I would like to persist some configuration data from a container and am following the tutorial on data volumes.
I'm successfully running the app with:
docker run -it --privileged -v /app/config -p 8083:8083 myapp-ubuntu:2.2.2
Where -v /app/config
is the directory inside the container that contains the config that should survive a container restart.
Also the result of running the container creates a volume in /var/lib/docker/volumes
.
# ls /var/lib/docker/volumes
5e60d70dc15bcc53aa13cfd84507b5758842c7743d43da2bfa2fc121b2f32479
However, if I kill the container and rerun it no data is persisted and a new volume is created in /var/lib/docker/volumes
:
# ls /var/lib/docker/volumes
5e60d70dc15bcc53aa13cfd84507b5758842c7743d43da2bfa2fc121b2f32479 (FIRST RUN)
82de3aa910bc38157a6dc20a516b770bd0264860ae83093d471212f69960d02a (SECOND RUN)
I would expect that these would be the steps for persisting, am I missing something here?
