Introduction📔

-----Storage Nodes: Unlike Validator Nodes that focus on securing the blockchain itself, Storage Nodes focus on managing and serving data. They are the backbone of the network's data storage capabilities, ensuring persistence and availability for long-term data storage (e.g., training datasets, large AI models). By running a storage node, you'll contribute to the decentralized storage of 0G data, making it accessible and resilient.

Device/System Requirements 💻

Pre-Requirements 🛠

• Add 0G-Galileo-Testnet chain from here: https://docs.0g.ai/run-a-node/testnet-information

• Take faucet: https://faucet.0g.ai/

Install All Require Dependecies

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y

sudo apt install curl iptables build-essential git wget lz4 jq make cmake gcc nano automake autoconf tmux htop nvme-cli libgbm1 pkg-config libssl-dev libleveldb-dev tar clang bsdmainutils ncdu unzip libleveldb-dev screen ufw -y

• Install rustup

curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

source $HOME/.cargo/env

Check version

rustc --version

• Install go

wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.24.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz && \
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go && \
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.24.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz && \
rm go1.24.3.linux-amd64.tar.gz && \
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin' >> ~/.bashrc && \
source ~/.bashrc

check version

go version

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/0glabs/0g-storage-node.git

cd 0g-storage-node && git checkout v1.0.0 && git submodule update --init

• Build in release mode

cargo build --release

Set Configrations

rm -rf $HOME/0g-storage-node/run/config.toml

curl -o $HOME/0g-storage-node/run/config.toml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Mayankgg01/0G-Storage-Node-Guide/main/config.toml

• Add Your Wallet's Private KEY in config.toml, ❗❗Dont Add 0X before the key:

-open and go to miner_key and add your pvt key:

nano $HOME/0g-storage-node/run/config.toml

If u want to change RPC then follow this:

1. get rpc from here - https://www.astrostake.xyz/0g-status

2. Chooose any rpc and edit in the config.toml file

Create a Systemd Service File

sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/zgs.service > /dev/null <<EOF
[Unit]
Description=ZGS Node
After=network.target

[Service]
User=$USER
WorkingDirectory=$HOME/0g-storage-node/run
ExecStart=$HOME/0g-storage-node/target/release/zgs_node --config $HOME/0g-storage-node/run/config.toml
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=10
LimitNOFILE=65535

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF

• Reload

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

• Enable

sudo systemctl enable zgs

• Start service

sudo systemctl start zgs

Managing Logs

sudo systemctl status zgs

• check Full Logs

tail -f ~/0g-storage-node/run/log/zgs.log.$(TZ=UTC date +%Y-%m-%d)

• Check block & Sync process - Match to the latest block on explorer

 while true; do     response=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:5678 -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"zgs_getStatus","params":[],"id":1}');     logSyncHeight=$(echo $response | jq '.result.logSyncHeight');     connectedPeers=$(echo $response | jq '.result.connectedPeers');     echo -e "logSyncHeight: \033[32m$logSyncHeight\033[0m, connectedPeers: \033[34m$connectedPeers\033[0m";     sleep 5; done

Stop & Delete the service

sudo systemctl stop zgs

sudo systemctl disable zgs
sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/zgs.service
rm -rf $HOME/0g-storage-node

Explorer & Useful Webs

• Explorer- (View your txs - Paste Your Address): https://chainscan-galileo.bangcode.id/ OR https://chainscan-galileo.0g.ai/

• View Miner Details- (Add your wallet address at the end of the link): https://storagescan-galileo.0g.ai/miner/

DONE!!
