Steps for Upgrading Heimdall

Before proceeding, please create a backup of your heimdall config file whose default location is: /var/lib/heimdall/config/config.toml. This might differ if you have setup heimdall at a different location.

  1. Stop heimdalld service

    sudo service heimdalld stop

  2. Install heimdall with a version tag, network name (amoy), and node type (sentry or validator).

    # Replace the network and node type
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maticnetwork/install/main/heimdall.sh | bash -s -- v1.2.0-beta <network> <node_type>

  3. Check heimdall version

    /usr/bin/heimdalld version

# It should print
# 1.2.0-beta

  4. Restart heimdall service

    sudo service heimdalld start

  5. Restart the telemetry services

    sudo service telemetry restart
