Hive-Engine Witness Node, upgrade to v1.9.0
I am running a Hive-Engine witness node for a long time now. Today I took five minutes, maybe ten, to upgrade the node from v1.8.3 to v1.9.0. It was a mandatory upgrade since some breaking changes were introduced.
Here is the list of improvements and fixes in the latest release. Kudos to all the authors that contributed to it: @primersion, @rishi556, and @cryptomancer. Appreciated!
The process of upgrade was a very straightforward one. In fact, I didn't upgrade the node. I installed it anew and applied config and environment settings to the new installation.
The steps taken were:
-- clone main branch into he190 subdirectory -- step into directory and check branch On branch main -- compile node app -- backup the default config -- copy over config from old app -- edit start block to 41967000 -- copy environment settings -- stop and delete current app, run the new version -- that's it Next steps? I need to edit the config since the light node settings were improved a bit. Do you have any vested $workerbee? I ask you for your support.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/hive-engine/hivesmartcontracts.git he190

Congrats for upgrading it!
Just curious to know how long it took to upgrade?
Sound's like it was pretty fast.
It was less than ten minutes. If everything is working as it should then the process is very straightforward.
Keeping in mind, of course, that the whole environment is already set:
