# Public testnet upgrade v0.4

# Validate the environment

  1. Clone the repo: https://github.com/CudoVentures/cudos-network-upgrade
git clone https://github.com/CudoVentures/cudos-network-upgrade.git
  1. Navigate to ./cudos-network-upgrade/config
  2. Make a copy of .env.example and name it ".env"
cp ./cudos-network-upgrade/config/.env.example ./cudos-network-upgrade/config/.env
  1. Open the .env and define the 2 variables. "WORKING_DIR" must point to the folder that contains "CudosNode", "CudosBuilders", "CudosGravityBridge" and "CudosData". Set "SHOULD_USE_PREDEFINED_GENESIS" to "true".
  2. Execute the following script based on node-type (full/seed/sentry) from the cudos-network-upgrade directory

For full-node:

sudo ./validate.sh testnet-public full-node client

For seed-node:

sudo ./validate.sh testnet-public seed-node client

For sentry-node:

sudo ./validate.sh testnet-public sentry-node client
  1. Let us know of the outcome of the script above. The expected result is "OK: Verification was successful".

# Upgrade the network

# Prepare the repo

  1. Clone the repo: https://github.com/CudoVentures/cudos-network-upgrade
git clone https://github.com/CudoVentures/cudos-network-upgrade.git
  1. Navigate to ./cudos-network-upgrade/config
  2. Make a copy of .env.example and name it ".env"
cp ./cudos-network-upgrade/config/.env.example ./cudos-network-upgrade/config/.env
  1. Open the .env and define the 2 variables. "WORKING_DIR" must point to the folder that contains "CudosNode", "CudosBuilders", "CudosGravityBridge" and "CudosData". Set "SHOULD_USE_PREDEFINED_GENESIS" to "true".

# Run the upgrade

AVAILABLE COMMANDS

There are 4 commands to help us perform the upgrade

  1. create-backup.sh - Creates a copy of all blockchain related date
  2. restore-backup.sh - Restores the data from the prevously made backup (using create-back.sh)
  3. clean-backup.sh - Removes all backup related files
  4. upgrade.sh - Upgrades the network.

PARAMETERS

The above commands have the same parameters in the following format:

< command > < network > < node > < mode >

command could be one of the following 4 - create-backup.sh, restore-backup.sh, clean-backup.sh, upgrade.sh

network is testnet-public

node could be one of the following 3 - full-node, seed-node, sentry-node

mode is client

UPGRADE PROCEDURE

  1. Create a backup
  2. Upgrade the network
  3. If everything runs successfully then clean the backups, otherwise get in touch with us.

EXAMPLES

Full-node:

./create-backup.sh testnet-public full-node client

./upgrade.sh testnet-public full-node client

./clean-backup.sh testnet-public full-node client [If everything is successfull and your node is producing blocks]

Seed-node:

./create-backup.sh testnet-public seed-node client

./upgrade.sh testnet-public seed-node client

./clean-backup.sh testnet-public seed-node client [If everything is successfull and your node is producing blocks]

Sentry-node:

./create-backup.sh testnet-public sentry-node client

./upgrade.sh testnet-public sentry-node client

./clean-backup.sh testnet-public sentry-node client [If everything is successfull and your node is producing blocks]

# If the Upgrade Fails

If you already started the upgrade process and the upgrade.sh phase has failed:

  1. Delete the cudos-network-upgrade directory
  2. Reclone the repo
  3. The validate.sh script is not required at this point.
  4. You should already have a clean backup, please keep this.
  • Do not rerun the backup!
  1. Instead of running ./upgrade.sh, run ./fix.sh with the same parameters. (The changes to the script include changes to the directory names and a change to the validate.sh script to handle a partial upgrade)
  2. You should now see validator activity in the log

If you haven’t started the upgrade process yet:

  1. Delete the cudos-network-upgrade directory
  2. Reclone the upgrade repo
  3. Run through the process according to the previous docs!

Please be aware that a necessary part of this upgrade is a change to the Chain ID from cudos-testnet-public to cudos-testnet-public-2, this is common practice for Cosmos-based chains. Note that some old docs may refer to the old Chain ID.

# If the ./fix.sh script fails due to no container running:

Simply add --force to the ./fix.sh command, this passes over the check for the running container.
