Migrate Hermes to a New Machine with Docker and GBrain MCP
This article explains how to move Hermes to a new machine while keeping the deployment simple and stable. The two machines are assumed to already be reachable over the network, so the only connectivity checks we need are basic ping, SSH, and container-level verification.
The main goals are:
keep the Hermes data intact, copy the Docker project to the new machine, update the GBrain MCP endpoint, remove any Docker network settings that are no longer needed, verify that Hermes can still reach GBrain after the migration.
