Incident Response

Current implementation, supported use and explicit qualification limits.

Experimental Feature

This feature is experimental and may change significantly in future versions.

Current release status

Public document hashing and exact integer aggregation are live with signed results. Native consensus, mining, issuance, COMPUTE payments and rewards are inactive. Independent operation is not yet demonstrated.

Operational guidance

Preserve evidence and current validated state. Stop local affected acceptance on integrity/source/account mismatch, unsafe runtime conditions or failed recovery prerequisites. Do not run destructive production tests.

Forward recovery

After native canonical advancement, administrator recovery must not restoreheight-7 balances, erase accepted history or restart an obsolete writer. Protocol-valid reorganisations remain a disclosed risk; broadcasts cannot be recalled and refunds/retries are not automatic.

Authority

These are preparation instructions, not authorisation to change live servers, firewalls, credentials, financial state or governance.

Durability, interruption and safe recovery

Qualification can rehearse interruptions without touching protected mainnet state. Recovery must distinguish service evidence from canonical financial records.

BoundaryImplementation / evidenceMeaning
Public evidenceRetained signed result JSONVerify signatures and compare the original service lookup
Private node stateOwn identity / durable local storeNever restore an unrelated or stale writer
SnapshotsVerified source and state hashesRestore into a fresh qualification directory first
Production cutoverExclusive authoritative writer / explicit approvalNot enabled by a website or installer

Practical procedure

  1. 1Keep verified evidence, exact source/runtime pins and current state.
  2. 2Stop only your own affected qualification process on an integrity failure.
  3. 3Restart with the same verified private identity and validate the recovered head.
  4. 4Use forward recovery after real canonical advancement; do not reset historical balances.
Technical reference · scope is explicit
Preserve evidence → verify hashes → fresh restore rehearsal
→ validate complete history/accounting → start one authorized writer

Starter recovery test: private process restart only.
No production rollback, service restart or funds are involved.

Limits and failure cases

  • Local simulated restarts are not independent WAN continuity evidence.
  • No instruction here authorizes production service/firewall/authentication changes.
  • Private identities and financial wallets must never be uploaded as diagnostic evidence.
