Script to bootstrap the syncing when a new peer/validator join to BitCanna-Cosmos.
When a new peer tries to join a running chain it can take days to fully synchronise and this can take up a huge amount of disk space.
StateSync is a feature which would allow a new node to receive a snapshot of the application state without downloading blocks or going through consensus. Deploying the new State Sync function on StateSync servers could help to boost the synchronizing of new peers/validators. It also reduces the disk space usage.
Bitcanna StateSync servers will include this function in mainnet.
This script will download the binary and the genesis by you and will setup the peers and seeds.
Don't start the BitCanna daemon manually, the script will do it for you and will synchronize the whole chain. Press CTRL + C to stop it when you see the peer synced with last block
If you are running a validator/peer, this script will save space in disk for you, will backup your current data and config folder and resync in several minutes. Very important, daemon should turned off if is not a clean installation.
- Download the script:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BitCannaCommunity/statesync_client/main/statesync_client.sh
chmod +x statesync_client.sh
As a previous step before launch the script, edit it with nano tool and change the rpc StateSync peers if it is needed.
- Then launch the script (CTLR + C to stop it):
./statesync_client.sh

This script is experimental, StateSync is experimental, run it at your own risk, make your own backups of the configuration and do not run it before reading the contents of the script.
