⚠️ Blocked Tasks (Require Container Deployment)

These tasks cannot be completed until containers are deployed:

1. Configuration Copy - Requires containers to be running
2. Service Startup - Requires containers to exist
3. Deployment Verification - Requires containers to be running

📊 Statistics

• Keys Generated: 12 node keysets (5 validators + 4 sentries + 3 RPC)
• Key Files: 38 total files
• Total Size: 224K
• Verification: 100% success (0 errors, 0 warnings)
• Files Synced: All keys and configs synced to ml110

📁 Key Locations

Local

• Validators: /home/intlc/projects/smom-dbis-138/keys/validators/
• Sentries: /home/intlc/projects/smom-dbis-138/keys/sentries/
• RPC: /home/intlc/projects/smom-dbis-138/keys/rpc/

Remote (ml110)

• Validators: /opt/smom-dbis-138/keys/validators/
• Sentries: /opt/smom-dbis-138/keys/sentries/
• RPC: /opt/smom-dbis-138/keys/rpc/

🎯 What's Ready

Everything needed for deployment is ready:

• ✅ All keys generated and verified
• ✅ Configuration files prepared
• ✅ Deployment scripts ready
• ✅ Documentation complete
• ✅ Files synced to deployment host

🚧 Known Issue

The container deployment script (deploy-besu-nodes.sh) appears to hang during execution. This prevents automated container creation.

Options:

1. Investigate why deployment script hangs (may be waiting for user input or stuck on resource allocation)
2. Deploy containers manually using pct create commands
3. Deploy containers in smaller batches (validators first, then sentries, then RPC)

📋 Next Steps (After Container Deployment)

Once containers are deployed, follow DEPLOYMENT_CHECKLIST.md for the remaining steps:

1. Copy configuration files and keys
2. Update static-nodes.json
3. Start Besu services
4. Verify deployment

🎉 Achievement Summary

Successfully Completed:

• Complete key generation for all nodes
• Key validation and verification
• Configuration file preparation
• File synchronization
• Script and documentation creation

All key generation and preparation tasks are 100% complete!

The only remaining tasks require containers to be deployed first, which is a separate infrastructure operation.
