Changing Validator Information
How to update your validator information
You can edit your validator’s information using the CLI with the following command:
Mainnet
Testnet
./hmy --node="https://api.s0.t.hmny.io" staking edit-validator \
--validator-addr [ONE ADDRESS] [FIELDS TO EDIT] --passphrase
./hmy --node="https://api.s0.b.hmny.io" staking edit-validator \
--validator-addr [ONE ADDRESS] [FIELDS TO EDIT] --passphrase
The CLI will prompt you to enter your BLS key file password. Only the
--validator-addr field is required; all other fields are optional.--validator-addris the validator ONE address that you want to edit (string)--activeto set validator as eligible or not to be elected (bool)--nameto change the name displayed on the Staking Explorer (string)--identityto change the identity field (string)--websiteto change the website field (string)--detailsto change the details field (string)--security-contactto change the security contact field (string)--rateto change the current commission rate (float)--min-self-delegationto change the minimum stake by the validator (float)--max-total-delegationto change the maximum stake that the validator can take (float)--remove-bls-keyto remove a BLS public key associated with your validator (string)--add-bls-keyto add another BLS public key to your validator (string)
When you add or remove keys from your validator (using
--add-bls-key or --remove-bls-key) make sure to restart the harmony service so it accounts for the BLS keys you are using.--validator-addris the only field that is required.Sending the command without the arguments will leave those fields of your validator as is.
--max-rate and --max-change-rate cannot be changed after creation.--min-self-delegation must be at least 10,000 ONE.Last modified 2yr ago
