Connecting to mainnet as a validator

Warning

This is blockchain software. Do not use on a computer or device with sensitive or important personal data. Using this software will require opening firewall ports. Using this software may result in heavy internet data usage. Use at your own risk.

Windows
  1. Pre-requisite; you should have registered as a validator, in the Quantum Coin mainnet.
  2. Run Steps 1 to 9 in the instructions at Connecting to mainnet, to download and configure your computer for running the validator node. Do not run the 10th step (the last one) for connecting to mainnet.
  3. Run the following command to set the validator address environment variable.

    Windows
    set DP_ACC_ADDRESS=YOUR_VALIDATOR_ADDRESS
    Example:
    set DP_ACC_ADDRESS=0xAa044ccF6BAD46F0de9fb4dF6b7d9fF02D2e195f
    Mac
    export DP_ACC_ADDRESS=YOUR_VALIDATOR_ADDRESS
    Example:
    export DP_ACC_ADDRESS=0xAa044ccF6BAD46F0de9fb4dF6b7d9fF02D2e195f
    Linux
    export DP_ACC_ADDRESS=YOUR_VALIDATOR_ADDRESS
    Example:
    export DP_ACC_ADDRESS=0xAa044ccF6BAD46F0de9fb4dF6b7d9fF02D2e195f
  4. Run the following command to connect to the mainnet. You may additionally have to add exclusion in your anti-virus software, if the software shows a prompt. You will be prompted to enter the validator key password. If successful, you should see your node connecting to the blockchain and blocks getting created.

    Windows
    connectvalidator.cmd
    Mac
    source ./connectvalidator.sh
    Linux
    ./connectvalidator.sh
  5. To close the blockchain node client, do not close the window or logout or shutdown directly. Instead, press CTRL+C.
