Restore A Validator
A validator can be completely restored on a new XPLA Chain node with the following set of keys:
- The Consensus key, stored in
~/.xpla/config/priv_validator.json - The mnemonic to the validator wallet
Danger
Before proceeding, ensure that the existing validator is not active. Double voting has severe slashing consequences.
To Restore a Validator:
- Setup a full XPLA Chain node synced up to the latest block.
- Replace the
~/.xpla/config/priv_validator.jsonfile of the new node with the associated file from the old node, then restart your node.
