1. Update WalletNode

1.a Download pastelup to Wallet host

• https://download.pastel.network/#latest-release/pastelup/ 1.b Update existing pastelup
• ./pastelup-linux-amd64 update pastelup

2. Stop pastel software

./pastelup-darwin-amd64 stop walletnode

2. Run the update command

./pastelup-darwin-amd64 update walletnode

• The above command will update the following applications:
  • pasteld

2. Update SuperNode (HOT/HOT)

NOTE: SuperNode Update assumes that:

• REMOTE host has:
  • pastel node (pasteld and pastel-cli) running as masternode,
  • wallet with collateral transaction for SN(s)
  • masternode.conf for SN(s)
  • All other services: supernode, rq-service, dd-service, hermes
• OPTIONAL: LOCAL host - the user's computer used for performing upgrade

2.1 Update existing client to latest Pastel Chain version FROM LOCAL host

• https://download.pastel.network/#latest-release/pastelup/ 1.b Update existing pastelup
• ./pastelup-linux-amd64 update pastelup

2. Stop pastel software on REMOTE host by running the following command from LOCAL node

./pastelup-darwin-amd64 stop supernode remote --ssh-ip <IP address of REMOTE node> --ssh-user <ssh user of REMOTE node> --ssh-key <path to the key of REMOTE node user>

3. Update REMOTE node by running the following command from LOCAL node:

./pastelup-darwin-amd64 update supernode remote --ssh-ip <IP address of REMOTE node> --ssh-user <ssh user of REMOTE node> --ssh-key <path to the key of REMOTE node user>

• The above command will update the following applications:
  • pasteld
  • pastel-cli
  • rq-server

3. Update SuperNode (COLD/HOT)

NOTE: SuperNode Update assumes that SuperNode is established via a COLD/HOT mode set-up where:

• COLD node has:
  • pastel node (pasteld and pastel-cli) set as simple node (not as masternode),
  • wallet with collateral transaction for SN(s) that ran on HOT node(s)
  • masternode.conf for SN(s) that ran on HOT node(s)
• HOT node has:
  • pastel node (pasteld and pastel-cli) running as masternode
  • All other services: supernode, rq-service, dd-service, hermes
• OPTIONAL: LOCAL host - the user's computer used for performing upgrade, this CAN be the COLD node
