Second storagenode on same machine

Node Operators FAQ
1

Hello,
I am trying to setup the second storj node on my machine.
Is the structure of identity fine?

/root/.local/share/storj/identity/storagenode/
/root/.local/share/storj/identity/storagenode2/

I see in the identity folder the next file: revocations.db
Is this linked to first node ? (storagenode)
Will storagenode2 try to create this (revocations.db) file again and rewrite the first one?

Thanks

Just to say that there is some advice to keep a copy of the identity with the storagenode data that belongs to it. This is so if you lose /root you still have your identity with the data disk.

I have these commands, are they fine for running two nodes (storagenode and storagenode2) on the same machine?

docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --stop-timeout 300 \
    -p 28967:28967 \
    -p 127.0.0.1:14002:14002 \
    -e WALLET="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" \
    -e EMAIL="xxxxxxx@gmail.com" \
    -e ADDRESS="xxxxxxxxxxxxxx:28967" \
    -e STORAGE="1.2TB" \
    --mount type=bind,source="/root/.local/share/storj/identity/storagenode",destination=/app/identity \
    --mount type=bind,source="/data/storj",destination=/app/config \
    --name storagenode storjlabs/storagenode:latest
    
docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --stop-timeout 300 \
    -p 28968:28967 \
    -p 127.0.0.1:14003:14002 \
    -e WALLET="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" \
    -e EMAIL="xxxxxxx@gmail.com" \
    -e ADDRESS="xxxxxxxxxxxxxx:28968" \
    -e STORAGE="1.9TB" \
    --mount type=bind,source="/root/.local/share/storj/identity/storagenode2",destination=/app/identity \
    --mount type=bind,source="/storj2",destination=/app/config \
    --name storagenode2 storjlabs/storagenode:latest

Looks like OK.
If the directories set actually exist with the good rights, they should run properly.

I would like to suggest you to move data inside subfolder on the mounted drive - in case if mount fail the node will not start and would not be disqualified for lost data.
