Multiple Masternodes setup GuideStep-by-step guide for starting multiple masternodes (3 masternodes in this example)
Requirements - crave
wallet running on your local computer
with at least 500 cravecoins for every masternode - white static IP with open ports for masternodes
STEP 1 : Prepairing masternodes 1 - Choose the place where you will hold you masternodes dirs (you need 1,5Gb free space for every masternode)
2 - Create folder "CraveMN1" there
3 - Copy file "crave-qt.exe" in folder "CraveMN1"
4 - Create in folder "CraveMN1" new folder "data"
5 - Copy file "blk0001.dat" and folder "txleveldb" in created folder "data"
6 - Rename "crave-qt.exe" to the "crave-mn1.exe"
7 - Press Win+R and type "cmd" and press Enter
8 - Now type there:
echo start crave-mn1.exe -datadir=./data > %homepath%/Desktop/startmn1.cmd
9 - Move file "startmn1.cmd" from Desktop to the "CraveMN1" folder
10 - Repeat the process from step 2 for each masternode you want to created, with changing mn1 to mn2, mn3
11 - Run startmn1.cmd, startmn2.cmd and startmn3.cmd, wait for complete loading wallets and complete syncing with blockchain
12 - Now you can exit from each running masternode wallets
STEP 2 : Prepairing controller wallet 1 - Open your main wallet where you have your coins
2 - Go to Recieve tab
3 - Press button "New address" and enter "Masternode 1" in Label (do not check "Stealth address")
4 - Send to this address exactly 500 CRAVE
5 - Wait for 1 confirmation of transaction and go to the Debug console
6 - Run command "masternode genkey" and write down generated key (this is your masternode private key)
7 - Run command "masternode outputs" and write down hexnumbers (this is your masternode tx) and digit after ":" (this is tx index)
8 - Go to Masternodes tab and switch to the "My Masternodes"
9 - Press button "Create"
10 - Enter "Alias" - "MN1" (do not use spaces and special charatcers)
11 - Enter "Address" - "YOUREXTERNALIP:PORT" (your external white ip and port for masternode)
12 - Enter "Privkey" - masternode private key you generated with "masternode genkey"
13 - Enter "TxHash" - masternode tx from "masternode outputs" command
14 - Enter "Output Index" - tx index from "masternode outputs" command
15 - Now you can press "Ok"
16 - Repeat process from step 2 for MN2 and MN3. With renaming MN1 to MN2 and MN3 and changing port
#################################################################################################################################################When you get to step 7 "masternode outputs" in second time you will see 2 lines with txhash and index. You must choose the new line with txhash.
When you get to step 7 "masternode outputs" in third time you will see 3 lines with txhash and index. You must choose the new line with txhash.
################################################################################################################################################# 17 - Press "Update" and you will see all three masternodes in list with status "Not in the masternode list."
#################################################################################################################################################Steps 8-15 creates masternode.conf. You can skip this steps and create it by yourself.
It have format:
ALIAS IP:PORT PRIVKEY TXHASH OUTPUTINDEX
One line - one masternode config
#################################################################################################################################################STEP 3 : Configuring masternodes 1 - Go to "CraveMN1/data" folder
2 - Open "crave.conf" in Notepad
3 - Type there:
port=PORT
masternode=1
masternodeaddr=IP:PORT
masternodeprivkey=PRIVKEY
4 - Replace PORT with port for your Masternode 1, IP:PORT with your external white ip and the same port for you Masternode 1
5 - Replace PRIVKEY with masternode private key you generated with "masternode genkey" in controller wallet for Masternode 1
6 - Save it and repeat process for Masternode 2 and Masternode 3.
STEP 4 : Starting masternodes 1 - Now you can start all your masternodes with "startmn1.cmd", "startmn2.cmd" and "startmn3.cmd"
2 - Go to controller wallet, check that your coins in Masternode 1, 2 and 3 addresses have at least 15 confirmations.
3 - Go to Masternodes tab and switch to the "My Masternodes"
4 - Press "Start All"
Thats all folks. You have created 3 working masternodes.
Don't be afraid to running PoS on controller wallet. It's do not damaged your masternode transactions because all masternode coins will be excluded from PoS.

How many active wallets now and coins? Is there a Russian community here?
