Node Provider Reward Configuration Guide

After onboarding all your nodes, you must submit a reward configuration proposal in order to start receiving node rewards. If you do not do this, you will not receive node rewards.

In the next code block:

• Replace the NEURON_ID value with your neuron ID from the NNS Frontend Dapp (step 4.6 from the Node Provider Onboarding).
• Replace the NODE_OPERATOR_PRINCIPAL value with your node operator principal (step 8.1 from the Node Provider Onboarding).
• Replace NODE_1_MACHINE_ID, NODE_2_MACHINE_ID ... NODE_N_MACHINE_ID with the node machine IDs for all N of your node machines (found on the dashboard)
• Replace NODE_COUNT with the number of nodes you are setting a reward configuration for.

1. Create the proposal

$ NEURON_ID = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
$ NODE_OPERATOR_PRINCIPAL = xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxx
$ ./ic-admin \
        --nns-url https://ic0.app \
        -s ~/.config/dfx/identity/node-provider-hotkey/identity.pem \
    propose-to-update-node-operator-config \
        --proposer $NEURON_ID \
        --summary "Set rewards for the following nodes:

        * NODE_1_MACHINE_ID
        * NODE_2_MACHINE_ID
        * ...
        * NODE_N_MACHINE_ID
        " \
        --node-operator-id $NODE_OPERATOR_PRINCIPAL \
        --rewardable-nodes '{"type3.1": NODE_COUNT}'

The default reward configuration for gen2 nodes is type3.1. If a different node configuration is applicable to your node models, replace this value.

Example reward configuration proposal for 3 gen2 nodes:

$ NEURON_ID = 13419667327548602649
$ NODE_OPERATOR_PRINCIPAL = uqquy-76uhn-2mys5-dh54e-85ntr-sr953-redif-zkte3-94ndi-st2i1-93t
$ ./ic-admin \
        --nns-url https://ic0.app \
        -s ~/.config/dfx/identity/node-provider-hotkey/identity.pem \
    propose-to-update-node-operator-config \
        --proposer $NEURON_ID \
        --summary "Set rewards for the following nodes:

        * sed94-atzdo-rltqy-tmnhr-fvspg-fat3p-sdbjp-7q3jg-dgfcq-zrlap-cqe

        " \
        --node-operator-id $NODE_OPERATOR_PRINCIPAL \
        --rewardable-nodes '{"type3.1": 3}'

2. Find the proposal on https://dashboard.internetcomputer.org/governance and wait until it's executed.

3. In order to expedite the speed of your proposal's approval, it is best to create a post in this forum thread to raise awareness of your proposal.
