Please suggest me how to do a graceful exit

Mason36 · February 27, 2020, 3:56am

NO. I did not enter this command.

nerdatwork · February 27, 2020, 3:58am

If you read the guide carefully, you will notice what to enter as the first command.

storagenode exit-satellite

Mason36 · February 27, 2020, 4:00am

C:\Users\dhiwa>storagenode exit-satellite

Do you see 6 files in this location ?

Mason36 · February 27, 2020, 4:06am

No. But I see them in other location. i.e “C:\Users\dhiwa\Desktop\storj\identity\identity\Storj\Identity\storagenode”

nerdatwork · February 27, 2020, 4:07am

Copy the 6 files from desktop to C:\Users\dhiwa\AppData\Roaming\Storj\Identity\Storagenode

Mason36 · February 27, 2020, 4:10am

I can only see folders upto Roaming. Should I create the rest of the folders and copy the content there?

nerdatwork · February 27, 2020, 4:13am

Yes. This is the default location for your node’s identity.

Mason36 · February 27, 2020, 4:22am

what should I do after that?

nerdatwork · February 27, 2020, 4:28am

Execute the command

“C:\Program Files\Storj\Storage Node\storagenode.exe” exit-satellite

Now what should I do?
Should I just be online, until the GE is done?
How should I check the status?
Would there be any data left on my hard disk drive after the GE is done or not?

nerdatwork · February 27, 2020, 5:15am

You can try to exit only on satellite that didn’t disqualify your node. Enter that name when prompted. I think that’s europe and stefan satellites.

nerdatwork · February 27, 2020, 5:16am

Please read the guide, your questions are already answered in that post.
