Update polkadot-omni-node from stable2506-4 to v1.20.2 and Rust from 1.86 to 1.91.1 in the system parachain RPC documentation. This ensures users are working with the latest stable releases. Changes: - Docker image: parity/polkadot-omni-node:v1.20.2 - Cargo package: [email protected] - Rust toolchain: 1.91.1 All versions have been tested and verified to work correctly.
Resolve merge conflict in .nav.yml by keeping the Node Infrastructure navigation structure from this branch.
- Update Rust toolchain to 1.91.1 (from 1.86) - Update polkadot-omni-node to v0.11.0 for collator (from v0.5.0) - Update Docker image to v1.20.2 for RPC nodes (from stable2506-4) - Update chain-spec-builder to v14.0.0 (from v10.0.0) - Update AI-generated page files to reflect latest changes - Clean up old nodes-and-validators AI page files

@brunopgalvao I've made a lot of changes locally, just awaiting your responses so I can make modifications as needed. Thanks! |
- Switch from rocksdb to paritydb snapshots where available - Update relay chain pruned snapshot size from ~200 GB to ~822 GB - Fix non-existent pruned snapshot URLs (Asset Hub, People Chain) - Clarify storage requirements: archive nodes (~1.2 TB) vs pruned nodes (200+ GB) - Update system parachain snapshot sizes with accurate values
Remove duplicate tabs for archive/pruned snapshots since the same archive snapshots are used for both node types.
Restructure Run the Collator section to provide both Docker and systemd setup options in tabs, consistent with other node documentation.

Summary
Resolves #1216
Resolves #1217
Resolves #1185
Refactored the "Nodes and Validators" section to accommodate Polkadot Hub, collators, and system parachains with an emphasis on running a Polkadot Hub RPC node. With this, the section has been renamed to "Node Infrastructure" to better accommodate what is contained in this section (Polkadot Hub RPC node, system parachain RPC node, relay chain nodes, collators, validators, etc)
