Getting Prepared for the Upgrade

Upgrade instructions will be available in upgrade docs. We recommend validators utilize 96GB of RAM. This upgrade brings state change and might take a few minutes to complete. If you are unable to have 96GB of RAM, at a minimum have a total of 96GB of swap set to prevent out of memory errors. Validators and RPCs supervised by cosmovisor with DAEMON_ALLOW_DOWNLOAD_BINARIES=true will pick up upgrade binaries from upgrade info. Please note upgrade info will be available 24-72h prior upgrade height.
