Running the Validator Node

Just copy and run all the commands in your terminal one-by-one and Hurraah!

Install docker:

Remove conflicting packages:

for pkg in docker.io docker-doc docker-compose docker-compose-v2 podman-docker containerd runc; do sudo apt-get remove $pkg; done

Setup apt repository:

# Add Docker's official GPG key:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ca-certificates curl
sudo install -m 0755 -d /etc/apt/keyrings
sudo curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc
sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc

# Add the repository to Apt sources:
echo \
  "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \
  $(. /etc/os-release && echo "$VERSION_CODENAME") stable" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
sudo apt-get update

Install:

sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin

Add user to the group:

sudo groupadd docker
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

Log-out and log back in to make the changes effective. You can logout via the following command:

logout

Running the node:

Run the following command in the terminal:

wget https://github.com/brahmGAN/ganchain-v2/releases/download/v2.0.0/gpunet_node.sh ; sudo chmod +x gpunet_node.sh ; ./gpunet_node.sh

Checking logs for this container:

Run the following command to see the logs:

docker logs GPUNetValidator
