sudo nodectl configure -e -d -cb
Press R to turn off Auto Restart, then Q to quit. 

Leave the Layer 1/0 cluster 

sudo nodectl leave -p dag-l1
sudo nodectl leave -p dag-l0

Download the latest script in the /tmp folder

cd /tmp
sudo curl -o starchiverT3-ext.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StardustCollective/Starchive-Extractor/main/starchiverT3-ext.sh
 
Make the script executable 

sudo chmod +x starchiverT3-ext.sh
 
Run Starchiver 2025 with the delete switch to wipe and refresh everything 

sudo ./starchiverT3-ext.sh -d

Clear out java process so it starts fresh.

sudo kill -9 $(ps aux | grep '[j]ava' | awk '{print $2}')
