Before you begin, make sure to back up our node. This is crucial in case your node goes down, the hard drive is damaged, or for any other reason you might lose your node. You can recover your progress with these files.
cd
cp ~/.avalanchego/staking/staker.crt .
cp ~/.avalanchego/staking/staker.key .
After that, I have copied it into my other computer.
Execute the auto installer by running this command. It will stop the service, check for the latest update binary, and install it for you.
That’s it. check if it run normally.
Setup new config
Go to the path below and copy it to your home directory for backup.
cd .avalanchego/configs/chains/2tmrrBo1Lgt1mzzvPSFt73kkQKFas5d1AP88tv9cicwoFp8BSn cp upgrade.json /home/huicom
Delete the old file and download the new upgrade.json.
rm upgrade.json wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BuildOnBeam/beam-subnet/main/subnets/beam-mainnet/upgrade.json
