- Move central configuration from /opt/aitbc/.env to /etc/aitbc/blockchain.env
- Follow system standards for configuration file placement
- Update all workflow steps to use new config location
- Update systemd services to use /etc/aitbc/blockchain.env
- Update environment management section with new paths
- Maintain backup strategy with .backup files
- Standardize configuration location across all AITBC services
This aligns with Linux filesystem hierarchy standards where
/etc/ is the proper location for system configuration files.
- Add verification step before creating directories
- Check if /var/lib/aitbc/ structure already exists
- Provide feedback if directories need to be created
- Apply to both aitbc1 (localhost) and aitbc (remote) setup sections
- More robust directory handling for existing installations
- Remove SSH command for aitbc1 since running on localhost
- Update workflow to reflect aitbc1 is local, aitbc is remote
- Clarify genesis sync approach (aitbc syncs from blockchain, not copy)
- Update final verification section to show localhost vs remote commands
- Maintain proper separation between genesis authority (local) and follower (remote)
- Merge blockchain-node/.env.production into central /opt/aitbc/.env
- Update all blockchain paths to use standardized /var/lib/aitbc/ structure
- Remove separate .env.production file (merged into central config)
- Update systemd services to remove references to .env.production
- Standardize Coordinator API paths and RPC port (8006)
- Add trusted_proposers setting for follower nodes
- Update multi-node workflow to reflect merged configuration
- Use aitbc1genesis as default proposer in central .env
- All services now use single central .env file with standardized paths
This eliminates configuration file duplication and ensures consistent
directory structure across all AITBC services.
- Replace separate blockchain.env files with adaptations of central /opt/aitbc/.env
- Add environment configuration section explaining the centralized approach
- Update both aitbc1 (genesis) and aitbc (follower) setup to use central .env
- Add backup strategy for .env files before modification
- Remove genesis copying from aitbc1 to aitbc (follower should sync via blockchain)
- Add comprehensive environment management section with troubleshooting
- Maintain standardized directory structure while using single .env file
- Include commands for viewing and restoring .env configurations
- Comprehensive workflow for setting up two-node AITBC blockchain
- aitbc1 as genesis authority, aitbc as follower node
- Includes wallet creation, genesis setup, and cross-node transactions
- Uses standardized directory structure with /var/lib/aitbc and /etc/aitbc
- Step-by-step commands for Redis gossip sync and RPC configuration
