Choose: 2

What would you like to do? (default = stats)

Choose: 1

 2. Export genesis configurations
 3. Remove genesis configuration

Choose: 2

7 - Rename File for genesis.json

Open Terminal in Folder of your Project

 mv YOUR-NETWORK-NAME.json genesis.json && rm -rf YOUR-NETWORK-NAME-harmony.json

8 - Modify the Genesis file

Alter period of 1 for 0.

 "clique": {
     "period": 0,
     "epoch": 30000
   }

9 - Initialize the Nodes

Open Terminal in Folder of your Project

./utils/geth --datadir validators/validator1 init genesis.json

./utils/geth --datadir validators/validator2 init genesis.json

./utils/geth --datadir validators/validator3 init genesis.json

10 - Run the Nodes

Fullnode Without Validator

nohup ../../utils/geth --nousb --datadir=$pwd --syncmode 'full' --port 30311 --rpc --rpcaddr 0.0.0.0 --rpccorsdomain "" --rpcport "8547" --rpcapi "db, eth, net, web3, personal" --ws --wsport 8548 --wsaddr 0.0.0.0 --wsorigins "" --wsapi "web3, eth" &

Validator1

cd validators/validator1 && ../../utils/geth --nousb --datadir=$pwd --syncmode 'full' --port 30310 --miner.gasprice 0 --miner.gastarget 470000000000 --http --http.addr 'localhost' --http.port 8545 --http.api admin,eth,miner,net,txpool,personal,web3 --mine --allow-insecure-unlock --unlock "PUBLIC-KEY-VALIDATOR1" --password password.txt

11 - Create static-nodes.json file

At this stage, you will create a static-nodes.json with all the Enode that was previously created.

]

Copy static-nodes.json for validators

cp static-nodes.json validators/validator1/static-nodes.json && cp static-nodes.json validators/validator2/static-nodes.json && cp static-nodes.json validators/validator3/static-nodes.json

12 - Run Validators

Open Terminal in Folder of your Project

cd scripts && bash validator1.sh

Open new Terminal

cd scripts && bash validator2.sh

Open new Terminal

cd scripts && bash validator3.sh
