Adding a New Machine

If you need to add a new machine to your Prover Node setup, the process depends on whether the new machine has the same hardware specifications as your current one.

Same Hardware Specifications

If the new machine has identical hardware specs to your existing one, you only need to generate a new machine secret:


prover-node gen-machine-secret

This generates a new Machine Secret Key and updates the configuration file accordingly. You can then proceed directly to Registration and Starting a Node.

Make sure you have already imported your ECDSA private key on the new machine before running this command. See Machine Secret for details.

Different Hardware Specifications

If the new machine has different hardware specifications (e.g., different GPU model, RAM, CPU, or storage), you will need a new configuration file that reflects the updated resources.

Please reach out through our support channels with your new machine’s hardware details to receive an updated configuration file.

Once you receive the new configuration, you can run the onboarding step of the install script to set up the new machine.
