I'd like to see cosmovisor widely adopted by validators. In order to gain their trust in using the codebase features like making backups to the data directory are under way. In order to further demonstrate that it is safe and easy to use I would like to have validators try it out before the next upgrade. Typically validators would participate in a testnet in order to test out new features. However it's traditionally been hard to get validators to participate in these. As an alternative I'd like to create the following user story:
I'm a validator who doesn't have the capacity to coordinate participating in the next hub upgrade testnet but I want to understand how cosmovisor works so I can evaluate whether I will configure my infrastructure to use it.
I go to github.com/cosmos/cosmovisor-demo and read the README.md
I learn that I should be able to run the following commands:
