+
+## Login
+
+* Log in as `dev` user on the deployments VM
+
+* All the deployments are placed in the `/srv` directory:
+
+  ```bash
+  cd /srv
+  ```
+
+## stage0 laconicd
+
+* Stack: <https://git.vdb.to/cerc-io/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/src/branch/main/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd>
+
+* Source repo: <https://git.vdb.to/cerc-io/laconicd>
+
+* Target dir: `/srv/laconicd/stage0-deployment`
+
+  * Cleanup an existing deployment if required:
+
+    ```bash
+    cd /srv/laconicd
+
+    # Stop the deployment
+    laconic-so deployment --dir stage0-deployment stop --delete-volumes
+
+    # Remove the deployment dir
+    sudo rm -rf stage0-deployment
+
+    # Remove the existing spec file
+    rm stage0-spec.yml
+    ```
+
+### Setup
+
+* Clone the stack repo:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so fetch-stack git.vdb.to/cerc-io/fixturenet-laconicd-stack --pull
+
+  # This should clone the fixturenet-laconicd-stack repo at `/home/dev/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack`
+  ```
+
+* Clone required repositories:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd setup-repositories --pull
+
+  # This should clone the laconicd repo at `/home/dev/cerc/laconicd`
+  ```
+
+* Build the container images:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd build-containers --force-rebuild
+
+  # This should create the "cerc/laconicd" Docker image
+  ```
+
+### Deployment
+
+* Create a spec file for the deployment:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd deploy init --output stage0-spec.yml
+  ```
+
+* Edit network in the spec file to map container ports to host ports:
+
+  ```bash
+  # stage0-spec.yml
+  network:
+    ports:
+      laconicd:
+        - '6060'
+        - '127.0.0.1:26657:26657'
+        - '26656'
+        - '127.0.0.1:9473:9473'
+        - '127.0.0.1:9090:9090'
+        - '127.0.0.1:1317:1317'
+  ```
+
+* Create a deployment from the spec file:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/fixturenet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/fixturenet-laconicd deploy create --spec-file stage0-spec.yml --deployment-dir stage0-deployment
+  ```
+
+* Update the configuration:
+
+  ```bash
+  cat <<EOF > stage0-deployment/config.env
+  # Set to true to enable adding participants functionality of the onboarding module
+  ONBOARDING_ENABLED=true
+  EOF
+  ```
+
+### Start
+
+* Start the deployment:
+
+  ```bash
+  laconic-so deployment --dir stage0-deployment start
+  ```
+
+* Check status:
+
+  ```bash
+  # List down the containers and check health status
+  docker ps -a | grep laconicd
+
+  # Follow logs for laconicd container, check that new blocks are getting created
+  laconic-so deployment --dir stage0-deployment logs laconicd -f
+  ```
+
+* Verify that endpoint is now publicly accessible:
+
+  * <https://laconicd.laconic.com> is pointed to the node's RPC endpoint
+
+  * Check status query:
+
+    ```bash
+    curl https://laconicd.laconic.com/status | jq
+
+    # Expected output:
+    # JSON with `node_info`, `sync_info` and `validator_info`
+    ```
