Upgrade Guide (explorer nodes)

This guide is intended specifically for explorer nodes.

Since we don't host snapshots for explorer DBs, some extra steps are required to update from V1.0.0 to V2.0.0.

Step 1 - Stop all running containers​

sudo docker stop $(sudo docker ps -q)

Step 2 - Pull the latest quickstart script​

cd to quickstart.sh location
wget -O quickstart.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fuseio/fuse-network/master/scripts/quickstart.sh

Step 3 - Upgrade your DB using OEs upgrade tool​

It is highly recommended to back up your database folder before attempting!.

Follow the instruction here to upgrade from V13->V16 DBs https://github.com/openethereum/3.1-db-upgrade-tool. The database is stored in (path to quickstart.sh)/fusenet/database/FuseNetwork/db/dee77c98f8210dbb/archive

Step 4 - Update the Client version in env file and rerun quickstart​

vim .env
Add the following (without quotes) "CLIENT=OE"
Save and exit :w :q
sudo ./quickstart.sh

Step 5 - Verify Upgrade​

Check your node on our health site It should be online, and the client should be "OpenEthereum//v3.2.6-stable" ensure your node is connected to peers and syncing/ in sync
