Run the node

Without Cosmovisor

nolusd start

With Cosmovisor

Enable and start the service you created earlier:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable cosmovisor
sudo systemctl start cosmovisor

Check status:

sudo systemctl status cosmovisor

Tail logs:

journalctl -u cosmovisor -f

Check sync status

Once nolusd is running, the chain starts syncing. Sync time varies with your setup and the current chain size and can be very long without a snapshot.

curl http://localhost:26657/status | jq .result.sync_info.catching_up

• true - still syncing.
• false - caught up. Your node is now ready, and you can promote it to a validator.
