Run in the cloud

You can use Terraform to spin up an Amazon EC2 instance with the node. You will need an SSH keypair to access the EC2 instance. Generate a new keypair or use an existing one.

``
terraform init setup/cloud
terraform apply -var ssh_public_file="~/.ssh/parsec-testnet.pub" -var ssh_private_file="~/.ssh/parsec-testnet" -var network="testnet-beta" setup/cloud
`


Some useful commands once it is up and running:
- check the logs: ssh ubuntu@ journalctl -u parsec
- start/stop/restart/status: ssh ubuntu@ sudo service parsec start/stop/restart/status`
