RE: upvu.proxy 증인 보팅 조건 및 보팅 현황

in #upvu3 years ago

I like what you are doing! Now all witnesses who do something good for Steem and care for a stable network by providing a seed node get a chance to show their full potential. Really great to see this finally happening :)

Hi, I have a question. I am running a witness node in a dedicated server. is it possible to run a seed node on the same server? I guess the block data can be shared between the seed node and the witness node. Any reference to run a seed node? Thanks a lot!

That would be a very bad decision security-wise. The witness node should be running on an unknown server, so it can not be attacked by someone. The seed node is public and should always be running on an own server.

You just need to run a simple node (no account history needed) on a different machine and open the configured UDP port (default is 2001). If you are using docker, you need to EXPOSE the port in the Dockerfile.

You can use the seed node as backup witness (before running security related updates on your main witness server, just switch your signing key to that of the backup node, so you can still produce blocks while updating your main server).

I see. Now I know more about a seed node. Thanks.
I will try to run a seed on a separate machine.
