Reset Your Nodes

Occasionally, we might ask you to reset the Nodes on your device. This might be if they have stopped functioning properly, or if it's needed to update their code.

Note: Resetting your Nodes will clear all their data along with any attos locally stored on your device. So if you are running Nodes without an ETH wallet address attached, which automatically forwards them on, you'll lose your earnings.

If you're happy with that, here's how to reset:

If you are a Node Launchpad user

1. Press O to get to the Options screen

2. Press Ctrl + R

3. Type the word reset and Press Enter. Your nodes will reset and refresh in the background. Sometimes this can take a few moments

4. Press Q to Launchpad, and then re-open it

5. Press Ctrl + G to add your Nodes again, and Press Enter to start them

And you are set to go!

If you are a CLI (Node Manager) user

Here's the series of commands for advanced users already using the Node Manager CLI tool. After resetting, and while adding nodes again, note the additional arguments that should be used each time depending, on your circumstances. In particular the --rewards-address argument which allows you to attach your wallet address to each node:

1. safeup update (to make sure you are on the latest version of the Node Manager)
2. safenode-manager reset
3. safenode-manager add (with the following args)
  --count <# of nodes>      => If not specified, only a single node is added
  --rewards-address <your ethereum wallet address> evm-arbitrum-sepolia => Must be specified to store your earned attos. Note: this is also the address where your rewards will be paid after the TGE in after January 2025.
  --data-dir-path <path>    => optional, if you have a second hard disk where you want to store the data to.
  --log-dir-path <path>     => optional, path to store the log files.
  --home-network            => optional, if you're behind a NAT/home router/without port forwarding
  --upnp                    => optional, if you have enabled upnp in your router, mutually exclusive with home-network
  --node-port <single/range of ports> => If --home-network or --upnp is not provided, then you have to portforward a set of ports and provide them here. We accept a single port i.e., 12000 or a range i.e., 12000-12010. The number of ports here should match the number of nodes speicified using --count
  --enable-metrics-server   => optional, if you want the stats to be displayed inside the launchpad
4. safenode-manager start --interval 2000
5. safenode-manager status --details
