We are planning to upgrade BetaNet to version 2.0.13 on Monday, Apr 13th 2020 10:30AM EST.
If you have your node set to automatic updates, you don’t need to do anything. It will automatically update to the newer version whenever that becomes available.
If this is not the case, you can update the binary, but aren’t required to do so. Given that this is a protocol upgrade release, this upgrade is required.
Summary of Contained Changes in Upgrade:
-
Other
- Add e2e test for upgrading from v21 to v22
- Fix TestStoppedCatchupOnUnsupported test bug
- Misc other bug fixes
Protocol Upgrade
This release contains a consensus protocol upgrade.
To update your current version of BetaNet to 2.0.13, run the following goal command:
./update.sh -c beta -i -d <betanet-data-directory> -n
If you haven’t already done so, we also advise setting up a CRON job to automatically update your algorand networks. If you haven’t done this for BetaNet, you can follow the instructions here:
