How to claim an unclaimed balance?

I have an unclaimed balance.

I want to know how to claim the balance.

Or when can I claim it?

As soon as v2.0 is fully launched, you will be able to claim.
Your rewards pre 1.4.19.x will auto-claim even if you do nothing.
To claim your post 1.4.19.x rewards, you need to update your node to 2.0 within a week.

Updating is all you need to do, basically.

Please tell me, because I rented a vps to run, but due to cost issues, it stopped running in version 21. However, I have backed up my .config folder. I should be able to move it to other machines to get it by then?

Sure

Just install a fresh node on another machine, stop it, change the node/.config folder with yours, and then restart the node.

The simplest way I’ve found to get a backed up copy working is:

git clone https://github.com/QuilibriumNetwork/ceremonyclient.git
cd ceremonyclient/node
cp -r <path-to-backed-up-config>/.config .
...
# proceed to start with service or however you choose
## this should start working without needing to swap .config directories

Absolutely, but when using an auto-installer, the script automatically starts the node service, so you have to stop it first.
Most first timers use auto-installers :wink:

I’d recommend that the auto-installer creators separate out the install and start process or be able to optionally pass in a directory (that points to the backed up .config dir) that will copy it to the .config dir so that way when it starts up the user’s backed up server is there.

For my auto-installer there is a menu option to back up the node on StorJ and then another to restore it.
This is also a way to allow people to easily migrate, as they will always have an update backup on StorJ that can restore wherever they want.

For those that want to follow the manual method, the steps you suggested are the way to go.

I have added those steps to the migration guide as well:
