Have you updated to LND 0.17 yet?

Here is my checklist for updating my nodes, and a blog post from Velas Commerce with an LND #Lightning Node Troubleshooting Guide to use in the unlikely event that you run into any trouble!

Step one - Backups

✅ Generate static channel backup file

$ lncli --network=testnet exportchanbackup --all --output_file=channel.backup

✅ Copy channel.backup to local

$ rsync -avz -e "ssh -i /home/[user]/.ssh/key.pem" ubuntu@[IP address]:/home/ubuntu/channel.backup channel.backup

✅ Gracefully stop LND

$ lncli --network=testnet stop

✅ Also stop via systemd or disable the service $ sudo systemctl stop lnd

✅ Copy channel.db file to local

$ rsync -avz -e "ssh -i /home/[user]/.ssh/key.pem " ubuntu@[IP address]:/home/ubuntu/.lnd/data/graph/testnet/channel.db channel.db

✅ Check file size

$ ls -la

Step two - Upgrade

✅ Pull down latest $ git pull

✅ Checkout new version

$ git checkout v0.17.0-beta

✅ Remake $ make clean && make && make install tags="autopilotrpc chainrpc invoicesrpc peersrpc routerrpc signrpc walletrpc watchtowerrpc wtclientrpc"

$ lncli --network=testnet version

Step three - Restart

✅ Start LND

$ sudo systemctl start lnd

$ lncli --network=testnet getinfo LND
