1. Download and install the **Checker Client Linux CLI** from app.aethir.com 2. Install 1. `Download from app.aethir.com` 2. `Unzip` 3. `cd into the directory` 4. `sudo ./install.sh` 5. `sudo ./AethirCheckerCLI` Please note that this is a mandatory upgrade. Please also note that you cannot run 2 Linux CLI or Windows GUI at the same time, as that would lead to unexpected error. 3. Create **wallet** ```jsx aethir wallet create ``` 2. Give the **public** **key** to the License Owner 3. Once Owner initiated the delegation process, check the list of **pending licenses** ```jsx aethir license list --pending ``` 4. Get the license IDs, and **approve**: ```jsx aethir license approve [License ID] ``` 5. If you’d like to **approve all** pending licenses, use: ```jsx aethir license approve --all ``` 6. Checker nodes are running automatically. If they are either in **Ready** or **Checking** status, you are good to go! You can **verify** by using: ```jsx aethir license list --ready ``` ``` aethir license list --checking ``` or ```jsx aethir license summary ``` 7. **Quit** application - the owner will stop earning rewards ### Commands ### 1.
