## Software Version and Key Dates
|
|
|
|
- The version of `kava` for Kava 16 is `v0.26.0`
|
|
- The Kava 16 chain will be shutdown with a `SoftwareUpgradeProposal` that
|
|

## Dependency Changes

|
|
|
## API Changes
|
|
|
|
If you are a consumers of the legacy REST API known as the LCD, please note that this has been deprecated as a part of cosmos-sdk v47. [Additional details can be found here.](./legacy_rest.md)

|
### For validators using RocksDB
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> If you use goleveldb or other database backends, this is not required.
|
|
|
|
If you use RocksDB as your database backend, you will need to update RocksDB if you are using `<= v8.1.1`. The tested and recommended RocksDB version is `v8.10.0`.
|
|
Please reference the [RocksDB repository](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/v8.10.0) to update your installation before building the RocksDB kava binary.
|
|
|
|
### On the day of the upgrade
|
|
|
|
The kava chain is expected to halt at block height **xxx**. **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 1.21.x and not a different version.** Golang 1.20 and below may cause app hash mismatches!
|
|
|
|
To update to v0.26.0
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# check go version - look for 1.21!
|
|
go version
|
|
# go version go1.21.9 linux/amd64
|
|
|
|
# in the `kava` folder
|
|
git fetch
|
|
git checkout v0.26.0
|
|
|
|
# Note: Golang 1.21 must be installed before this step
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
# verify versions
|
|
kava version --long
|
|
# name: kava
|
|
# server_name: kava
|
|
# version: 0.26.0
|
|
# commit: 667e532aaafaab216d874ff670fb299d9b951375
|
|
# build_tags: netgo ledger,
|
|
# go: go version go1.21.9 linux/amd64
|
|
# build_deps:
|
|
# ...
|
|
# cosmos_sdk_version: v0.47.10
|
|
|
|
# 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 16 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 v0.25.x of the Kava software and restore to their latest snapshot before restarting their nodes.
|
|
|
|
### Coordination
|
|
|
|
If the Kava 16 chain does not launch by April 25th 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).
