Terminal Commands

Below is a list of common commands used for ETH2 staking with Lighthouse.

Hint: You can execute multiple commands at once by using && to connect them, so a few commands listed below are a combination of several commands (e.g. Start All Services).

START ALL SERVICES

sudo systemctl start geth && sudo systemctl start lighthousebeacon && sudo systemctl start lighthousevalidator

STOP ALL SERVICES

sudo systemctl stop lighthousevalidator && sudo systemctl stop lighthousebeacon && sudo systemctl stop geth

VIEW JOURNAL ENTRIES

sudo journalctl -f -u geth.service
sudo journalctl -f -u lighthousebeacon.service
sudo journalctl -f -u lighthousevalidator.service

OPEN/EDIT SERVICE FILES WITH NANO

sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/geth.service
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/lighthousebeacon.service
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/lighthousevalidator.service
