Add a new node to the testnet

Network
21

HI @ przemzer , hi everybody

** THE NODE
is fully synchronized with
** THE NETWORK.

if
~~ THE HEIGHT OF YOUR NODE // “height”: 14102588,
should be equal to
~~THE CURRENT NETWORK HEIGHT. // ???

here is the output of the command:

$ lisk-core node:info --pretty

{
    "version": "3.0.3",
    "networkVersion": "3.1",
    "networkIdentifier": "15f0dacc1060e91818224a94286b13aa04279c640bd5d6f193182031d133df7c",
    "lastBlockID": "d3ec08f22161fcc79006c2458f6ff344c5e8bc663e3021121d982f8cbe3cf3ae",
    "height": 14102588,// the height of my node 
    "genesisHeight": 14075260,
    "finalizedHeight": 14075260,
    "syncing": true,  // 
    "unconfirmedTransactions": 0,
     //......
}

MY QUESTION IS WHERE CAN I FIND THE:

<< ~~THE CURRENT NETWORK HEIGHT. // ??? >>

FROM THIS OUTPUT

“syncing”: true, // ???

Thank you.

also "syncing": true means your node is not synced and is currently syncing

Hi coah @przemer

The probleme is now the synchrinization is too slow and I face the following error:

** “height”: 16133728**

MY BLOCK HEIGHT: 15755085

What is the explaination of this please?

thank you

I’m not sure why you’re getting the error, but to speed up the syncing process you should import a snapshot, read more about it here → Resetting and synchronizing a node - Lisk Core Docs
Short instruction:

  • Turn off the node
  • lisk-core blockchain:download --network=testnet
  • lisk-core blockchain:import blockchain.db.tar.gz --force
  • Start the node
