Steps to Prune the node

1. Check your Bor data size before pruning

   du -sh /usr/bin/bor
   

2. Stop Bor

   sudo service bor stop
   

3. Start tmux to ensure that even if your SSH connection is reset, the process is running on the remote machine tmux.
   
   

4. Start pruning.

   sudo bor snapshot prune-state --datadir  /usr/bin/bor
   

   The default –datadir is /usr/bin/bor.
   
   

5. Once the pruning is completed, you will see success logs and details. Then start Bor again.

   sudo service bor start
   

6. Check your Bor data size after pruning.

   du -sh  /usr/bin/bor
