LLMQ PoSe check on your Evonode setup through Dashmate

invalid@example.com (qwizzie) — Mon, 04 Nov 2024 05:07:08 +0000

**** Obsolete, due to Dashmate now having build-in Pose penalty scoring detection during dashmate stop ****

Dashmate users that want to stop their Dashmate in order to update their Core version, or update their Dashmate version or do server Maintenance or want to do a server reboot, first need to check if their Evonode is currently not involved in any LLMQ quorum, that give high PoSe Penalty scores when interrupted. To avoid these high PoSe Penalty scores or PoSe bans (interrupting...

Evonode upgrade tutorial

invalid@example.com (Ivan Shumkov) — Sat, 02 Nov 2024 17:46:25 +0000

There are three options to proceed with upgrading Evonode. Please choose one which is suitable for you:

Upgrade existing Dashmate node. If you already have Evomasternode with Dashmate that meets minimum requirements then you just need to update Dashmate and obtain SSL certificates.
Set up a dashmate node on a new host. If you are running an Evomasternode with dashd on a host that doesn’t match minimal system requirements we recommend setting up a new server and...

Hello,

Please can somebody explain how are this addresses works together.

Are Owner Address - Voting Address - feeSourceAddress

Should be generated inside same wallet as a Collateral Address?

Rules are same for EVO Nodes and regular nodes?

feeSourceAddress needs to be within same wallet as a Collateral Address in,
Or it can be within same wallet of PayOut Address witch is from a different wallet that's own Collateral Address.

Evonode Ubuntu & Docker daily logging

invalid@example.com (qwizzie) — Wed, 09 Oct 2024 06:55:16 +0000

You will need to create three seperate shell scripts : hardware.sh, docker.sh (first post) and monitor.sh (second post)
With regards to the first two :

hardware.sh and docker.sh will run every 24 hours and log their output in log files.
hardware.sh also contains a trigger alert, it will visually warn you when dashd Process Memory Reserve exceeds 85%

These two files will not be reboot resistant, they will stop daily logging after a reboot. You can also manually stop them by issuing
ps -aux...

Docker log files : verify size and optionally truncate to 0 bytes

invalid@example.com (qwizzie) — Sun, 01 Sep 2024 22:59:42 +0000

**** Obsolete due to dashmate now having docker log rotation ****

Let Dashmate users verify the size of the Docker log files of the Platform and Core containers and optionally reset / truncate it to 0 bytes.
Only do this if these log files are getting very very big, as having log files in place to analyse during this beta phase of Platform activation is important.

Step 1 : nano logsize.sh
Step 2 : add following code

Bash:

#!/bin/bash

# Function to truncate log file

Difference between masternode setup tools?

invalid@example.com (Theia) — Fri, 30 Aug 2024 11:55:12 +0000

I'm a bit lost with the different masternode setup tools mentioned in different guides:

Dashman (I understand this is obsolete)
Dashmate
Dash Masternode Tool
Dash Zeus

... plus various guides to do it all manually. I asked in the Zeus thread about differences, but only got the response that they're not the same. Hmm... ok, maybe that was not the best place to ask. They seemingly all do the same thing though. Can somebody please explain the...

System wide Masternode Setup with Systemd auto (re)start RFC

invalid@example.com (xkcd) — Wed, 31 Jul 2024 08:52:51 +0000

Hi Dash Commuity.

I have been working with @strophy on possibly upgrading the Dash Masternode setup guide to make the installation of Dash more inline with other packages, ie a proper installation of Dash in system wide directory /opt. The advantage of doing so, means the dashd daemon can then be controlled by systemd and made to start at boot and restart in event of a crash, it makes upgrading easy, it means the executables are managed by root alone, it...

Multiplexing masternodes on single VPS

invalid@example.com (xkcd) — Wed, 17 Jul 2024 17:04:20 +0000

This guide will attempt to show you how you can run more than one Masternode (MN) on a single VPS a technique I call multiplexing. To save space due to data redundancy the masternodes will share a common blockchain. The guide assumes you have setup your masternode as per guide https://www.dash.org/forum/threads/...e-setup-with-systemd-auto-re-start-rfc.39460/ and uses the VULTR hosting provider, because they offer additonal IPs for your hosting.

Masternode Docker

invalid@example.com (darkness) — Sat, 20 Apr 2024 15:41:35 +0000

Has anyone successfully managed to get a masternode working in docker?
I tried THIS, but couldn't get it to load up.
I have also seen some unofficial ones but not sure if it's wise to trust them.

WOW! I've been meaning to do this for awhile now, but finally pulled the trigger, hey.
Here is a simple script to check the way a user supplied list of nodes is currently voting in the DAO without relying on any snoppy third party like dash central, Nexus, or DMT.
Simply check this repo out with

How to create a no fuss Evo node in v19

invalid@example.com (xkcd) — Fri, 19 Jan 2024 18:27:46 +0000

Evo nodes aka High Performance nodes https://www.dash.org/hpmn-faq/ are Masternodes that will be required to run Platform services in v20 onwards, slated for release in December 2023*. This node type requires the collateralisation of 4000 Dash. During v19 the network will be in a transitory period where an Evo node can be registered, but is not yet required to run the full gamut of platform services. During v19, the Evo node will be paid 4 blocks in a row and get four votes with...

MasternodeMonitor : SMTP alerts for your VPS

invalid@example.com (chatgpt420) — Sun, 14 Jan 2024 11:11:53 +0000

Hello MNOs,

I've put together a python script to assist in monitoring, and hopefully rescuing, your VPS before incurring pose penalties.

This is achieved by monitoring CPU, memory and disk usage, and sending out an early warning email before you run out of resources.
In the event that memory usage climbs to 96%, the script will send out an email alert and immediately reboot the server to prevent a crash - not very elegant I know, but desperate times call for desperate measures!

Now the...
