**note:** This is early-stage stuff. You may encounter unexpected issues. Please be patient and don't hesitate to [reach out for help](#get-in-touch).
### Provision a fresh server
## Start With A Fresh Server
We recommend a dual-core server with at least 8GB RAM, 50GB disk, and a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 install.

Make sure your firewall has ports 9246 and 50001 open. 9246 is the port lbrycrd uses to communicate to other nodes. 50001 is the wallet server RPC port.
## Set Up Docker
### Install Docker & Docker Compose

sudo apt install -y apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common && \

You should see a response like `{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": ["0.46.1", "0.0"], "id": 1}`. If you do, congratulations! You've set up your own wallet server.
## Maintenance
### Stopping and Restarting
Use the usual docker-compose commands (`start`, `stop`, `pause`, etc) to control the servers. Run `docker-compose --help` to see the
options.
### Updating
To update to the latest wallet server release, run the following:
```
docker pull lbry/wallet-server:latest-release
docker-compose down
docker-compose up --detach
```
### Resyncing
From time to time, we'll release an update that requires erasing the wallet server database and recreating it from scratch. The process is
similar to an update, but causes the server to be down for much longer. Here's how to do it:
```
docker pull lbry/wallet-server:latest-release
docker-compose down
docker volume rm "$(whoami)_wallet_server"
WALLET_SERVER_SNAPSHOT_URL= docker-compose up --detach
```
