Archival node Snapshot

[Palak3196]

Hi Team,

I want to run the avax-go archival mainnet node (having data from genesis), which I believe would have a few TBs of data already.
Is there a snapshot available for download that can give me a headstart on the bootstrapping process? Because syncing and bootstrapping a few TBs of data even with a premium SSD could take months.

Appreciate any help/comments you can provide, thanks!

This issue has become stale because it has been open 60 days with no activity. Adding the lifecycle/frozen label will cause this issue to ignore lifecycle events.

You'll likely have to just bootstrap. Providing a trusted db snapshot would be strange as a decentralized network. If you don't need all historical blocks, you can run with state sync enabled to get a faster sync time.

@Palak3196: publicnode .com offers a pruned and archived snapshot for both mainnet and testnet node. ATM, mainnet archival snapshot weighs 7.5TB.
