# Updating Nodes

Update procedure for the tBTC v2 client depends on installation method

## Docker Installation

The following instructions assume your docker install followed [these](/tbtc-signer-nodes/tbtc-v2-node-setup/installation/docker-installation.md) installation instructions. 

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Docker Install" %}
To update a tBTC node:

Pull the new image

```bash
docker pull keepnetwork/keep-client:latest
```

Restart the tBTC service

```bash
sudo systemctl restart tbtcv2
```

To free system resources, run

```bash
sudo docker container prune
```

```bash
sudo docker image prune
```

Examine logs to ensure the node started correctly. Find Docker instance identification; it'll be a random combination of words, e.g. `stinky_brownie`:

```bash
sudo docker ps
```

Use specific identification and substitute accordingly; specify a path and file name for the log file:

```bash
sudo docker logs stinky_brownie >& /path/to/output/file
```

Display the log file 

```bash
cat /path/to/output/file
```

Look for the following and take note of the version:

Alternatively, verify your client updated by visiting your status page:

```
http://111.222.333.444:9601/metrics
```

Compare the displayed version number to the version number you are expecting, i.e.:

```
client_info{version="vX.X.X-XX"}
```

{% tab title="Binary Install" %}
This install method requires downloading the latest version of the binary. Follow the installation steps provided [here](/tbtc-signer-nodes/tbtc-v2-node-setup/installation/binary-installation.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.threshold.network/tbtc-signer-nodes/tbtc-v2-node-setup/updating-tbtc-v2-node.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
