Install the software
⚠️ If you already have an existing Tezos installation, do not forget to backup and delete your ~/.tezos-node
and ~/.tezos-client
.
Alternative: Use docker
To join Qenanet with docker, open a shell in the container:
docker run -it --entrypoint=/bin/sh tezos/tezos:octez-v21.0-rc3
Alternative: Build the software
⚠️ If this is your first time installing Tezos, you may need to install a few dependencies.
cd
git clone git@gitlab.com:tezos/tezos.git
cd tezos
git checkout octez-v21.0-rc3
opam init # if this is your first time using OPAM
make build-deps
eval $(opam env)
make
export PATH=$HOME/tezos:$PATH
Join the Qenanet network
Run the following commands:
octez-node config init --network https://teztnets.com/qenanet
octez-node run --rpc-addr 127.0.0.1:8732
Bake on the Qenanet network
To improve reliability of the chain, you can take part in the consensus by becoming a baker. In that case, you will need some test tokens from the faucet.
If you are not a bootstrap baker, you need to register your key as a delegate using your alias or pkh
. For instance:
octez-client register key mykey as delegate
On a modern Tezos network, you will need to stake to declare your security bond. You will need to have access to at least 6000tz of stake to get baking rights. For instance:
octez-client stake <amount> for mykey
You may now launch the baker process.
octez-baker-PtQenaB1 run with local node ~/.tezos-node mykey --liquidity-baking-toggle-vote pass
You may run the accuser as well:
octez-accuser-PtQenaB1 run
Note that you need a minimum amount of tez to get baking rights. If you are not a bootstrap baker, it will take you several cycles to start baking.
💡 Now that you are baking, you are responsible for the network health. Please ensure that the baking processes will keep running in the background. You may want to use screen, tmux, nohup or systemd. Also make sure that the baking processes will restart when your machine restarts.
