Problem
When rebooting a testnet from a previous snapshot -- eg. in the case of cluster failure, or to test new code against many existing accounts -- the previous tower file may no longer be relevant. Currently the only way to allow the boot to proceed is to manually remove the
--require-towerarg from the multinode-demo scripts.Summary of Changes
Add a
--skip-require-toweroption to skip the--require-towerarg.This is foundational work to enable complete automation of rebooting testnet from previous snap.
Needs rebase on #19290
