+## System Re-Configuration
+
+If recent development changes include modifications to files affecting
+the system installation process (e.g., changes to
+`CONFIGURE_SUBMITTY.py`, `install_system.sh`, `Vagrantfile`), you will
+need to either re-provision or re-build your VM from scratch to test
+these changes.
+
+* To re-run the initial configuration step of Submitty, use this command:
+
+  ```
+  sudo python3 /usr/local/submitty/GIT_CHECKOUT/Submitty/.setup/CONFIGURE_SUBMITTY.py
+  ```
+
+* To update existing databases:
+
+  ```
+  sudo python3 /usr/local/submitty/GIT_CHECKOUT/Submitty/.setup/update_database.py
+  ```
+

+
+## Re-Creating All Sample Course Data
+* If you've changed the script to create a new course
+  (`create_course.sh`), or the schema for the master database
+  (`submitty_db.sql`), or the schema for the course databases
+  (`course_tables.sql`), or you changed student/gradeable data
+  we need to delete all courses and recreate
+  the course databases, users, and sample submission uploads.
+
+  _NOTE: Make sure you are not be connected to any DBs (e.g., through
+  pgAdmin) or else running the below scripts could put things into a
+  broken state._
+
+  Run this command:
+
+  ```
+  sudo bash /usr/local/submitty/GIT_CHECKOUT/Submitty/.setup/bin/recreate_sample_courses.sh
+  ```
+
+  You can append the `--no_submissions` flag to the above command to
+  skip creation of any sample submission data in the sample courses.
+  This will accelerate the completion of this command, but you will be
+  missing the hundreds of sample student submissions present in the
+  full installation.
+
+
+  NOTE: This command will also have to be run twice a year on July 1st and January 1st when the test semester will change from fall to spring or vice versa.

+## Complete System Re-Installation
+
+* To re-provision your VM, exit the VM, and from a terminal your host
+   machine within the Submitty GIT repository type:
+
+   ```
+   vagrant reload --provision
+   ```
+
+   Or if the VM is not already running:
+
+   ```
+   vagrant up --provision
+   ```
+
+   This is will be faster than doing a full `destroy`/`up`, however
+   depending on the changes you've done to the VM, could leave it
+   potentially unstable.
+
+* Alternatively, re-build your VM from scratch:
+
+  ```
+  vagrant destroy
+  vagrant up
+  ```
+
+  _NOTE: This process will take a bit of time (45 minutes or more),
+  and requires an internet connection.  It will delete any assignments
+  you've uploaded to your VM installation.  And it will erase any
+  files you have created/edited within your VM that are not part of
+  the shared directory of the Submitty working repository.  It will
+  also destroy the databases, and any grading configuration or grading
+  work that has been done._
