Node Snapshot Testnet Side

You can use the node snapshot below to get the block height according to the latest snapshot file we uploaded, we usually update the snapshot every 12/24 hours "UTC". With node snapshots, you can save storage space and time to sync your nodes.

Instructions with terminal

Note*

- If snapshot info doesn't show data, it means our server is down.
- Contact us if you need help / report.
- Ignore red text if you are not a validator.
- If you are a validator that uses a single node, make sure to back up priv_validator_key.json and priv_validator_state.json. Security reason
  • Install requirement if don't have: 
    sudo apt install lz4 -y
  • Stop node :
    sudo systemctl stop sided
     Some also use this :
    systemctl --user stop sided

    • For Validator node

  • Back up priv_validator_key.json in safe place: 
                                
# default path
# $HOME/.side/config/priv_validator_key.json
  • Back up priv_validator_state.json: 
    cp $HOME/.side/data/priv_validator_state.json $HOME/.side/priv_validator_state.json.bak
  • Reset chain data:
    sided tendermint unsafe-reset-all --home $HOME/.side --keep-addr-book
  • Delete wasm:
    • Usually the wasm path is located at `$HOME/.chain-dir`, but if it is not there, you can customize it. 
    rm -r $HOME/.side/wasm
  • Download Snapshot Data ~ Including wasm files: 
    curl -o - -L https://snapshot-de-1.genznodes.dev/side/side-680131.tar.lz4 | lz4 -c -d - | tar -x -C $HOME/.side
  • Validator node move priv_validator_state.json that was backed up earlier: 
    mv $HOME/.side/priv_validator_state.json.bak $HOME/.side/data/priv_validator_state.json
  • Restart node:
    sudo systemctl restart sided
journalctl -fu sided -o cat
     Some also use this :
    systemctl --user restart sided
journalctl --user -fu sided -o cat
