# Kava 14 Upgrade Instructions
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Software Version and Key Dates
|
||
|
|
||
|
- The version of `kava` for Kava 14 is v0.24.0
|
||
|
- The Kava 13 chain will be shutdown with a `SoftwareUpgradeProposal` that activates at approximately 15:00 UTC on July, 12th 2023.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Configuration Changes
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
**For validators with existing configurations, it is recommended to set `evm.max-tx-gas-wanted = 0` in app.toml to avoid proposing blocks that exceed the block gas limit.**
|
||
|
|
||
|
In previous versions, the default was non-zero and was used to mitigate DDoS style gas attacks. However, this setting is not required anymore and can safely be set to zero.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
### On the day of the upgrade
|
||
|
|
||
|
**The kava chain is expected to halt at block height **5597000**. Do not stop your node and begin the upgrade before the upgrade height, or you may go offline and be unable to recover until after the upgrade!**
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Make sure the kava process is stopped before proceeding and that you have backed up your validator**. Failure to backup your validator could make it impossible to restart your node if the upgrade fails.
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Ensure you are using golang 1.20.x and not aa different version.** Golang 1.19 and below may cause app hash mismatches!
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Update to v0.24.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
# check go version - look for 1.20!
|
||
|
go version
|
||
|
# go version go1.20.5 linux/arm64
|
||
|
|
||
|
# in the `kava` folder
|
||
|
git fetch
|
||
|
git checkout v0.24.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Note: Golang 1.20 must be installed before this step
|
||
|
make install
|
||
|
|
||
|
# verify versions
|
||
|
kava version --long
|
||
|
# name: kava
|
||
|
# server_name: kava
|
||
|
# version: 0.24.0
|
||
|
# commit: <commit placeholder>
|
||
|
# build_tags: netgo ledger,
|
||
|
# go: go version go1.20.5 linux/arm64
|
||
|
# build_deps:
|
||
|
# ...
|
||
|
# cosmos_sdk_version: v0.46.11
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Restart node -
|
||
|
kava start
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Risks
|
||
|
|
||
|
As a validator, performing the upgrade procedure on your consensus nodes carries a heightened risk of double-signing and being slashed. The most important piece of this procedure is verifying your software version and genesis file hash before starting your validator and signing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The riskiest thing a validator can do is discover that they made a mistake and repeat the upgrade procedure again during the network startup. If you discover a mistake in the process, the best thing to do is wait for the network to start before correcting it. If the network is halted and you have started with a different genesis file than the expected one, seek advice from a Kava developer before resetting your validator.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Recovery
|
||
|
|
||
|
Prior to applying the Kava 14 upgrade, validators are encouraged to take a full data snapshot at the upgrade height before proceeding. Snap-shotting depends heavily on infrastructure, but generally this can be done by backing up the .kava directory.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is critically important to back-up the .kava/data/priv_validator_state.json file after stopping your kava process. This file is updated every block as your validator participates in consensus rounds. It is a critical file needed to prevent double-signing, in case the upgrade fails and the previous chain needs to be restarted.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the event that the upgrade does not succeed, validators and operators must downgrade back to v0.23.x of the Kava software and restore to their latest snapshot before restarting their nodes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Coordination
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the Kava 14 chain does not launch by July 13th, 2023 at 00:00 UTC, the launch should be considered a failure. In the event of launch failure, coordination will occur in the [Kava discord](https://discord.com/invite/kQzh3Uv).
