Important Notes

Monitoring, Updating, Uninstalling, and Troubleshooting.

Early access: You're on the Tashi Alphanet, a public testing phase. Real $TASHI is not involved, and all features are subject to change or reset.

Monitoring your Node

You can run docker ps or podman ps to see the current status of your node:

$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID   IMAGE          COMMAND                  CREATED         STATUS         PORTS                                                                       NAMES
e473e98c67b9   503a236bb1a1   "/bin/bash container…"   3 minutes ago   Up 3 minutes   127.0.0.1:9000->9000/tcp, 0.0.0.0:39065->39065/tcp, [::]:39065->39065/tcp   tashi-depin-worker

This command only lists running containers. If the container has exited for some reason, it won't appear in this output. Instead, run docker ps -a or podman ps -a to see all containers, including stopped containers.

Run docker logs tashi-depin-worker or podman logs tashi-depin-worker to see the logs from the worker:

You should see new activity here periodically.

If you have trouble with the worker, you may be asked to provide the output from this command.

Log messages mentioning disconnections are normal; the worker periodically re-connects to the DePIN backend to refresh its status. This is only an issue if the worker is repeatedly failing to connect.

Manual Update

If you opted-out of automatic updates when installing the worker, the worker will stop when an update is required.

Run one of the following commands in a terminal:

docker logs tashi-depin-worker

podman logs tashi-depin-worker

If the Privilege Check of the install script failed, you may need to prefix this command with sudo.

If you see the following message in the logs:

An update is available, but automatic updating is disabled. Manual update is required.

Then you need to update the worker.

The same script used to install the worker can also update it (make note of the --update flag):

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tashigg/tashi-depin-worker/refs/heads/main/install.sh)" - --update

This performs the same checks as installation, but skips the 2. Install Script (Docker) step as it simply re-uses the existing authorization.

At the end of the update process, the script prompts if you want to delete the old worker container:

Would you like to delete tashi-depin-worker-old? (Y/n)

Unless you've been instructed to otherwise by a Tashi representative, press Enter to delete the old container.

Uninstalling

Uninstalling the worker is as simple as deleting the container.

Run one of the following commands in a terminal:

docker rm -f tashi-depin-worker

podman rm -f tashi-depin-worker

If the Privilege Check of the install script failed, you may need to prefix this command with sudo.

Deleting Node Authorization

The worker node authorization is retained as a persistent volume.

This means that, if you install the worker again later, you won't need to repeat the steps in 3. Bond Worker.

However, this also means you won't be able to bond the worker to a different wallet address.

If you have already uninstalled the worker, you can also delete the volume containing the authorization. This will let you re-do the steps in 3. Bond Worker after reinstalling the worker node.

Run one of the following commands in a terminal:

docker volume rm tashi-depin-worker-auth

podman volume rm tashi-depin-worker-auth

If the Privilege Check of the install script failed, you may need to prefix this command with sudo.

If you get an error about the volume being in-use, this means you need to uninstall the worker first.

If you have already uninstalled the worker, you may have an old container that stuck around from a manual upgrade of the worker. Try one of the following commands:

docker rm -f tashi-depin-worker-old

podman rm -f tashi-depin-worker-old

If the Privilege Check of the install script failed, you may need to prefix this command with sudo.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter a problem not covered here, please contact your Tashi representative for support.

The container name "/tashi-depin-worker" is already in use

The worker is already installed. Proceed to the 3. Bond Worker step or see Uninstalling for how to uninstall the existing worker.
