Set up a Keystore file on a P-Rep Node

1. Export your keystore file first

Export your Keystore file whitch you registered in. You can see how to get the Keystore file from this link.

2. Place your keystore file in the proper path

The keystore file needs to be exported and stored in the cert directory. Below is a directory structure under the docker-compose.yml

|-- docker-compose.yml   
|-- data  → data directory            
    |-- mainnet  → block DB directory 
    |-- log  → log directory
|-- cert  → keytore or cert key directory
    |-- YOUR_KEYSTORE_FILE  → put your keystore file

Important - you should put your keystore file under the /cert folder.

3. Rename Keystore file simply

Enter a short name for the keystore file (recommended).

4. Import your keystore file into docker-compose.yml

If your keystore file name is textKeystore then the docker-compose.yml file looks like this:

$ cat docker-compose.yml

version: "3"
services:
prep-node:
    image: "iconloop/prep-node:1910211829xc2286d"
    container_name: "prep-mainnet"
    network_mode: host     
    restart: "always"
    environment:
        NETWORK_ENV: "mainnet"
        LOG_OUTPUT_TYPE: "file"
        SWITCH_BH_VERSION3: "10324749"
        CERT_PATH: "/cert"
        LOOPCHAIN_LOG_LEVEL: "DEBUG"
        ICON_LOG_LEVEL: "DEBUG"       
        FASTEST_START: "yes" # Restore from lastest snapshot DB
        PRIVATE_KEY_FILENAME: "testKeystore" # only file name
        PRIVATE_PASSWORD: "testKeystorepassword"
    cap_add:
        - SYS_TIME      
    volumes:
        - ./data:/data # mount a data volumes
        - ./cert:/cert # Automatically generate cert key files here
    ports:
        - 9000:9000
        - 7100:7100

Also, you can see the directory path as below:

|-- docker-compose.yml   
|-- data  → data directory            
    |-- mainnet  → block DB directory 
    |-- log  → log directory
|-- cert  → keytore or cert key directory
    |-- testKeystore  → put your keystore file

Troubleshooting

Q: How to check if container is running or not

The docker ps command shows the list of running docker containers.

$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID   IMAGE                                                          COMMAND                CREATED              STATUS                          PORTS                                                                 NAMES
0de99e33cdc9     iconloop/prep-node:1910211829xc2286d    "/src/entrypoint.sh"      2 minutes ago        Up 2 minutes(healthy)    0.0.0.0:7100->7100/tcp, 0.0.0.0:9000->9000/tcp prep_prep_1

You should look at the STATUS field to see if the container is running up and in healthy state.

Inside the container, there is a healthcheck script running with the following configuration. It will return unhealthy when it fails.

Healthcheck option value
retries 4
interval 30s
timeout 20s
start-period 60s

The container can have three states:

  • starting - container just starts
  • healthy - when the health check passes
  • unhealthy - when the health check fails

If the container does not start properly or went down unexpectedly, please check the booting.log. Below is the log messages on success.

$ cat data/PREP-MainNet/log/booting_${DATE}.log

Q: How to find error

Error log messages example

Grep the ERROR messages from the log files to find the possible cause of the failure.

$ cat data/PREP-MainNet/log/booting_${DATE}.log | grep ERROR

Q: How to monitor resources

We recommend the following tools for resource monitoring

  1. Network monitoring - iftop, nethogs, vnstat
  2. CPU/Memory monitoring - top, htop
  3. Disk I/O monitoring - iostat, iotop
  4. Docker monitoring - docker stats, ctop
