Hello dear node operators, Flow Mainnet will be sporking on **2022-06-15 08:00am PT** going from **Mainnet-17** to **Mainnet-18**. The Flow access nodes will be turned off during that time. Once the spork is complete, at around 11AM PT, a message will be posted on the [message forum](http://forum.flow.com/c/mainnet-sporks) and on Discord requesting you to start your nodes. Please make sure you have subscribed for updates on [http://forum.flow.com/c/mainnet-sporks](http://forum.flow.com/c/mainnet-sporks). Your keys will be carried from the current spork, so no need to resubmit the keys. **Flow Port Staking Downtime During Spork:** We’d also like to note that Flow Port will be inaccessible during the duration of this spork, and staking features will be disabled until 8:00 AM Pacific Time on 06/15/22. ACTIONS needed from your side on **2022-06-15** : - Perform [Step 1](https://docs.onflow.org/node-operation/spork/#step-1---cleaning-up-previous-spork-state) and then [Step 2](https://docs.onflow.org/node-operation/spork/#step-2---start-your-node) when you see the announcement “Mainnet Spork Complete” on the forum or Discord. As always, feel free to reach out on discord for support. Thank you, Flow Team
