Is there any guide explaining how to run multiple wallets in same OS, or you folks use virtual machine for each MN address?
I have many on one windows machine, each wallet has its own copy of the blockchain though
Folder structure is like this:
C:\Users\Stonehedge\AppData\Roaming\DarkCoin\MN1\
C:\Users\Stonehedge\AppData\Roaming\DarkCoin\MN2\
C:\Users\Stonehedge\AppData\Roaming\DarkCoin\MN3\
C:\Users\Stonehedge\AppData\Roaming\DarkCoin\MN4\
C:\Users\Stonehedge\AppData\Roaming\DarkCoin\MN5\
C:\Users\Stonehedge\AppData\Roaming\DarkCoin\MN6\
...
Command line switch for MN10 would be as follows. When you first execute the command a new wallet is created in the subfolder and blockchain downloaded.
darkcoin-qt.exe -datadir=C:\Users\Stonehedge\AppData\Roaming\DarkCoin\MN10\
that's unnecessary.
I recommend:
create a data directory folder, name it something other than Darkcoin. for example, C:/hotdog/
create another folder to put the .exe in, for example C:/hamburger/ and rename darkcoin-qt.exe to something else. for example, hamburger.exe
for your masternode #1, create a .conf file in the C:/hamburger/ folder, for example taco1.conf
for your masternode #2, create taco2.conf
for your masternode #3, create taco3.conf
etc...
for your masternode #1, create a shortcut to hamburger.exe, and name the shortcut for example taco1. click Properties, and change the Start in: to C:/hamburger/ and change Target: to
C:/hamburger/hamburger.exe -datadir=C:/hotdog/ -wallet=taco1 -conf=C:/hamburger/taco1.conf
when you first open the taco1 shortcut, it will create a new wallet called taco1 in the C:/hotdog/ folder and use the taco1.conf from the C:/hamburger/ folder.
create a new shortcut for each additional masternode the same way.
once your masternodes are running, I recommend keeping all the wallet files somewhere safe until you need to access them. import all their private keys into a single wallet if you want to cash in your masternode payments all at once using coin control.
I'm creating an instructional video tutorial for all of this, plus how to set up masternodes and update them.
