Check your disk server :

The disk server is simulation, reference how to setup LVM you can check here Lvm - Ubuntu Wiki , if you have new reference please comment :slight_smile:

Create User and mount to disk /data/testnet :

useradd -m -d /data/testnet/subspace-s /bin/bash subspace

Give password to the new user :

passwd subspace

execute the usermod to add the user to the sudo group, as follows:

usermod -aG sudo subspace

Switch to the new user by using the command:

su - subspace

Create new directory, following this command :

mkdir -p ${HOME}/bin
mkdir -p ${HOME}/systemd

Download Node Executable and Farmer Executable :

Version 2 - for older processors since ~2009 and some old VMs

cd $HOME/bin

wget -O subspace-node https://github.com/subspace/subspace/releases/download/gemini-3f-2023-sep-05/subspace-node-ubuntu-x86_64-v2-gemini-3f-2023-sep-05

wget -O subspace-farmer https://github.com/subspace/subspace/releases/download/gemini-3f-2023-sep-05/subspace-farmer-ubuntu-x86_64-v2-gemini-3f-2023-sep-05

Version skylake - For newer processors since ~2015

wget -O subspace-node https://github.com/subspace/subspace/releases/download/gemini-3f-2023-sep-05/subspace-node-ubuntu-x86_64-skylake-gemini-3f-2023-sep-05

wget -O subspace-farmer https://github.com/subspace/subspace/releases/download/gemini-3f-2023-sep-05/subspace-farmer-ubuntu-x86_64-skylake-gemini-3f-2023-sep-05

Create new directori in /app/testnet LVM :

sudo mkdir -p /app/testnet/subspace

Copy binary node-subspace and farmer-subspace to /app/testnet/subspace :

sudo cp subscape-node /app/testnet/subspace
sudo cp subspace-farmer /app/testnet/subspace

Create service for start the node using the following command :

cd $HOME/systemd

export USERNAME=$(whoami)

cat > ${HOME}/systemd/subspace-node.service  <<EOF
[Unit]
Description=Subspace Node Service
After=network.target

    --state-pruning archive \
    --validator \
    --name "change_with_your_name_validator"

[Install]

Create service for start the farmer using the following command :

cd $HOME/systemd

export USERNAME=$(whoami)

cat > ${HOME}/systemd/subspace-farmer.service  <<EOF
[Unit]
Description=Subspace Farmer Service
After=network.target

Linking to Systemd :

sudo ln -sf ${HOME}/systemd/subspace-node.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo ln -sf ${HOME}/systemd/subspace-farmer.service /etc/systemd/system/

Reload Daemon :

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Enable Service when booting :

sudo systemctl enable subspace-node.service
sudo systemctl enable subspace-farmer.service

Start service :

sudo systemctl start subspace-node.service
sudo systemctl start subspace-farmer.service

Check Service :

sudo systemctl status subspace-node.service
sudo journalctl -fu subspace-node.service

sudo systemctl status subspace-farmer.service
sudo journalctl -fu subspace-farmer.service

Log subspace-node and subspace-farmer :

Enjoy :call_me_hand:

Have you done lvm for the farmer plot? If there is an error, please explain what the error is, if I can help. if you don’t know what LVM is please visit this LVM: The Powerful Tool for Managing Storage on Linux Systems - Services

If you have multiple drives, it is recommended to use them directly with farmer rather through LVM or other methods of aggregating multiple drives into one.
