Hello, @SvenF
we are going to add 10 new nodes in KR2. The newly added DC needs to create a new node_operator_id. However, due to my mistake, I did not create a new one and entered the node_operator_id used by the old HK4 DC. What should I do now? Now that I have created a new node_operator_id, do I need to resubmit the proposal to add nodes within the KR2 DC? Or can this wrong node addition be modified? Proposal: 126363 - ICP Dashboard
I just re-submitted a Proposal 126384 https://dashboard.internetcomputer.org/proposal/126384 to be a node provider for IC.
I kindly request the community to please support and vote to adopt my proposal.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.
Dear all,
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to seek your assistance regarding a crucial issue I am currently facing.
Due to a recent browser update of Chrome, Internet Identity ‘passkeys’ were inadvertently cleared, and unfortunately, I did not make a backup. This has left me unable to access the NNS system at https://nns.ic0.app/
As part of our operations, we have nodes in Hong Kong (hktt4, 7nodes from origingames), and we are in the process of applying for nodes in South Korea (estimated in 10 nodes machines). However, the inability to access the NNS system is causing significant disruption. I am reaching out to inquire if there is a solution or any assistance you can provide to help me regain access.
I can provide proof of ownership through various means, including the Internet Identity associated with the account, the hardware wallet used for interactions with NNS, the node_operator_private_key.pem file, and evidence of ownership for the nodes currently operational online.
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and any guidance or support you can provide to help me resolve this issue swiftly.
Hi @Olivia-xiami. With the introduction of the optimization tooling you have to include a validation of candidate nodes (Validation of Candidate Node Machines - Internet Computer Wiki) to your node operator proposal. Could you please check with the tooling whether adding 5 nodes in HK will support decentralization, and if so resubmit your proposal?
HI @Webgame unfortunately a proposal cannot be updated once submitted and when you use the node operator id from the HK data center the proposal will fail to execute even if approved. So you have to resubmit your proposal. You should also add the information from the candidate node validation process in your node operator proposal (in your case that you ordered the machines before 1st Dec). Let me know if any questions.
Hi @origingame sorry to hear the issue. Can you post your message on the Matrix/Element channel (Node Provider Matrix channel - Internet Computer Wiki)? That is the best place for discussion technical issues and trouble shooting and includes both dfinity team and community members with technical background.
Thank you for your prompt response and suggestion. We have already posted our letter on the Matrix/Element channel (Node Provider Matrix channel - Internet Computer Wiki) as per your recommendation. We appreciate your assistance and look forward to any guidance or support the community or the ICP Team can provide to help resolve this issue swiftly.
Thank you very much for your reply, I have resubmitted a new proposal to add a node and used the new node_operator_id. Proposal: 126386 - ICP Dashboard
@SvenF
Hello, I calculated the model of kr2 data center with 10 nodes.
But I don’t understand at all what these X’s and picture squares mean. Is there any place that can explain it? Or can you see from this that kr2 can also add 10 nodes?
Hi @Webgame the model is explained in more detail on the forum (see the links in the first paragraph of the wiki page: Validation of Candidate Node Machines - Internet Computer Wiki). The X’s represent the required node configuration (target topology), the colored boxes are the existing node machines for every node provider.
The graph with Node Allocation Per Subnet per Country best shows what is required to reach the target topology: the blue boxes are node machines that already exist, the red boxed shows where new Gen2 node machines still are required. It shows that 4 subnets still require Gen2 node machines. And with a node provider limit of 1 this means a new node provider currently can only add a maximum of 4 node machines (if there are not already a lot of node machines of the same country in the subnet).
Suggest to go through the forum post and have a look at the outcome of the model. It looks like that a maximum of 4 node machines still can be added, but be aware that other node providers are submitting proposals as well.
Thank you once again for your valuable advice. We have promptly posted our issue on Matrix/Element and received some alternative solutions that might be applicable for recovering the identity.
In line with the guidance provided in ‘Changing the Node Provider Principal,’ we plan to expeditiously submit a proposal for switching OriginGame’s identity, as recommended by Sasa Tomic. Additionally, we will create a post on the forum, linked to the proposal, allowing our community members to pose questions regarding this incident. This approach aims to foster transparency, build trust, and garner support for the proposed changes.
I would like to formally register as Node Provider. I plan to onboard a limited number of new nodes in countries where there are currently no IC nodes present, in line with the IC decentralisation topology. I look forward to contributing to the further decentralisation of the IC node network and to support the future growth of the IC.
If you have any inquiries, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Your support and votes to adopt this proposal would be greatly appreciated: Proposal: 126403 - ICP Dashboard.
Hello, @SvenF
We had purchased an order for 10 servers in November before the decentralized node proposal was implemented. What should we do in this situation?
but since it’s not, unfortunately, you have to submit the new proposal with node validation proof that it helps decentralization. If the servers are yet to arrive, I’m guessing you can add nodes over time when the decentralization script approves it. There was a topic on the wiki on when to order servers, it usually is after the node allocation proposal is accepted.
I know it won’t solve your problem but hope this info will help you decide how to tackle it
OK, I got it, thank you very much for your answer.
Currently, only 4 servers can be added first. Decentralized computing only allows 4 servers to be added.
