 ## Controling the daemon

 The `garage` binary has two purposes:
-  - it acts as a daemon when launched with `garage server ...`
+  - it acts as a daemon when launched with `garage server`
  - it acts as a control tool for the daemon when launched with any other command

-In this section, we will see how to use the `garage` binary as a control tool for the daemon we just started.
-You first need to get a shell having access to this binary. For instance, enter the Docker container with:
+Ensure an appropriate `garage` binary (the same version as your Docker image) is available in your path.
+If your configuration file is at `/etc/garage.toml`, the `garage` binary should work with no further change.
+
+You can test your `garage` CLI utility by running a simple command such as:

 ```bash
-sudo docker exec -ti garaged bash
+garage status
 ```

-You will now have a shell where the Garage binary is available as `/garage/garage`
-
-*You can also install the binary on your machine to remotely control the cluster.*
-
-## Talk to the daemon and create an alias
-
-`garage` requires 4 options to talk with the daemon:
+At this point, nodes are not yet talking to one another.
+Your output should therefore look like follows:

 ```
--ca-cert <ca-cert>            
--client-cert <client-cert>    
--client-key <client-key>      
-h, --rpc-host <rpc-host>

+563e1ac825ee3323…   Mercury   [fc00:1::1]:3901  NO ROLE ASSIGNED
 ```

-The 3 first ones are certificates and keys needed by TLS, the last one is simply the address of Garage's RPC endpoint.

-If you are invoking `garage` from a server node directly, you do not need to set `--rpc-host`
-as the default value `127.0.0.1:3901` will allow it to contact Garage correctly.
+## Connecting nodes together

-To avoid typing the 3 first options each time we want to run a command,
-you can use the following alias:
+When your Garage nodes first start, they will generate a local node identifier
+(based on a public/private key pair).
+
+To obtain the node identifier of a node, once it is generated,
+run `garage node-id`.
+This will print keys as follows:

 ```bash
-alias garagectl='/garage/garage \
-  --ca-cert /etc/garage/pki/garage-ca.crt \
-  --client-cert /etc/garage/pki/garage.crt \
-  --client-key /etc/garage/pki/garage.key'

+
+etc.
 ```

-You can now use all of the commands presented in the [quick start guide](../quick_start/index.md),
-simply replace occurences of `garage` by `garagectl`.
+You can then instruct nodes to connect to one another as follows:

-#### Test the alias
-

 ```

-You should get something like that as result:
+You don't nead to instruct all node to connect to all other nodes:
+nodes will discover one another transitively.
+
+Now if your run `garage status` on any node, you should have an output that looks as follows:

+A list of peer identifiers on which to contact other Garage peers of this cluster.
+These peer identifiers have the following syntax:

+In the case where `rpc_public_addr` is correctly specified in the
+configuration file, the full identifier of a node including IP and port can
+be obtained by running `garage node-id` and then included directly in the

+# Migrating from 0.3 to 0.4
+
+**Migrating from 0.3 to 0.4 is unsupported. This document is only intended to document the process internally for the Deuxfleurs cluster where we have to do it. Do not try it yourself, you will lose your data and we will not help you.**
+
+**Migrating from 0.2 to 0.4 will break everything for sure. Never try it.**
+
+The internal data format of Garage hasn't changed much between 0.3 and 0.4.
+The Sled database is still the same, and the data directory as well.
+
+The following has changed, all in the meta directory:
+
+- `node_id` in 0.3 contains the identifier of the current node. In 0.4, this file does nothing and should be deleted. It is replaced by `node_key` (the secret key) and `node_key.pub` (the associated public key). A node's identifier on the ring is its public key.
+
+- `peer_info` in 0.3 contains the list of peers saved automatically by Garage. The format has changed and it is now stored in `peer_list` (`peer_info` should be deleted).
+
+When migrating, all node identifiers will change. This also means that the affectation of data partitions on the ring will change, and lots of data will have to be rebalanced.
+
+- If your cluster has only 3 nodes, all nodes store everything, therefore nothing has to be rebalanced.
+
+- If your cluster has only 4 nodes, for any partition there will always be at least 2 nodes that stored data before that still store it after. Therefore the migration should in theory be transparent and Garage should continue to work during the rebalance.
+
+- If your cluster has 5 or more nodes, data will disappear during the migration. Do not migrate (fortunately we don't have this scenario at Deuxfleurs), or if you do, make Garage unavailable until things stabilize (disable web and api access).
+
+
+The migration steps are as follows:
+
+1. Prepare a new configuration file for 0.4. For each node, point to the same meta and data directories as Garage 0.3. Basically, the things that change are the following:
+
+  - No more `rpc_tls` section
+  - You have to generate a shared `rpc_secret` and put it in all config files
+  - `bootstrap_nodes` has a different syntax as it has to contain node keys. Leave it empty and use `garage node-id` and `garage node connect` instead (new features of 0.4)
+  - put the publicly accessible RPC address of your node in `rpc_public_addr` if possible (its optional but recommended)
+  - If you are using Consul, change the `consul_service_name` to NOT be the name advertised by Nomad. Now Garage is responsible for advertising its own service itself.
+
+2. Disable api and web access for some time, do `garage repair --all --yes tables` and `garage repair --all --yes blocks`, check the logs and check that all data seems to be synced correctly between nodes.
+
+3. Save somewhere the output of `garage status`. We will need this to remember how to reconfigure nodes in 0.4.
+
+4. Turn off Garage 0.3
+
+5. Backup metadata folders if you can (i.e. if you have space to do it somewhere). Backuping data folders could also be usefull but that's much harder to do. If your filesystem supports snapshots, this could be a good time to use them.
+
+6. Turn on Garage 0.4
+
+7. At this point, running `garage status` should indicate that all nodes of the previous cluster are "unavailable". The nodes have new identifiers that should appear in healthy nodes once they can talk to one another (use `garage node connect` if necessary`). They should have NO ROLE ASSIGNED at the moment.
+
+8. Prepare a script with several `garage node configure` commands that replace each of the v0.3 node ID with the corresponding v0.4 node ID, with the same zone/tag/capacity. For example if your node `drosera` had identifier `c24e` before and now has identifier `789a`, and it was configured with capacity `2` in zone `dc1`, put the following command in your script:
+
+```bash
+garage node configure 789a -z dc1 -c 2 -t drosera --replace c24e
+```
+
+9. Run your reconfiguration script. Check that the new output of `garage status` contains the correct node IDs with the correct values for capacity and zone. Old nodes should no longer be mentioned.
+
+10. If your cluster has 4 nodes or less, and you are feeling adventurous, you can reenable Web and API access now. Things will probably work.
+
+11. Garage might already be resyncing stuff. Issue a `garage repair --all --yes tables` and `garage repair --all --yes blocks` to force it to do so.
+
+12. Wait for resyncing activity to stop in the logs. Do steps 11 and 12 two or three times, until you see that when you issue the repair commands, nothing gets resynced any longer.
+
+13. Your upgraded cluster should be in a working state. Re-enable API and Web access and check that everything went well.
