Rapid Node Initialization(Testnet)

🧰 Initialization Using Snapshots

Follow these steps to bootstrap a Pharos node using the latest snapshot:

✅ Step1: Download the Snapshot Dataset

We periodically publish new snapshots. Use the following command to download and extract:

wget https://snapshot.dplabs-internal.com/atlantic/atlantic-snapshot-2026-03-05-11.tar.gz
tar -zxvf atlantic-snapshot-2026-03-05-11.tar.gz

Only use snapshots that match your target network.

🧯 Step2: Stop the Container

docker-compose down

🧹 Step3: Remove Local Data

rm -rf /data/$WORKSPACE/pharos-node/domain/light/data/public
mv /data/$WORKSPACE/pharos-node/domain/light/data/local_storage /data/$WORKSPACE/pharos-node/domain/light/data/local_storage.bak

📦 Step4: Replace with the Latest Snapshot

mv public /data/$WORKSPACE/pharos-node/domain/light/data/public

🚀 Step5: Start the Container

docker-compose up -d
