How to enable Offline Mode on an edge node

Introduction

 

This article is deprecated and will soon be deleted. The timer.use.config.checkpoint variable is no longer in use, but the behavior is we always do offline mode. Nothing needs to be set. Nothing to enable.

This guide will help you disable network connectivity on one of your edge nodes. Note that offline mode is not the same as deactivating your node. Even while your node is offline, your edge applications can still run on it if they don't require connectivity.

Note: Offline Mode is also distinct from Airplane Mode.

Prerequisites

Ensure that the ZCLI container is running.

Procedure

To enable offline mode on an edge node, execute the following zcli commands. Replace <EDGE_NODE> with the name of your edge node.

Disable network fallback:

zcli edge-node update <EDGE_NODE> --config=network.fallback.any.eth:disabled

Set reboot timer:

zcli edge-node update <EDGE_NODE> --config=timer.reboot.no.network:315360000

Set configuration checkpoint timer:

zcli edge-node update <EDGE_NODE> --config=timer.use.config.checkpoint:315360000
