Storj on QNAP NAS how to?

  1. Enable Container Station and ssh
  2. Generate your identity on PC/Mac, sign it with an authorization token and transfer the identity folder to your QNAP; or generate and sign it on your QNAP with app (it just can take a week rather a few hours on PC/Mac).
  3. Check your identity: Confirm the identity (if you already transferred an identity, you need to update path to the identity location in the check command).
  4. Login via ssh to QNAP
  5. Figure out what is your paths to the identity and data in the command line. If you used an qnap app, then you can execute this command to get paths:
docker inspect storjlabsSnContainer -f '{{.Mounts}}'
  1. Remove the QNAP app
  2. Run the setup step: Storage Node - Setup once, replacing "<identity-dir>" and "<storage-dir>" to their actual values (the < and > should be removed as well). Never run this command in the future for the same identity.
  3. Run a regular container: Storage Node - Run the node
  4. Check your logs: How do I check my logs? - Storj Node Operator Docs
