Checking A Node

1. Check Node Running Version

To check the node version that is running, run the command below:

./hmy utility metadata

2. Check if Node is Syncing

1. To check if your node is syncing properly, run the command below and check that the block height of the shard(s).

./hmy blockchain latest-headers

2. Before continuing, check if your node is fully synced using an external endpoint. Replace parameter --node with the enpoint you want to compare with. Check the examples below for shard 0 on mainnet and testnet. Just change the edpoints to do the comparison with other shards.

./hmy --node="https://api.s0.t.hmny.io" blockchain latest-headers

3. Verify if blocks shown on steps 1 and 2 are closer or equal to each other. If so, your node should have caught up!
