2. The Iroha peer read and validates the genesis block configuration
3. The Iroha peer starts the Iroha network according to the configuration in the genesis block
4. The Iroha peer provides "successfully started" report to the administrator

• The Iroha network is running
• The administrator has access to the root account of the network

• At step 2, in case of the invalid genesis block, the Iroha peer shows corresponding error messages to the administrator and halts the network creation process

• The Iroha network is running
• The administrator has access to the account with permissions of adding peers to the network

Use case flow

1. The administrator configures and starts the new peer
2. The administrator prepares the transaction with instruction to add the new peer
3. The administrator sends the prepared transaction to the existing Iroha peer (<<include>> FR0100)
4. The existing Iroha peer initiates connection with the new Iroha peer
5. The new Iroha peer synchronizes the block-storage with existing Iroha peers
6. The new Iroha peer start functioning as fully functional peer in the current Iroha network

• The new peer is added into the network

• On step 5, if the synchronization cannot be finished for some reason, the new Iroha peer cannot join the network; use case stops

Use case flow

Use case flow

• The user has an account in the Iroha network
• The user has prepared the transaction for sending; transactions can consist of several instructions
• The user has permissions to execute all instruction included in the transaction
• The Iroha network is working in normal condition

Use case flow

1. The user sends the transaction to the Iroha peer through the API
2. The Iroha peer receives the transaction and validates its contents
3. The Iroha peer checks that the user's account have enough permissions to run all instructions included in the transaction
4. The Iroha peer executes the transaction by applying it to the current block
5. The Iroha peer returns the result of the operation to the user

• The transaction is successfully executed and applied to the network state

• On step 4, if the current user's account is multi-signature, the result of the transaction will be applied to the block-store only when the number of signatures will reach the current quorum value. In other cases, the Iroha peer will return "pending" status as a response on step 5.

• On step 2, one of the instructions has invalid structure, the Iroha peer returns an error message with description to the user and stops the flow
• On step 3, if the user's account does not have required permissions to execute one of the instructions, the Iroha peer returns information about that error and stops the flow
• On step 3, in case of a multi-signature transaction, if the instruction signed using the key pair, which was already used for signing that instruction, the Iroha peer will return "already signed" error status and stop the flow

2. The user prepares instruction to send to the Iroha network according to the prepared information
3. The user sends the transaction with the instruction to the Iroha peer (<<include>> FR0100)

Use case flow

1. The user prepares the instruction parameters according to his/her needs
2. The user sends the transaction with the instruction into the Iroha peer (<<includes>> FR0100)
3. The user uses the same connection for obtaining the status of the instruction finalization
4. The Iroha peer sends updates about the instruction finalization status to the user
5. The user receives the "successfully finalized" status about the instruction

• The instruction is accepted and finalized in the block-storage
• The user did not spend additional resources for redundant network connections and requests

• At step 4 if the instruction cannot pass the validation, the user would not get the "successfully finalized" status; instead, he/she will get the "invalid instruction" status.
