Validator Commands
14min
Check the help file.
Add --help behind ANY validator command to get help on that command or subcommand (ie xandeum validators --help)
Check the machines connected to the cluster
Check the current and delinquent validators, stake and software version.
This will sort by highest skip-rate.
Show only delinquent validators by grep for the ⚠️ symbol
Follow the log file (it moves fast, can be combined with options such as pipe to grep)
To properly shut down a validator
Use exit command to:
- Check for upcoming leader slots
- Note: with our cluster size, we will almost always be missing leader slots by shutting down so we need to bypass this check with --min-idle-time
- Check cluster for delinquent stake
- Take local snapshot
- Stop your validator
Exit is holding for upcoming leader slot
NOTE: If you have a system service set up on the machine, then you also need to stop the service or it will auto-restart!
