Description
@PoloKltz mentions that it is difficult to tell how `influx setup` and `influxd upgrade` interact. In fact they are mutually exclusive (a new 2.x database should be created via `influx setup`, and an existing 1.x install should be upgraded with `influxd upgrade`)
Perhaps a note on https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2.1/reference/cli/influxd/upgrade/ explicitly mentioning that https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2.1/reference/cli/influx/setup/ is unnecessary would be enough.
