Pendulum Nodes

Introduction

Node upgrades are required for all collators when a new node version is released. It is very important that all nodes on the network maintain the same node version.

We provide our partners with the following installables.

• Docker Image

• .deb Ubuntu package for Ubuntu 20/22

• Precompiled binary

Docker image

The official Pendulum docker image is located in https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/pendulumchain/pendulum-collator/general
