Operating rippled Servers

The core server of the XRP Ledger peer-to-peer network is rippled. Anyone can run their own rippled server that follows the network and keeps a complete copy of the XRP Ledger. You can even have your server take part in the consensus process.

This page contains instructions for:

Additional Configuration

rippled should connect to the XRP Ledger with the default configuration. However, you can change your settings by editing the rippled.cfg file (located at /opt/ripple/etc/rippled.cfg when installing rippled with yum). For recommendations about configuration settings, see Capacity Planning.

See the rippled GitHub repository for a description of all configuration options.

Changes to the [debug_logfile] or [database_path] sections may require you to give the rippled user and group ownership to your new configured path:

    $ chown -R rippled:rippled <configured path>

Restart rippled for any configuration changes to take effect:

    $ sudo service rippled restart
