Software Version (GitHash)

Node 0.7.1 (2972dbcd870da3b15919667cea05db18da8a39e8)

 

What you need to know:

  • Make sure your accounts are funded via the faucet at explorer.casperlabs.io before attempting to bond.

  • Run the Execution Engine first, before launching the node.

  • Delete the data directory if you have to upgrade the node software.

  • When generating Keys using Docker, you will need to change the owner from sudo to the user running the node. The command to do this is: (replace user with the username)

  • sudo chown user:user *

Observe your peers

 

 

 

  • curl -s localhost:40403/metrics | grep peers_alive


Install Rust





Run metrics at startup

 

 

Add the --metrics-prometheus to your node start command

Outcome:

  • Both JLeonY and Medha were able to peer up their node, send a bonding request, send a deployment and propose from their nodes. Their blocks appeared in the Explorer.
