Storage Miner Upgrade Guide

Introduction

For better data transmission, we need to upgrade our storage miner to latest version which is incompatible with the old version.

Add configuration: apiendpoint and timeout

  • apiendpoint: An external ip:port or domain which can be accessed by public network, default value: hostPublicIP:port

  • Timeout: Default 12 seconds for transaction with chain.

Delete configuration: Boot

Attention: Storage miner will not use public tee nodes on chain if set custom tee nodes in config.yaml

How to Upgrade

For nodeadm user

# step 1: update nodeadm client
# https://github.com/CESSProject/cess-nodeadm/releases
wget https://github.com/CESSProject/cess-nodeadm/archive/vx.x.x.tar.gz
tar -xvf vx.x.x.tar.gz
cd cess-nodeadm-x.x.x
sudo ./install.sh --skip-dep

# step 2: update related images
$ sudo cess pullimg

# step 3: update config file
$ sudo cess config set
# Start configuring the endpoint to access Storage-Miner from the internet
# Do you need to automatically detect extranet address as endpoint? (y/n)  need_detect
# ...

# step 4: restart service
$ sudo cess restart

For mineradm user

# step 1: update mineradm client
sudo wget https://github.com/CESSProject/cess-multiminer-admin/archive/latest.tar.gz -O /tmp/latest.tar.gz && cd /tmp
sudo tar -xvf latest.tar.gz
cd cess-multiminer-admin-latest
sudo bash ./install.sh --no-rmi --retain-config --skip-dep --keep-running

# step 2: update related images
$ sudo mineradm pullimg

# step 3: update config file
# Attention: Storage miner will not use public tee nodes on chain if set custom tee nodes in config.yaml
method 1: edit /opt/cess/mineradm/config.yaml based on the old config file: /opt/cess/mineradm/.old_config.yaml
method 2: use default value of apiendpoint/Timeout: cat /opt/cess/mineradm/.old_config.yaml > /opt/cess/mineradm/config.yaml

# step 4: generate new config file
$ sudo mineradm config generate

# step 5: restart service
$ sudo mineradm down
$ sudo mineradm install
