Description

re: #22

Commands below require pigz to be installed. If its not then remove --use-compress-program=pigz from the tar commands and add z argument.

Generate dump

BU node must be stopped

sudo tar --exclude=debug.log --exclude=mempool.dat --exclude=wallet.dat --exclude=.lock --exclude=peers.dat --exclude=orphanpool.dat --use-compress-program=pigz -cvf /tmp/bu.tar.gz -C data/bitcoind testnet3

Restore dump

Put the files in the directory before creating the container

mkdir -p data/bitcoind/testnet3
tar --use-compress-program=pigz -xvf  /tmp/bu.tar.gz -C data/bitcoind/
