How to Provide Aethir Earth (AI)

To participate in Aethir Cloud, Cloud Hosts must onboard their GPU servers by registering them to the platform and staking ATH tokens.

Register Servers

Before you begin, make sure your servers meet all Operation Requirements, including the Approved GPU Server Locations and Server Specifications Requirements. Contact Support if you need special considerations.

How to Register

1. Go to Aethir Earth > Servers.

2. Click Add New Server.

3. Copy the Setup Script provided (linked to your Host account).

4. Replace the placeholder name "Aethir" at the end of the script with a custom name - preferably the server's MAC address (use hyphens for readability).

5. Run the script on the target server(s).

6. Return to the portal and click Refresh to see the imported servers.

Stake Servers

Once your servers pass verification, their status changes to Waiting for Staking.

Make sure the hardware is final—any changes will require re-onboarding and re-staking.

How to Stake

How to Unstake

1. Go to Aethir Earth > Servers.

2. Click Unstake next to the server you want to deactivate.

3. Review the details and click Approve.

4. Sign the transaction in your crypto wallet.

Manage Servers

After your servers are onboarded, you can monitor and manage them through the Servers page. This includes tracking their status, performance, and configuration.

Server Status

Each server displays a status reflecting its onboarding stage and health:

Confirming Specification	Setup script executed. Awaiting user confirmation of IP, port, and server specs.
Checking	Server details confirmed. Platform is verifying accessibility and configuration.
Waiting for Staking	Server passed verification. Awaiting user staking.
In Service	Server successfully onboarded. No further action needed.
Offline	Server is currently unreachable.

Why Are My Servers Offline?

1. Check if the network is accessible with the correct IP addresses. Reboot the server if needed.

2. Make sure the bm-agent downloaded during onboarding is running. Do not remove the bm-agent.

3. If the issue persists, contact Support.

• You can edit the Server Name. If not updated, it defaults to the Server ID.

• IP address changes are allowed only if the server is not in an active rental. Contact Support to make changes.

Changing the MAC address (e.g., by adding or swapping the NIC) will generate a new Server ID, requiring re-onboarding and re-staking.

Modify or Maintain Servers

• Hardware modifications are not allowed after staking is completed.

• Any maintenance or modifications may lead to slashing penalties and may impact active rental orders for Cloud Customers.

• If special circumstances require maintenance, please contact Support for assistance.
