Hyperledger Fabric channel creation, cannot get Channel-ID.block

Question

I have been trying to create my first network and followed the official docs. But I have been trying to create the channel using following command:

peer channel create -o orderer.example.com:7050 -c mychannel -f ./channel-artifacts/channel.tx --tls $CORE_PEER_TLS_ENABLED --cafile /opt/gopath/src/github.com/hyperledger/fabric/peer/crypto/ordererOrganizations/example.com/orderers/orderer.example.com/msp/tlscacerts/tlsca.example.com-cert.pem

While it did not gave me any errors I got the following response:

So my problem is I don't see any in the response. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Answer 1

peer channel create ...

return a genesis block (a file, mychannel.block in your case) which is supplied in

peer channel join -b mychannel.block

this will join the peer to mychannel.
