# Kava-3 Upgrade Instructions
|
|
|
|
## Background
|
|
|
|
The version of Kava for kava-3 is __v0.8__. Kava-3 is scheduled to launch __June 10, 2020 at 14:00 UTC__
|
|
|
|
🚨 Please note that an issue with tendermint v0.33 has been found that affects the stability of nodes running with the default pruning strategy. Please see the [Pruning](#Pruning) section for full details and mitigation 🚨
|
|
|
|
Many changes have occurred in both the Kava software and the cosmos-sdk software since the launch of kava-2. The primary changes in Kava are the addition of modules that comprise the [CDP system](https://docs.kava.io/). To review cosmos-sdk changes, see the [changelog](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/v0.38.4/CHANGELOG.md) and note that kava-3 is launching with __v0.38.4__ of the cosmos-sdk.
|
|
|
|
If you have technical questions or concerns, ask a developer or community member in the [Kava discord](https://discord.com/invite/kQzh3Uv).

|
### 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.
|
|
|
|
### Pruning
|
|
|
|
kava-3 uses tendermint version 0.33. Recent testing in Game of Zones and Kava has shown that nodes which are running with the default or custom pruning strategy have a [memory leak](https://github.com/tendermint/iavl/issues/256) that can cause nodes to crash and lead to irrecoverable data loss. Until a patch is released, the __ONLY__ pruning strategies that are safe to run are `nothing` (an archival node, where nothing is deleted) or `everything` (only the most recent state is kept). It is __strongly__ recommended that validators use `pruning="nothing"` for kava-3.
|
|
|
|
The pruning config is set in $HOME/.kvd/config/app.toml. Example safe configurations are:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
pruning = "nothing"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
pruning = "everything"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It is expected that a patch to tendermint will be released in a non-breaking manner and that nodes will be able to update seamlessly after the launch of kava-3.
|
|
|
|
### Recovery
|
|
|
|
Prior to exporting kava-2 state, validators are encouraged to take a full data snapshot at the export height before proceeding. Snapshotting depends heavily on infrastructure, but generally this can be done by backing up the .kvd and .kvcli directories.
|
|
|
|
It is critically important to back-up the .kvd/data/priv_validator_state.json file after stopping your kvd 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 v0.3.5 of the Kava software and restore to their latest snapshot before restarting their nodes.
|
|
|
|
## Upgrade Procedure
|
|
|
|
Set your node to produce the final block of kava-2 at __13:00__ UTC June 10th, 2020. To restart your node with that stop time,
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
kvd start --halt-time 1591794000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Kava developers will update this PR with the final block number when it is reached. __Make sure the kvd 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.
|
|
|
|
1. Export state
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
kvd export --for-zero-height > export-genesis.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Update to kava-3
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# in the `kava` folder
|
|
git pull
|
|
git checkout v0.8.1
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
# verify versions
|
|
kvd version --long
|
|
# name: kava
|
|
# server_name: kvd
|
|
# client_name: kvcli
|
|
# version: 0.8.1
|
|
# commit: 869189054d68d6ec3e6446156ea0a91eb45af09c
|
|
# build_tags: netgo,ledger
|
|
# go: go version go1.13.7 linux/amd64
|
|
|
|
# Migrate keys
|
|
kvcli keys migrate
|
|
|
|
# Migrate genesis state
|
|
kvd migrate export-genesis.json > migrated-genesis.json
|
|
|
|
# Migrate parameters
|
|
kvd write-params migrated-genesis.json --chain-id kava-3 --genesis-time 2020-06-10T14:00:00Z > genesis.json
|
|
|
|
# Verify output of genesis migration
|
|
kvd validate-genesis genesis.json # should say it's valid
|
|
shasum -a 256 genesis.json
|
|
# [PLACEHOLDER]
|
|
|
|
# Restart node with migrated genesis state
|
|
cp genesis.json ~/.kvd/config/genesis.json
|
|
kvd unsafe-reset-all
|
|
kvd start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Coordination
|
|
|
|
If the `kava-3` chain does not launch by June 10, 2020 at 16:00 UTC, the launch should be considered a failure. Validators should restore the state from `kava-2` and coordinate a relaunch. In the event of launch failure, coordination will occur in the [Kava discord](https://discord.com/invite/kQzh3Uv).
