Установка

Подготовка к работе​

Убедитесь, что у Вас есть:

  1. Компьютер с надежным интернет-соединением.
  2. Достаточно свободного места на диске (позже мы поможем Вам определить, сколько).
  3. Доступ администратора к Вашему компьютеру.

Что ожидать:

  • Синхронизация может занять от нескольких часов до одного дня.
  • Первоначальная синхронизация и плоттинг требуют значительных вычислительных ресурсов, так что Вы можете заметить, что компьютер работает медленнее на повседневных задачах до тех пор, пока не будет завершена синхронизация и плоттинг.
note

Please note that a wallet with a Substrate address is required to run the software.
To learn how to create a Substrate wallet, please visit our pages on SubWallet (recommended) or {polkadot.js} extension.

Перенаправление портов

To ensure proper communication between Space Acres and other peers, you need to forward ports 30333 and 30433 from your router to the PC running Space Acres. For more details, refer to the Port Forwarding Guide.

Step 2: Set Up Space Acres​

Now comes the exciting part—setting up your farm! Here's what you'll see on the first screen:

Space Acres ConfigurationSpace Acres Configuration

  1. Node path:

    • Здесь Space Acres будет хранить важные данные.
    • Pick a location with plenty of free space; it might be as simple as /Documents.

  2. Rewards address:

    • Сюда будут отправляться Ваши вознаграждения за фарминг.
    • It starts with su for SubWallet and with 5 for {Polkadot.js} extension.
    • Если у Вас его нет, нажмите Create wallet для создания кошелька.

  3. Path to Farm 0 and its size:

    • Здесь будут храниться Ваши плоты (данные для фарминга).
    • The size determines your probability of getting a reward on the Network. In most cases, larger plots (or larger farm size) will gain you more rewards.
    • The size could be set as a fixed size, e.g. 4TB, or 500GB, or as a percentage value of the available disk space.
    • If you prefer to have a few farms (e.g. you have some spare space on different SSD drives), you can click on Add farm to pledge some additional storage space.

    tip

    The screen above is just an example of configured setup screen, make sure to use your own Node path, *Rewards address, Path to farm 0 and its size, and Fixed size / Disk space percentage values

  4. Расширенная конфигурация (необязательна):

    • Toggle Reduce plotting CPU load (select this option if you're using your farming PC for other tasks)
    • Modify the default values for blockchain and DSN P2P ports
    • Toggle Faster Networking (selecting this option may increase the load on your router)
    tip

    Don't worry about this unless you're an experienced user.
