Notes

The Nimbus consensus client v26.9.0 is a high-urgency release for Sepolia due to its 6th October Glamsterdam fork activation and a medium-urgency release for other networks. Furthermore, it alters --history=archive not to archive columns past the 18-day retention window; if this is desired, use --history=column-archive.

Urgency guidelines

low-urgency: update at your own convenience, sometime within our normal monthly update cycle

medium-urgency: may contain an important stability fix, it is better to update sooner rather than later

high-urgency: update as soon as you can, this is a critical update required for Nimbus to function correctly
