@xeroc IIUC only one node will be producing blocks, with all witnesses on it?

but I still have a few questions to this list from point 12 ii and above

Use the WIF private key you copied earlier from the ~/brain_key.json file unlocked >>> import_key 5yourPrivateKeyStartsWith5...

>>> import_key accoutname 5KgFzmuA8FXMgFzmuA8FgFzmuA8FgFzmuA8F true
point 14
but I don't have any file here :

tail: cannot open ~/testnet/cli_wallet/wallet.json for reading: No such file or directory

Sorry all, I had poor syntax in my README file. There are three (3) parameters for import_key
Code: [Select]
import_key <account_name> <WIF_private_key> <bool>There for it should look something like:
Code: [Select]
unlocked >>> import_key fox 5ALLprivateKeysStartsWith5andAbunchOfChars true
Also, I neglected to create the /home/$USER_NAME/testnet/cli_wallet folder prior to launching the cli_wallet, so it was unable to save the wallet file. I have now added that to the script so it 'should' function properly. Also, I added the web socket RPC flag to the wallet startup. The relevant code changes are here:
Code: [Select]
##################################################################################################
# Create a script to launch the cli_wallet using a wallet file stored at                         #
# /home/$USER_NAME/$PROJECT/cli_wallet/wallet.json                                               #
##################################################################################################
mkdir /home/$USER_NAME/$PROJECT/cli_wallet/
cat >/home/$USER_NAME/launch-$PROJECT-wallet.sh <<EOL
/usr/bin/$CLI_WALLET -w /home/$USER_NAME/$PROJECT/cli_wallet/wallet.json \
                     -s ws://$LOCAL_IP:$RPC_PORT \
-H 127.0.0.1:$WALLET_HTTP_RPC_PORT \
-r 127.0.0.1:$WALLET_WS_RPC_PORT
EOL
chmod +x /home/$USER_NAME/launch-$PROJECT-wallet.sh

it seems like this link is broken:

I've created and synchronize my new Azure DS12 :)
but I still have a few questions to this list from point 12 ii and above

true

whether this account must contain TEST tokens?

A 32GB, 8 CPU core node on vultr.com is priced at $0.238 / hour.

The are two 32GB options on bithost, one designated "(high memory)", not sure what that means:

1) 32GB
    Monthly Price    $448.00
    Hourly Price    $0.6667

2) 32GB (high memory):
    Monthly Price    $336.00
    Hourly Price    $0.5

One of these (I believe it's Vultr) is a Digital Ocean reseller. Both can take Bitcoin as payment.

I will be researching other VPS hosting options this weekend, as well as deployment options.

Here is a good tutorial how to set up a test net node thanks to Fox: https://github.com/ryanRfox/BitSharesTESTNET

Good work.

Some more pictures made during my personal testing:


I'd like to thank BTS-Munich for providing some funding to obtain a think machine for the public API node.
You can find more data about the machine (also during stress testing) on
http://stats.bitshares.eu/netdata/

I am currently pushing some load on the testnet to see if the frontend and stuff works as desired.

Looks promising

Hey there,
I finally picked a date for the testnet stress test:

       15th March beginning around 3pm UTC.

Organization
I would like to invite everyone (in particular the witness node operators) to join this Telegram channel:
https://t.me/joinchat/AAAAAA0N-zjsAdcLnUsL6A

Real-Time Stats
Turns out the new middleware for the stats seem to work pretty well. You can see the real-time stats during the stresstest on
http://stats.bitshares.eu  (make sure to select the testnet!)
After the stresstest, when the transactions are all in the blokchain, we can do some offline analysis

Spamming
Currently, the cli-wallet is the fastest to produce transactions
Python Script For the CLI wallet
Code: [Select]
import time
import json
from grapheneapi.grapheneapi import GrapheneAPI

blockinterval    = 2
numbertxperblock = 500

if __name__ == '__main__':
    client = GrapheneAPI("localhost", 8090, "", "")
    while True :
        for i in range(0,numbertxperblock) :
            print(i)
            res = client.transfer("faucet","xeroc","0.001", "TEST", "", True);
        time.sleep(blockinterval)

I hope I can finish up the basic uptick client and add a temporary flooding call there by next week, then you won't need the cli-wallet for it.

Public Witness API
Now that I have set a date, I can order a fat machine for the public API node and monitor it's RAM and bandwidth usage.
The URL will still be

  wss://node.testnet.bitshares.eu

and unless you run your own witness node (which would be very welcome), this node should hopefully have enough resources to stay up and running during the stresstest.

Is there anything else we should discuss in the meantime?
