When the network reaches the halt height 4,711,950, you'll see this message in your node's log (journalctl -fu secret-node

Then, the upgrade steps for v1.4 are:

) you will need to re-apply those changes post installation and pre service restart.

After restarting the node with v1.4, you should see INF applying upgrade "v1.4-fix" at height: 4711950
in the logs (journalctl -fu secret-node
). Once 67% of voting power comes online, you'll see blocks executing again.
Cosmovisor is a new process manager for cosmos blockchains. It can make low-downtime upgrades smoother, as validators don't have to manually upgrade binaries during the upgrade, and instead can pre-install new binaries, and Cosmovisor will automatically update them based on on-chain SoftwareUpgrade proposals.
For instructions on how to setup Cosmovisor, go here.
When the network reaches the halt height 4,711,950, the Secret Network testnet blockchain will be halted and validators will need to take action to upgrade the chain to the secretd v1.4 binary (be it manually or automatically).
The proposal targets the upgrade proposal block to be 4,711,950, anticipated to be on Sunday Septmber 11, 2022 at 2:00PM UTC.
The upgrade is anticipated to take approx 30 minutes, during which time, there will not be any on-chain activity on the network.
In the event of an issue at upgrade time, we should coordinate via the "SN Testnet Validators" Telegram group.
If as a result of a software bug the network fails to produce new blocks with the v1.4 binaries, the SCRT Labs team will distribute a v1.3 binary with an empty v1.4 upgrade handler, which will essentially allow the chain to revert to v1.3 while continuing to produce new blocks.
