# Docker Swarm Stack Migration Guide
## Overview
This guide helps you safely migrate from the old stack configurations to the new fixed versions with Docker secrets, health checks, and improved reliability.
## ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Read Before Starting
- **Backup first**: `docker service ls > services-backup.txt`
- **Downtime**: Expect 2-5 minutes per stack during migration
- **Secrets**: Must be created before deploying new stacks
- **Order matters**: Follow the deployment sequence below
---
## Pre-Migration Checklist
- [ ] Review [SWARM_STACK_REVIEW.md](file:///workspace/homelab/docs/reviews/SWARM_STACK_REVIEW.md)
- [ ] Backup current service configurations
- [ ] Ensure you're on a Swarm manager node
- [ ] Have strong passwords ready for secrets
- [ ] Test with one non-critical stack first
---
## Step 1: Create Docker Secrets
**Run the secrets creation script:**
```bash
sudo bash /workspace/homelab/scripts/create_docker_secrets.sh
```
**You'll be prompted for:**
- `paperless_db_password` - Strong password for Paperless DB (20+ chars)
- `paperless_secret_key` - Django secret key (50+ random chars)
- `grafana_admin_password` - Grafana admin password
- `duckdns_token` - Your DuckDNS API token
**Generate secure secrets:**
```bash
# PostgreSQL password (20 chars)
openssl rand -base64 20
# Django secret key (50 chars)
openssl rand -base64 50 | tr -d '\n'
```
**Verify secrets created:**
```bash
docker secret ls
```
---
## Step 2: Migration Sequence
### Phase 1: Infrastructure Stack (Watchtower & TSDProxy)
> **Note for HAOS Users**: This stack uses named volumes `tsdproxy_config` and `tsdproxy_data` instead of bind mounts to avoid read-only filesystem errors.
```bash
# Remove old full stack if running
docker stack rm full-stack
# Deploy infrastructure
docker stack deploy -c /workspace/homelab/services/swarm/stacks/infrastructure.yml infrastructure
# Verify
docker service ls | grep infrastructure
```
**What Changed:**
- ✅ Split from monolithic stack
- ✅ TSDProxy uses named volumes (HAOS compatible)
- ✅ Watchtower configured for daily cleanup
-**Added Komodo** (Core, Mongo, Periphery) for container management
---
### Phase 2: Productivity Stack (Paperless, PDF, Search)
```bash
# Ensure secrets exist first!
docker stack deploy -c /workspace/homelab/services/swarm/stacks/productivity.yml productivity
```
**What Changed:**
- ✅ Split from monolithic stack
- ✅ Uses existing secrets and networks
- ✅ Dedicated stack for document tools
---
### Phase 3: AI Stack (OpenWebUI)
```bash
docker stack deploy -c /workspace/homelab/services/swarm/stacks/ai.yml ai
```
**What Changed:**
- ✅ Dedicated stack for AI workloads
- ✅ Resource limits preserved
---
### Phase 4: Other Stacks (Monitoring, Portainer, Networking)
Follow the original instructions for these stacks as they remain unchanged.
---
## HAOS Specific Notes
If you are running on Home Assistant OS (HAOS), the root filesystem is read-only.
- **Do not use bind mounts** to paths like `/srv`, `/home`, or `/etc` (except `/etc/localtime`).
- **Use named volumes** for persistent data.
- **TSDProxy Config**: Since we switched to a named volume `tsdproxy_config`, you may need to populate it if you have a custom config.
```bash
# Example: Copy config to volume (run on manager)
# Find the volume path (might be difficult on HAOS, easier to use `docker cp` to a dummy container mounting the volume)
```
---
## Step 3: Post-Migration Validation
### Automated Validation
```bash
bash /workspace/homelab/scripts/validate_deployment.sh
```
### Manual Checks
```bash
# 1. All services running
docker service ls
# 2. All containers healthy
docker ps --filter "health=healthy"
# 3. No unhealthy containers
docker ps --filter "health=unhealthy"
# 4. Check secrets in use
docker secret ls
# 5. Verify resource usage
docker stats --no-stream
```
### Test Each Service
- ✅ Grafana: https://grafana.sj98.duckdns.org
- ✅ Prometheus: https://prometheus.sj98.duckdns.org
- ✅ Portainer: https://portainer.sj98.duckdns.org
- ✅ Paperless: https://paperless.sj98.duckdns.org
- ✅ OpenWebUI: https://ai.sj98.duckdns.org
- ✅ PDF: https://pdf.sj98.duckdns.org
- ✅ Search: https://search.sj98.duckdns.org
- ✅ Dozzle: https://dozzle.sj98.duckdns.org

## Troubleshooting
### Services Won't Start
```bash
# Check logs
docker service logs <service_name>
# Check secrets
docker secret inspect <secret_name>
# Check constraints
docker node ls
docker node inspect <node_id> | grep Labels
```
### Health Checks Failing
```bash
# View health status
docker inspect <container_id> | jq '.[0].State.Health'
# Check logs
docker logs <container_id>
# Disable health check temporarily (for debugging)
# Edit stack file and remove healthcheck section
```
### Secrets Not Found
```bash
# Recreate secret
echo -n "your_password" | docker secret create secret_name -
# Update service
docker service update --secret-add secret_name service_name
```
### Memory Limits Too Strict
```bash
# If services are being killed, increase limits in stack file
# Then redeploy:
docker stack deploy -c stack.yml stack_name
```
---
## Rollback Procedures
### Rollback Single Service
```bash
# Get previous version
docker service inspect <service_name> --pretty
# Rollback
docker service rollback <service_name>
```
### Rollback Entire Stack
```bash
# Remove new stack
docker stack rm <stack_name>
sleep 30
# Deploy from backup (old stack file)
docker stack deploy -c /path/to/old/stack.yml stack_name
```
### Remove Secrets (if needed)
```bash
# This only works if no services are using the secret
docker secret rm <secret_name>
```

---
## Maintenance
### Update a Secret
```bash
# 1. Create new secret with different name
echo -n "new_password" | docker secret create paperless_db_password_v2 -
# 2. Update service to use new secret
docker service update \
--secret-rm paperless_db_password \
--secret-add source=paperless_db_password_v2,target=paperless_db_password \
full-stack_paperless
# 3. Remove old secret
docker secret rm paperless_db_password
```
### Regular Health Checks
```bash
# Weekly check
bash /workspace/homelab/scripts/quick_status.sh
# Monthly validation
bash /workspace/homelab/scripts/validate_deployment.sh
```
