Run Node
If the build succeed you should now have the
cosmware cli in your path (of the cosmware user). Try invoking with cosmwared and you should see output likeStargate CosmosHub App
Usage:
newared [command]
Available Commands:
add-genesis-account Add a genesis account to genesis.json
collect-gentxs Collect genesis txs and output a genesis.json file
config Create or query an application CLI configuration file
debug Tool for helping with debugging your application
export Export state to JSON
gentx Generate a genesis tx carrying a self delegation
help Help about any command
....
Now we can initialize and join the network
- 1.Initialize
export CHAIN_ID=arnhemia-01
export MONIKER_NAME="<moniker name>"
newared init "${MONIKER_NAME}" --chain-id ${CHAIN_ID}
Name | Chain ID | Status |
|---|---|---|
Arnhemia | arnhemia-01 | Testnet Incentivized |
Batavia | batavia-02 | Testnet Incentivized |
Cartenz | cartenz-03 | Testnet Incentivized |
Name | Chain ID | Status |
|---|---|---|
Neware Chain | neware-01 | Mainnet |
Replacing
<moniker name> with your desired name.- 1.Fetch the genesis
genesis.json& addrbook.json file
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gitshock-labs/testnet-list/master/testnet/arnhemia -O $HOME/.arnhemia/config/genesis.json
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gitshock-labs/testnet-list/master/testnet/arnhemia -O $HOME/.arnhemia/config/addrbook.json
Now try to start the network
$ newared start
[email protected]:~$ newared start

And then a whole bunch of log messages while your node is catching up. If this is now verified working it's time to install it as a system level service so it always starts with the machine
Drop out of the cosmwared user if you're still in that terminal session. Write exit or type ctrl+d on your keyboard.
(E) Create a service definition file in /etc/systemd/system/cosmwared.service. Example file that fits with our cosmwared install and cosmware runtime user :
[Unit]
Description=Neware Chain Daemon
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
User=neware
ExecStart=/home/cosmware/go/bin/newared start --log_level error
Restart=on-abort
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
[Service]
LimitNOFILE=65535
- 1.Reload your systemctl
sudo systemctl daemon-reloadand enable the servicesudo systemctl enable newared - 2.And finally start the service with
sudo systemctl start newared - 3.Check the status of the service with
systemctl status newared.service- it should return something like
cosmware.service - Neware Chain Daemon

Once your node is synced. it is time to make it a validator. this can be done on a seperate machine if preferred.
create a key that will be the validators key. I have chosen the creative name of 'validator'
newared keys add validator
copy the seed phrase and put it somewhere safe. you will need to also make note of the address "gtfx1..." and use that in the faucet to get some coins. you can check your balance via
newared query bank balances neware....
The next part is associating your node with your account, creating the validator
export PUBKEY=$( newared tendermint show-validator)
export CHAIN_ID=arnhemia-01
export MONIKER_NAME="<your moniker>"
cosmwared tx staking create-validator --moniker="${MONIKER_NAME}" \
--amount=1000000ugtfx \
--gas-prices=1ugtfx \
--pubkey=$PUBKEY \
--from=validator \
--yes \
--node=tcp://localhost:26657 \
--chain-id=${CHAIN_ID} \
--commission-max-change-rate=0.01 \
--commission-max-rate=0.20 \
--commission-rate=0.10 \
--min-self-delegation=1
now your node should be present.
newared query staking validators | grep details
please remember to also back up $HOME/.cosmware/config/priv_validator_key.json if you lose this, you are toast.
you should modify /etc/security/limits.conf and add
* soft nofile 65535
* hard nofile 65535
you can then modify the config.toml to increase connections. This may cost you more in ingress/egress charges.
max_open_connections = 1900
max_num_inbound_peers = 50
max_num_outbound_peers = 50
