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 exporting kava-9 state, validators are encouraged to take a full data snapshot at the export height before proceeding.
