TRY AS SUPERNODE ON TESTNET

Install gttc

First you can follow Building GTTC to install gttc on server (make sure is release/v0.2.3)

Create your new account(address) by gttc

gttc --datadir node1/ account new

your key file will be found in node1/keystore, do not forget the password when you create this address

Supernode on Testnet

Use the follow command to start node as super node

gttc --datadir node1/ --testnet -unlock '217f8723d255f0ce25e1467f9cd35dd191ad029f' --password pass.txt --mine

replace 217f8723d255f0ce25e1467f9cd35dd191ad029f with the address you create in step 2, and make sure your password use in step 2 saved in pass.txt file

Now you will see the log like :

Means you sync block from our testnet one by one.

Means you already try to seal block as supernode, but do not have enough vote till now.
