One of my masternodes got stuck and I messed everything up and lost my place. o well


So, how do you restart a masternode automatically?

You can use cron to do this.

When logged in under your user account, type:

crontab -e

You may be prompted for which text editor to use. Select your preference.

At the end of the file, enter:

@reboot /home/ubuntu/kore/src/kored -daemon -reindex >/dev/null 2>&1

Save and close the file.

To check your entry, you can type:

crontab -l

To test it, reboot your server with:

sudo reboot

When it comes back online, check to see that the masternode is running.

ps ax | grep kored

You should see /home/ubuntu/kore/src/kored -daemon -reindex  in the list of running processes.

To further check it, run:

kored-cli getinfo

kored-cli masternode debug

kored-cli masternode status


If you know a better way please advise.
Cheers
