Migration guide (v1 to v2)

This tutorial shows step-by-step instructions on how to migrate your old v1 RISE Node to the new v2 RISE network.

Process overview

1. Community agrees on a specific migration block (block on which everyone will switch their nodes)
2. Everyone logs into their terminal and issues 2 commands - one to get the RISE CLI tool and one to start watching the block changes
3. Once the migration block has been reached, RISE CLI will automatically stop, migrate and start the new version
4. Migration is scheduled for 2019-10-18T14:00:18.194Z (Friday) at block 2432687

Migration steps

1. Log into your server and go to the RISE v1 directory
2. Install Node.js v10
   wget --quiet -O - https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo bash; sudo apt install nodejs
3. Download RISE CLI
   wget --quiet -O rise https://github.com/RiseVision/rise-node/releases/latest/download/rise; chmod +x rise
4. Run screen to keep the session active after you disconnect
   sudo apt install screen if not installed
5. Run ./rise download
6. Run sudo ./rise node install-deps
7. Run ./rise migrate
8. Wait till 2019-09-10T13:43:04.644Z for the migration to happen
9. You can go back to the active session by running screen -x

Starting RISE Node v2

Starting a migrated RISE node is very similar to starting a regular v2 node, with the difference of --v1 param, which will automatically use the DB shipped with the previous version.

./rise node start --v1

Checking Current Status

./rise node status --v1

To find out more about RISE CLI, run ./rise.
