A few nits but generally pretty good.

| This guide shows how to scale an existing single-node deployment to a multi-node cluster. It assumes you have a running single-node Restate server that is running the replicated loglet and replicated metadata server, which are enabled by default in Restate >= 1.4.0. |

I think all mentions of versions should be prefixed by v. (v1.4.0 vs. 1.4.0).

| To be able to use the replicated loglet, make sure the node includes the `log-server` role if you configure the roles explicitly. | ||
| The default configuration does not require adjustments to be cluster-ready. However, if you have explicitly specified which roles to run, you should make sure the configuration includes the `log-server` role. Similarly, make sure that you do not explicitly set the loglet provider type to `local`. While the local logelt is still supported, the default type is `replicated` starting from 1.4.0. Without these settings, the automatic loglet type migration will not take place. |

Btw. The migration will happen if default-provider is unset or the whole bifrost stanza is removed. I suggest we remove the requirement of specifying it and only mention it if they already have a configuration file.

I tried to capture the nuance better - let me know if the new version reads better!

maybe an actual example instead of placeholders?
