+## Alternative
+### Clone relevant git repository
+Visit [the projects list](https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/#/admin/projects/) to find out which 
+repository you need.
+For NBI for example:
+```
+git clone "https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/NBI"
+```
+### Build container
+Once changes have been made and the component is ready to be redeployed, it must first be built.
+
+Run (from within the cloned repository)
+```
+docker build -t opensourcemano/nbi:dev -f Dockerfile.local .
+```
+replacing `opensourcemano/nbi:dev` with the name of the container to be rebuilt (as it appears in `docker ps`).
+
+The first build will take considerably longer than subsequent builds as packages will need to be fetched for the first time.
+### Redeploy container
+Once the container has been built, it can be redeployed:
+```
+docker service update osm_nbi --image opensourcemano/nbi:dev --force
+```
+Again, replacing the relevant sections with the component you are updating.
