Hi Collection & Consensus node operators,
After the last spork, machine accounts are now in active use on Mainnet, and Collection/Consensus nodes will be submitting transactions using these accounts every epoch going forward.
Please be sure to monitor the account balance of your nodes’ machine accounts going forward to ensure they always have sufficient funds to submit these transactions.
Resources:
- General Machine Account Documentation https://docs.onflow.org/staking/machine-account
- You can check machine account config validity, including account balance, at any time using boot-tools https://docs.onflow.org/node-operation/machine-existing-operator/#verify-machine-account-setup
As a reminder, recommended minimum and top-up accounts balances are below (eg. When the balance reaches “minimum”, fill up to “recommended”):
Collection:
- Minimum: 0.002FLOW
- Recommended: 0.005FLOW
Consensus
- Minimum: 0.1FLOW
- Recommended: 0.25FLOW
Please let us know if there are any questions.
thank you,
Flow Team
