# Flush All Validator Mempools - Instructions
**Date**: $(date)
**Status**: ⚠️ **ACTION REQUIRED ON PROXMOX HOST**
---
## 🎯 Objective
Flush mempools on all Besu validator nodes (and RPC nodes) to clear stuck transactions blocking Ethereum Mainnet configuration.
---
## 📋 Validator Nodes
| VMID | IP Address | Service Name |
|------|------------|--------------|
| 1000 | 192.168.11.100 | besu-validator.service |
| 1001 | 192.168.11.101 | besu-validator.service |
| 1002 | 192.168.11.102 | besu-validator.service |
| 1003 | 192.168.11.103 | besu-validator.service |
| 1004 | 192.168.11.104 | besu-validator.service |
## 📋 RPC Nodes (Also Need Flushing)
| VMID | IP Address | Service Name |
|------|------------|--------------|
| 2500 | 192.168.11.250 | besu-rpc.service |
| 2501 | 192.168.11.251 | besu-rpc.service |
| 2502 | 192.168.11.252 | besu-rpc.service |
---
## 🔧 Method 1: Automated Script (Recommended)
**On the Proxmox host**, run:
```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox
chmod +x scripts/flush-all-mempools-proxmox.sh
./scripts/flush-all-mempools-proxmox.sh
```
This script will:
1. Restart all validator services (1000-1004)
2. Restart all sentry services (1500-1503)
3. Restart all RPC services (2500-2502)
4. Verify services are running
5. Report summary
---
## 🔧 Method 2: Manual Restart (If Script Fails)
**On the Proxmox host**, run these commands:
### Validators
```bash
for vmid in 1000 1001 1002 1003 1004; do
echo "Restarting VMID $vmid..."
pct exec $vmid -- systemctl restart besu-validator.service
sleep 2
done
```
### RPC Nodes
```bash
for vmid in 2500 2501 2502; do
echo "Restarting VMID $vmid..."
pct exec $vmid -- systemctl restart besu-rpc.service
sleep 2
done
```
### Verify Services
```bash
for vmid in 1000 1001 1002 1003 1004 2500 2501 2502; do
if pct exec $vmid -- pgrep -f "besu" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
echo "✓ VMID $vmid: Besu running"
else
echo "✗ VMID $vmid: Besu not running"
fi
done
```
---
## 🔧 Method 3: SSH to Each Node (If pct Not Available)
**From a machine with SSH access**, run:
```bash
# Validators
for ip in 192.168.11.100 192.168.11.101 192.168.11.102 192.168.11.103 192.168.11.104; do
echo "Restarting $ip..."
ssh root@$ip "systemctl restart besu-validator.service"
sleep 2
done
# RPC Nodes
for ip in 192.168.11.250 192.168.11.251 192.168.11.252; do
echo "Restarting $ip..."
ssh root@$ip "systemctl restart besu-rpc.service"
sleep 2
done
```
---
## ⏱️ Wait for Services to Stabilize
After restarting, wait 15-30 seconds for services to come back online:
```bash
# Wait and verify RPC is online
for i in {1..15}; do
if cast block-number --rpc-url http://192.168.11.250:8545 >/dev/null 2>&1; then
echo "✅ RPC is online!"
break
else
echo " Attempt $i/15: Waiting..."
sleep 2
fi
done
```
---
## ✅ Verify Mempools Are Flushed
After restarting, verify the mempool issue is resolved:
```bash
cd /home/intlc/projects/proxmox
./scripts/configure-ethereum-mainnet-final.sh
```
**Expected Result**: Transactions should succeed without "Replacement transaction underpriced" errors.
---
## 📊 Current Status
- **Issue**: Stuck transaction in mempool with extremely high gas price
- **Blocking**: Ethereum Mainnet configuration
- **Solution**: Restart Besu services to flush mempools
- **Status**: ⏳ **AWAITING MANUAL RESTART ON PROXMOX HOST**
---
## 🎯 Next Steps After Flushing
1. **Wait for services to stabilize** (15-30 seconds)
2. **Verify RPC is online**: `cast block-number --rpc-url http://192.168.11.250:8545`
3. **Configure Ethereum Mainnet**: `./scripts/configure-ethereum-mainnet-final.sh`
4. **Verify configuration**: `./scripts/test-bridge-all-7-networks.sh weth9`
5. **Expected**: 7/7 networks configured ✅

## 📝 Scripts Created
1. `scripts/flush-all-mempools-proxmox.sh` - Automated script for Proxmox host
2. `scripts/flush-validator-mempools.sh` - Validator-specific script
3. `scripts/configure-ethereum-mainnet-final.sh` - Configuration script (ready to run after flush)

**Last Updated**: $(date)
**Action Required**: Run flush script on Proxmox host, then configure Ethereum Mainnet
