For a description see: [Move from standalone container to separate web and data containers](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-move-from-standalone-container-to-separate-web-and-data-containers/29413).

For a normal rebuild/upgrade It’s pretty much the same as a single container install. Rather than

```
./launcher rebuild app

```

you do

```
./launcher bootstrap web_only && ./launcher destroy web_only && ./launcher start web_only

```
