Tips and Troubleshooting
- Many times new allocations are created and allocation error is still shown.Try to use
./zbox listallocations
to cross-check whether an allocation is created - Check your wallet balance using
./zwallet getbalance
before creating an allocation and see whether you have the required amount of tokens to lock for allocation. If not having tokens use the faucet./zwallet faucet --methodName pour --input "{Pay day}"
command.
Write tokens are required and locked into a write pool using a
--lock
flag whenever the new allocation is created. There can be an instance where you are not able to create allocation since locked write tokens have expired with the allocation.To get the write pool information(expiry, how many locked tokens) for all allocations.
Command:
./zbox wp-info

For a Particular allocation write pool information use:
./zbox wp-info --allocation $ALLOCATION_ID
If there are no write tokens locked in a pool with an allocation. You can lock them using
./zbox wp-lock --allocation ALLOCATION_ID --duration 40m --tokens 1
All the tokens will be divided between allocation blobbers depending on their write price.
To unlock an expired write pool, associated with an allocation use
./zbox wp-unlock --pool_id POOL_ID
If unable to create new allocations as shown below:
Command:
zbox newallocation --lock 0.5
Response:
Error creating allocation: transaction_not_found: Transaction was not found on any of the sharders
To fix this issue, You must lock some tokens on the blobber. Through zbox, it can be done using the
sp-lock
commandYou have to get the blobber id which can be found using
./zbox ls-blobbers
command. The response will output all active blobbers but here in the sample response we have mentioned one of the blobbersResponse:
- id: 011a5444c9fe53137da7c3d871f3bf4bbf3c01607b14aa95ff2de43b5537d4b6

Now lets use the
sp-lock
command with above blobber_id to lock tokens.Command:
./zbox sp-lock --blobber_id --tokens 0.5 011a5444c9fe53137da7c3d871f3bf4bbf3c01607b14aa95ff2de43b5537d4b6

You can also use
sp-info
command for finding the stake pool info(total stake, capacity and write price) for a blobber../zbox sp-info --blobber_id 011a5444c9fe53137da7c3d871f3bf4bbf3c01607b14aa95ff2de43b5537d4b6

To Unlock tokens from stake pool again you can use the
sp-unlock
command../zbox sp-unlock --blobber_id 011a5444c9fe53137da7c3d871f3bf4bbf3c01607b14aa95ff2de43b5537d4b6 --pool_id b1e5f86af8b39d6486f69c03a078b3b6ae3129557a0fbc18cbb73967cbf6c206
Every allocation created using
./zbox newallocation
command has an expire time .By default it is (720h0m0s) but you can specify a particular duration using an --expire
flag as well. To know the expiration of the allocation use ./zbox listallocations
Sample Response:
ID | SIZE | EXPIRATION | DATASHARDS | PARITYSHARDS | FINALIZED | CANCELED |
R PRICE | W PRICE
+------------------------------------------------------------------+------------+---------------------------

If your allocation has expired you can finalize an expired allocation to get the unused tokens back. The command for finalizing the allocation is :
./zbox alloc-fini --allocation $ALLOC
Read Tokens are required and has to be locked in a read pool to perform Zbox operations on dStorage.
If unable to download files from dstorage as shown below
Command:
./zbox download --localpath ~/downloads/ --remotepath /myfiles/info.txt --allocation $ALLOC
Response:
Error in file operation: File content didn't match with uploaded file
You must check whether you have read tokens created. Through zbox, it can be done using the
rp-info
and rp-create
command.If running
./zbox rp-info
shows a below response:no tokens locked
You have to lock some tokens using
rp-lock
and command .Flags for the command can be viewed using `./zbox rp-lock --help
Flags:
--allocation string allocation id to lock for, required
--blobber string blobber id to lock for, optional
--duration duration lock duration, required
--fee float transaction fee, default 0
-h, --help help for rp-lock
--tokens float lock tokens number, required
Sample Command:
./zbox rp-lock --allocation $ALLOC --duration 2h --tokens 0.2
Try executing Zbox operations again after locking read pools.
There can be many instances where you are not able to perform Zbox operations on dStorage due to expired read pool for the allocation. Allocations are associated with a read pool which is locked using
./zbox rp-lock
command for a certain duration as shown above. To check the read pool details for a particular allocation , the command is./zbox rp-info --allocation $ALLOC

Here you will be able to see the pool_id,allocations ,expiry date,locked tokens and blobbers associated with the pool.
To Unlock tokens from the expired read pool mark the pool id to the variable using:
export poolid=b5806cb3a47c31f3f5f48329a5ded54fe1eba2b24b19bfca2909bb80ad2a3bb7
then use the
rp-unlock
command../zbox rp-unlock --pool_id poolid
./zbox rp-info
Failed to get read pool info: error requesting read pool info: consensus_failed: consensus failed on sharders
This can happen if read pool is not yet created for wallet. Read pool is usually created when new wallet is created by
zbox
or zwallet
. However, if wallet is created through zwallet recoverwallet
, read pool may not have been created. Simply run zbox rp-create.
