 # Lotus changelog
 
+# 1.18.1 / 2022-11-28
+
+This is a small OPTIONAL patch release for the mandatory v1.18.0 release that supports the Filecoin nv17 Shark Upgrade. 
+We highly recommend you to read the full [v1.18.0 release note](https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus/releases/tag/v1.18.0) if you haven't already.
+
+Note to SPs:
+If you are running into issue with updating your miner node from an earlier release and is failing to restart your miner, check your `journalctl` and see if you noticed the following error:
+```
+New sector storage: <%d>
+Nov 19 15:03:43 g0lotus01 lotus-miner[<id>]: ERROR: creating node: starting node: could not build arguments for function "reflect".makeFuncStub (/usr/local/go/src/reflect/asm_amd64.s:28): failed to build *paths.Local: received non-nil error from function "reflect".makeFuncStub (/usr/local/go/src/reflect/asm_amd64.s:28): opening path /media/data1/lotusstorage: path with ID <%d> already opened: '<path>'
+```
+If so, this check is introduced via [#9032](https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus/pull/9032), precisely this [line](https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus/blame/master/storage/paths/local.go#L164-L166
+). It's added to prevents double-attaching paths given it's now possible to manipulate paths at runtime. Verify storage.json configs if you encounter this error or remove the undesired depulicated path as you see fit accordingly.
