# Switching to a rolling node

Login to your node:

`docker ps`

Check your container ID

`docker exec -it <container_ID> bash`

Execute the following commands in the shell to remove old storage and context and recover disk space:

```
supervistorctl stop all
rm -rf ~/.tlnt-node/context ~/.tlnt-node/store ~/.tlnt-node/lock ~/.tlnt-node/.*upgrade* 
```

Make sure you stop your docker container. You can check the container ID with `docker ps`

`docker` stop `<container_ID>`

Pull the latest build from docker hub.

`docker pull t4l3nt/t4l3nt:v12-tlnt-rolling`

Start up the rolling node again using your old volume to maintain your existing keys etc.

Now when the node starts on first start it will download the latest rolling snapshot which saves a lot of time.  The rolling mode will also save a lot of disk space.

`docker run -it -p 8733:8733 -p 9733:9733 -v tlnt-data:/home/tlnt t4l3nt/t4l3nt:v12-tlnt-rolling`
