2. Install Docker
If Docker is already installed, you can skip this step. Alternatively, you can ask ChatGPT for help with Docker installation. The following steps are for reference.
First pull the docker image using the following command:
Note: If you encounter problems or fail to pull the image, first check the network problem, then find the solution to the error on chatgpt, and follow the gpt prompts. Docker usage problems need to be solved by the user. If you can't solve them, you can ask our technical support
sudo docker pull privasea/acceleration-node-beta
4. Node program configuration
Run the node program as the root user:
Use the following command to switch to the root user. Enter the password for your current system account. Upon a successful switch, the terminal will display the root user identifier.
sudo su
Create the program running directory and navigate to it:
mkdir -p /privasea/config && cd /privasea
Get the keystore file
Use an existing wallet keystore file or execute the following command to generate a new one:
sudo docker run -it -v "/privasea/config:/app/config" \
privasea/acceleration-node-beta:latest ./node-calc new_keystore
Note: The program will prompt you to enter a password, please remember this password for future use. The generated keystore file will have a corresponding node address, Please keep it properly to avoid losing it, it will be used in the dashboard configuration.
Enter password for a new key: # Enter wallet password
Enter password again to verify: # Re-enter the password for confirmation
After successful creation of the wallet, the program will display information similar to the following:
node address: 0xf07c3eF23ae7BEb8CD8bA5fF546E35Fd4b332B34
# This is the node address you generated, used for linking in the dashboard
node filename: keystore:///app/config/UTC--2025-01-06T06-11-07.485797065Z--f07c3ef23ae7beb8cd8ba5ff546e35fd4b332b34
Instructions: 0xf07c3eF23ae7BEb8CD8bA5fF546E35Fd4b332B34 is an example and may differ in your case.
Rename the keystore file in the/privasea/config folder to wallet_keystore:
#Check if there is a keystore file in the /privasea/config directory:
cd /privasea/config && ls
#Rename the keystore file you noted in the previous step:
mv ./UTC--2025-01-06T06-11-07.485797065Z--f07c3ef23ae7beb8cd8ba5ff546e35fd4b332b34 ./wallet_keystore
# Replace UTC--2025-01-06T06-11-07.485797065Z--f07c3ef23ae7beb8cd8ba5ff546e35fd4b332b34 with the name of the keystore file you found.
#Check that the wallet_keystore file in the /privasea/config folder was modified correctly:
ls
5. Link node address and reward address
se the wallet address corresponding to the keystore file to link it with the reward address on DeepSea dashboard.
Click set up my node, you will see two pop-up windows of the wallet, you need to click to confirm, and your configuration is complete
6. Start the node
Run the command to start the Privanetix(acceleration) node:
# Switch to the program running directory
cd /privasea/
# Run the compute node command:
sudo docker run -d -v "/privasea/config:/app/config" \
-e KEYSTORE_PASSWORD=123456 \
privasea/acceleration-node-beta:latest
# Parameter Explanation:
# EYSTORE_PASSWORD: The password corresponding to the keystore file
# /privasea/config: The local directory where the wallet_keystore file is stored
7. View the node health
# Command to check the node's running status:
sudo docker logs -f eb723c38e3e6283f6c9d50512828408bd6df2fbba22d1991daa459778d3e73bc
#Parameter Explanation:
# eb723c38e3e6283f6c9d50512828408bd6df2fbba22d1991daa459778d3e73bc is the container ID from the previous operation.
Startup successful, as shown in the figure below.
If unsuccessful, please check the following:
8. Stop the node
# Command to stop the node:
sudo docker ps -q --filter "ancestor=privasea/acceleration-node-beta:latest" | xargs --no-run-if-empty docker stop
# Run the command below; if there is no output, it indicates that the node has been stopped.
sudo docker ps | grep privasea/acceleration-node-beta:latest
