Attention Node Operators! Mandatory updates!

[sbvegan]

Attention Node Operators! There is a new mandatory release of the op-node and op-geth software in preparation for upcoming network upgrades:

• Delta activates on Mainnet at Thu Feb 22 00:00:00 UTC 2024
• Ecotone activates on Goerli at Tue Feb 6 17:00:00 UTC 2024

Please update your node software and for folks still running Goerli nodes, configure your Beacon endpoint. Failure to do so before activation will cause a chain divergence and you will need to resync your nodes.

For more release software and details see the following documentation:

• https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/releases/tag/v1.5.0
• https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/op-geth/releases/tag/v1.101305.3
• https://docs.optimism.io/builders/node-operators/releases
• https://docs.optimism.io/builders/node-operators/network-upgrades/overview

If you’re running op-erigon or op-reth, wait for op-node v1.5.1 release next week that addresses an Engine API fix to address compatibility.
