📣 Dear validators, an important node update is ahead.
❗️Important❗️
During this update, the node will be inoperable and stop validation for an hour or more.
To maintain network health, follow these rules:
▫️ Do not update more than one node at a time.
▫️ After updating the node and restoring timediff, wait 6 hours before updating the next one.
▫️ Inform the RU EN validators chat about the beginning and completion of the node update.
⚠️ Attention: if a large number of nodes are updated at the same time, this may lead to network instability. Be careful when updating.
📌 Update Instructions
‼️ Attention: do not update the next node until the previous one has worked successfully for 6 hours.‼️
If you use @Custler scripts
1️⃣ They will automatically pick up a convenient update time and update your node
2️⃣ If the database cannot recover on its own and the node goes to the db_broken status, the script PostUpdate_Actions.sh running automatically and resync database
For manual updates
1️⃣ build the node and the tools
Node commit id:
5c3951a4de03833a49079d1c07ad5a05798df169
Node Tools commit id:

2️⃣ Start a new node (~ 1 hour)
The node will start restoring the database and stop validation
The node gives the status
"sync_status": "checking_db"3️⃣ If the node has restored the database successfully It will sync the blocks that were missed while restoring the database (~30 minutes)
4️⃣ Node start validation and do some checks (~30 minutes)
5️⃣ Node save new DB state. The node stop validation and resync (~30 minutes)
6️⃣ Node sync the blocks and restore validation
‼️ Attention: do not update the next node until the previous one has worked successfully for 6 hours. ‼️
⚠️ If the recovery failed and the node switched to the status
"sync_status": "db_broken"In this case, you need to delete the old database and synch with the network again.
Full sync time more than 12 hours
❓How to check node status?
./console -C /path/to/console.json -c "getstats"
