This post will make a lot more context with this other post:
https://peakd.com/hive/@howo/how-to-participate-in-the-tesntets-this-week-full-guide

We'll hf at 1598817600 (30th of august at 20 UTC)

please run hf24 nodes with the branch restore_fix (we found a minor bug in the release candidate thanks to the previous iteration of the testnet)

You need to set the env var HIVE_HF24_TIME to 1598817600

like so:

export HIVE_HF24_TIME=1598817600 && ./programs/hived/hived

seeds:
(note that I bumped the port by one to avoid any unwanted collisions)

95.216.25.162:2003
95.216.25.162:2004

build instructions are in the post above, follow the hf24 guide, except change those things:

git checkout restore_fix instead of git checkout master

change the config to use the new seed nodes (remove the other ones):

p2p-seed-node = 95.216.25.162:2003 
p2p-seed-node = 95.216.25.162:2004

And run it with the new time (as I mentioned in my previous post pm2 is not mandatory:

pm2 start "export HIVE_HF24_TIME=1598817600 && ./programs/hived/hived -d testnethf24" --name hf24

The rest is identical.

Ps: if you already participated in the previous hard fork, it's easier to just delete your hive folder, clone it again and start fresh. (it's a bit longer because you have to recompile everything but if you're not too sure about what you're doing it's the easiest way)

Thanks for the info, I'm currently configuring my node to participate in tests.

One note: it should be git checkout restore_fix not git checkout restore-fix


Edit: I'm producing blocks ;)

p2p-seed-node = 165.22.87.22:2001
