Preparation
There are some things we need to do in preparation to install this service.

 Ensure your user has permissions to access the folder. 

 

 

 Environment 

 

 TZ 

 This is the current time zone formatted using the tz database. 

 For example: America/Vancouver

Updating
Backup and Re-Deploy the Stack 

 This service has been partially optimized for running in Docker.  This allows you to  re-deploy the stack through Portainer to download the latest updates.  

 During major updates, there may be new required settings within their configuration file.  This will require an additional process detailed within their documentation to add the missing settings.
