The Omnibus framework used to build our Akash Validator will store the following info in a S3 bucket for re-use when a deployment is restarted. All data stored will be encrypted.
- Validator's Private Key
- Node IDs - more detail on the use of these IDs later in this guide
We recommend the use of FileBase S3 buckets for this purpose. If you do not have a FileBase account, create a free account for this use.
Create the following buckets within FileBase for upcoming use in the Validator build.
- akashnode1
- akashnode2
- akashvalidator
Visit the FileBase `Access Keys` menu option and capture the KEY
and SECRET
for use in subsequent steps.
