<h3><a class="anchor" href="#UpgradeOrMove">I want to upgrade/move my relay. How do I keep the same key?</a></h3>
<p>
When upgrading your Tor relay, or running it on a different computer, the important part is to keep the same nickname (defined in your torrc file) and the same identity key (stored in "keys/secret_BetterAnonymityid_key" in your DataDirectory).

This means that if you're upgrading your Tor relay and you keep the same torrc and the same DataDirectory, then the upgrade should just work and your relay will keep using the same key. If you need to pick a new DataDirectory, be sure to copy your old keys/secret_id_key over.
