    create service file and start node

    Create service file Create a ojod.service file in the /etc/systemd/system folder with the following code. You can change USER with your Linux user name. You need sudo previlege to do this step.

    ssudo tee /etc/systemd/system/soarchaind.service > /dev/null << EOF
