Give away 300XYM for a helper! How to disconnect specific harvest delegators from my node?

Tech Support
#1

Hello,

Does anyone know how to disconnect specific harvest delegators from node side?

I’m running a Symbol node without 25% node share and asking delegators to send monthly fee. However certain amount of them seem ignore that even after sending a message to their accounts. I’d like to consider disconnecting them from my node and open that slots for new delegators. I think this is better solution for symbol community than expanding my node availability for more delegators.

I’ll pay 300XYM for a person who can analyze a binary file ( harvesters.dat ) and guide me through how to disconnect specific harvesters from my node. I’m not a programmer, so need step by step guide to complete the task. Please DM me if you have an ability!

Best,

As far as I know there is no way to remove selected harvesters.

Probably there isn’t so much demand to disconnect delegators, people are rather interested in collecting many delegators :sweat_smile:

I asked devs and it should be technically possible (by playing with harvesters.dat) but there is no tooling around that currently.

Interesting. I would not have courage to start playing around with it, but I will have a look at the file. Let’s see…

It’s binary file so first we have to investigate how format looks like. I sugest playing on copy of course :slight_smile:

I’m not a programmer so it sounds already too complicated to me😂

Delegators can unbond (or withdraw) their tokens at any moment (subject to each protocol’s unbonding period), and they only pay a tiny portion of their earnings as a charge for the validator’s service. I hope this helps. Let me know if you find anything confusing, ‘kay?

Hi, I’m looking for that way to kick out specific harvesters from node side. I know harvesters can choose where to delegate, but from node side we cannot disconnect delegators easily.
