vania-janet/multiturn-rag-retrieval-data huggingface dataset:
To use the couchmigrate script, first define the URL of the CouchDB/IBM Cloudant instance by setting an environment variable called COUCH_URL. Run the following command to define the URL for the IBM Cloudant instance:

export COUCH_URL=https://127.0.0.1:5984

The URL must start with https:// and can include authentication credentials. Run the following command to define the URL of the IBM Cloudant instance with authentication credentials:

export COUCH_URL="https://$ACCOUNT:$PASSWORD@$HOST.cloudant.com"

If you assume that you have a design document in JSON format, which is stored in a file, you can then run the migrate command.

In this example, db specifies the name of the database to change, and dd specifies the path to the design document file. Run the couchmigrate command:

couchmigrate --db mydb --dd /path/to/my/dd.json

The script coordinates the Move and switch procedure, waiting until the view is built before it returns. If the incoming design document is the same as the incumbent one, then the script returns almost immediately.

The source code for the script is available here: [couchmigrate](https://github.com/glynnbird/couchmigrate).





 The 'stale' parameter 

If an index is complete, but new records are added into the database, then the index is scheduled to be updated in the background. The state of the database is shown in the following diagram:

Getting started with Terraform on IBM Cloud 

Terraform on IBM Cloud enables predictable and consistent provisioning of IBM Cloud® platform, services, and VPC infrastructure resources so that you can rapidly build complex, multitier cloud environments, and adopt an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) approach to deploying environments.

An alternative to configuring IBM Cloud® with the standalone Terraform CLI is IBM Cloud Schematics. Schematics is an easy to use, managed Terraform as a service capability on IBM Cloud®, with a full featured UI along with CLI and API support. Schematics is integrated with the IBM Cloud Platform, with support for team usage, with locking and centralized state file management, IAM access controls, logging and monitoring. Free to use, it supports many additional features, including drift detection and configuration management with Red Hat Ansible. Get started now with [IBM Cloud Schematics](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/schematics?topic=schematics-getting-started).

Here you learn how to install the Terraform command-line and the IBM Cloud Provider plug-in for Terraform on a local machine, laptop or server. Then how to configure the provider plug-in to create, update, or delete IBM Cloud services with Terraform.

See [IBM Cloud Schematics](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/schematics?topic=schematics-getting-started) if you want to start working with Terraform immediately without installation of the CLI and provider.



 Step 1: Installing the Terraform CLI 

Use these steps to install the Terraform CLI.



1. Create a terraform folder on your local machine, and navigate to your terraform folder.

mkdir terraform && cd terraform
2. Download the [Terraform version](https://releases.hashicorp.com/terraform) that you want. The IBM Cloud Provider plug-in for Terraform currently supports Terraform stable version 1.x.x.
Getting started: IBM Cloud Schematics

* Optional Container Registry plugin (container-registry)





You can find instructions to download and install these tools for your operating environment in the [Getting started with tutorials](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/solution-tutorials?topic=solution-tutorials-tutorials) guide. To avoid the installation of these tools, this tutorial will use the [Cloud Shell](https://cloud.ibm.com/shell) from the IBM Cloud console.





 Step 1: Start a new IBM Cloud Shell 



1. From the IBM Cloud console in your browser click the button in the upper right corner to create a new [Cloud Shell](https://cloud.ibm.com/shell).







 Step 2: Create an IBM Cloud Code Engine project 

In this section, you will create a Code Engine project. A project is a grouping of Code Engine entities such as applications, jobs, and builds. Projects are used to manage resources and provide access to its entities.

Putting entities into a single project enables you to manage access control more easily. The entities within a project share the same private network, which enables them to talk to each other securely. To understand what a project is, check the [documentation](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/codeengine?topic=codeengine-manage-project).



1. Navigate to [IBM Cloud Code Engine Overview](https://cloud.ibm.com/codeengine/overview) page.
2. On the left pane, click on Projects and then click Create.



* Select a location.
* Provide a project name.
* Select the resource group where you will create your project and also the cloud services required in the later steps. Resource groups are a way for you to organize your account resources into customizable groupings.
* Click on Create.
* Wait until the project status changes to Active.



3. Switch to the Cloud Shell session that you started earlier and use it in this tutorial when you are asked to run CLI commands.
4. Create a shell variable with the project name and resource group name

PROJECT_NAME=YourProjectName
This can take around two minutes. If there is an error in the deployment process you can use the command ibmcloud cf logs <Your-App-Name> --recent to troubleshoot.



When deployment completes you should see a message indicating that your app is running. View your app at the URL listed in the output of the push command. You can also issue the following command to view your apps status and see the URL.

ibmcloud cf apps

You can also go to the IBM Cloud [resource list](https://cloud.ibm.com/resources) to view your app.





 Step 5: Add a database 

Next, we'll add an IBM Cloudant NoSQL database to this app and set up the app so that it can run locally and on IBM Cloud.



1. In your browser, log in to IBM Cloud and go to the dashboard. Select Create resource.
2. Search for IBM Cloudant, and select the service.
3. For Available authentication methods, select Use both legacy credentials and IAM. You can leave the default settings for the other fields. Click Create to create the service.
4. In the navigation, go to Connections, then click Create connection. Select your app, and click Connect.
5. Using the default values, click Connect & restage app to connect the database to your app. Click Restage when prompted.

IBM Cloud will restart your app and provide the database credentials to your app using the VCAP_SERVICES environment variable. This environment variable is available to the app only when it is running on IBM Cloud.



Environment variables enable you to separate deployment settings from your source code. For example, instead of specifying a database password in your source code, you can store it in an environment variable that you reference in your source code.





 Step 6: Use the database 

We're now going to update your local code to point to this database. We'll store the credentials for the services in a properties file. This file will get used ONLY when the app is running locally. When running in IBM Cloud, the credentials will be read from the VCAP_SERVICES environment variable.

Getting started with Citrix DaaS for IBM Cloud 

Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops on IBM Cloud® is now Citrix DaaS for IBM Cloud®. If you are using bookmarks to access the documentation, you should update them to the new product name path.

Use Citrix DaaS for IBM Cloud® to create a dedicated Citrix DaaS service environment at any of our global data centers. You have the option of creating a Classic solution, VMware solution, or VPC solution.



 Before you begin 

Before you begin, review the following information.



* Want to learn more about Citrix DaaS and how it works? To learn more, see [About Citrix DaaS for IBM Cloud](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/citrix-daas?topic=citrix-daas-about-citrix-virtual-apps-and-desktops).
* Review the supported products and versions in the [Product compatibility guide](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/citrix-daas?topic=citrix-daas-product-compatibility-guide).



You must have either an active trial or paid subscription to Citrix Cloud. To learn more or to create an account, see [Citrix Cloud](https://onboarding.cloud.com/).

After you review this information, you are ready to get started. To begin, you need to complete the following prerequisites.



1. Sign up for an IBM Cloud account
2. Create required API keys
3. Verify Citrix and operating system entitlements
4. Set up network connectivity for logging on to IBM Cloud
5. (VMWare only) Enable VLAN spanning or VRF on your account
6. Set up user permissions in IAM







 Step 1. Sign up for an IBM Cloud account 

To order and use IBM Cloud services, you need to sign up for an IBM Cloud account. Billing information is associated with your IBM Cloud account and the cost of the physical and virtual infrastructure and the resulting licenses are charged to your account.
Before you can use the CLI, you must install the IBM Cloud CLI and the VPC CLI plug-in. For more information, see the [CLI prerequisites](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/vpc?topic=vpc-set-up-environmentcli-prerequisites-setup).



1. Log in to IBM Cloud®.

ibmcloud login --sso -a cloud.ibm.com

This command returns a URL and prompts for a passcode. Go to that URL in your browser and log in. If successful, you get a one-time passcode. Copy this passcode and paste it as a response on the prompt. After successful authentication, you are prompted to choose your account. If you have access to multiple accounts, select the account that you want to log in as. Respond to any remaining prompts to finish logging in.
2. Select the current generation of VPC.

ibmcloud is target --gen 2
3. Set the IBMCLOUD_IS_FEATURE_SNAPSHOT environment variable to true.

export IBMCLOUD_IS_FEATURE_SNAPSHOT=true



Before you start, gather the following information:



* A unique name for the snapshot.
* The ID of the source volume.
* The resource group ID. You can't change the resource group after the snapshot is created.
* Any tags that you want to attach to the snapshot.



Use the following CLI commands to collect the information that you need.



* ibmcloud is volumes - Lists all available volumes in the region that you selected. Locate the volume in the list, verify the status (available), the attachment type (boot or data), and resource group.
* ibmcloud is volume VOLUME_ID - Use this command with the volume ID from the output of the previous command to review the details of the volume. If the output shows that the volume is available, attached to an instance and not busy, you can create a snapshot.
