Restore a Validator
A validator can be completely restored on a new Sei node with the following set of keys:
- The Consensus key, stored in
~/.sei/config/priv_validator.json - The mnemonic to the validator wallet
Before proceeding, ensure that the existing validator is not active. Double voting has severe slashing consequences.
To restore a validator:
- 1.Setup a full Sei node synced up to the latest block.
- 2.Replace the
~/.sei/config/priv_validator.jsonfile of the new node with the associated file from the old node, then restart your node.
