Create and Execute Restore Script

1. Log into your node using your RSA key auth

2. Set the $FQDN environment variable - you will need to type this command and change <FQDN> to the Fully-Qualified Domain Name of your node

   Code Block
   FQDN=<FQDN>

   
   

3. Check the sha256 hash of the backup file and and verify it is the same as on your local machine

   Code Block
   sha256sum backup.$FQDN.7z

   
   

4. Stop zend and the tracker if you're using monit and PM2

   Code Block
   sudo monit stop zend && pm2 stop 0

   
   

5. Stop zend and the tracker if you're using systemd

   Code Block
   sudo systemctl stop zend zentracker

   
   

6. Remove '#' from the line: '#7z x tor.7z -ozen' and '#cp /home/$USER/.temp/zen/onion_private_key /home/$USER/.zen/', if using tor

   Code Block

   cat <<EOF > ~/restore.sh #!/bin/bash #Create a temp Directory mkdir ~/.temp && cd ~/.temp #Extract Encrypted Archive of Backup Files 7z x ~/backup.$FQDN.7z #Extract zend file(s) 7z x ~/.temp/wallet.7z -ozen #7z x ~/.temp/tor.7z -ozen #Extract nodetracker config file 7z x ~/.temp/config.7z -ozen #Copy needed files cpmv ~/home/$USER/.temp/wallet.dat ~/home/$USER/.zen/ cp /home/$USER/.tempmv ~/config.json /home~/$USER/nodetracker/config/ #cp /home/$USER/.temp/#mv ~/onion_private_key /home/$USER~/.zen/ #Erase Temporary Files cd ~/ rm -rf ~/.temp EOF

   
   

7.  Make the restore script executable

   Code Block
   chmod u+x ~/restore.sh

   
   

8. Install 7zip

   Code Block
   sudo apt install p7zip-full -y

   
   

9. Run the restore script and create and enter password when prompted

   Code Block
   ~/restore.sh

   
   

10. Restore tor, if installed by creating the following script and executing it, otherwise, proceed to step 11 or 12

    Code Block
    cat <<EOF > ~/tor_script.sh #!/bin/bash sudo sed -i 's/#ControlPort 9051/ControlPort 9051/g' /etc/tor/torrc sudo sed -i 's/#CookieAuthentication 1/CookieAuthentication 1/g' /etc/tor/torrc sudo su -c "echo 'CookieAuthFileGroupReadable 1' >> /etc/tor/torrc" sudo su -c "echo 'LongLivedPorts 9033' >> /etc/tor/torrc" sudo systemctl restart tor.service EOF

    
    

    Code Block
    chmod u+x ~/tor_script.sh

    
    

    Code Block
    sudo ~/tor_script.sh

    
    

11. Start zend and the tracker if you're using monit and PM2

    Code Block
    sudo monit start zend && pm2 start 0

    
    

12. Start zend and the tracker if you're using systemd

    Code Block
    sudo systemctl start zend zentracker
