Settings set

Value(s)	Value description
--node-name	The name of your provider
--cores	The number of threads allocated to the provider service
--memory	The amount of RAM (in bytes) allocated to the provider service (note: prefixes such as GiB are OK)
--disk	The amount of HDD/SDD (in bytes) allocated to the provider service (note: prefixes such as GiB are OK)
--starting-fee	A decimal number of how much GLM you want to start a task/service
--env-per-hour	A decimal number of how much GLM you want for misc. activities such as downloading a Golem image or finalizing a task
--cpu-per-hour	A decimal number of how much GLM you want for every one allocated thread while working (note: this value is multiplied automatically afterwards, 256-thread CPU's can reasonably have the same value as 2-thread CPUs)
--account	Yagna account (Ethereum address) for payments
--payment-network	The network where you want to be paid in, e.g., mainnet or testnet

To change a particular setting (for eg. price settings) type:

golemsp settings set --cpu-per-hour 3

You can also combine multiple settings in one command as follows:

golemsp settings set --cpu-per-hour 3 --cores 7 which will change your GLM per hour to "3" and adjust the numbers of shared CPU cores to "7".

To change the default Ethereum address that was created for you during the initial setup process type:

golemsp settings set --account <address>

and restart your node afterward for it to update. To check if your address has been updated properly, run

golemsp status

Settings show

golemsp settings show - Show current settings.

Running Golem on testnet

To run the Golem provider on the test network, type the following command into the terminal:

golemsp run --payment-network testnet
