Remove Expired Validator Registration
Learn how to identify and remove expired validator registrations that were not completed within the 24-hour window.
Understanding Expired Validator Registrations
When validators are registered through the Validator Manager contract, they are given a 24-hour window to complete their registration on the P-Chain. If this window expires without completion, the registration becomes invalid but remains in the pending registrations list.
Expired validator registrations typically occur due to configuration errors or manual mistakes during the registration process that prevent proper P-Chain registration.
These registrations create contract clutter by remaining in the pending list indefinitely, making it difficult to identify valid pending registrations.
Removing Expired Registrations
This tool automatically identifies registrations past their expiry time and removes them from the pending list to keep your validator management system organized.
When removing an expired registration, the tool builds the required justification for P-Chain removal, signs the removal message using the appropriate signing mechanism, executes the completeValidatorRemoval function, and updates the contract state to remove the expired registration from the pending list.
