Find the kesPeriod by dividing the slot tip number by the slotsPerKESPeriod.

I did this manually and got a whole number with a long decimal point. I ran the command and it was a whole number.

kesPeriod=(({slotNo} / ${slotsPerKESPeriod}))

echo kesPeriod: ${kesPeriod}

startKesPeriod=${kesPeriod}

echo startKesPeriod: ${startKesPeriod}

do you use the whole number?

Before continuing, your node must be fully synchronized to the blockchain. Otherwise, you won’t calculate the latest KES period. Your node is synchronized when the epoch and slot# is equal to that found on a block explorer such as

yes, wait for the sync
