Adding a data volume
You can add a data volume to a container using the
-v
flag with the
docker run
command. You can use the
-v
multiple times in a single
docker run
to mount multiple data volumes. Let's mount a single volume now in our web application container.
$ sudo docker run -P --name web -v ~/Workspace:/workspace ubuntu
You can then use the
--volumes-from
flag to mount the
/dbdata
volume in another container.
$ sudo docker run -it
--
volumes
-
from
workspace -v ~/Workspace ubuntu /bin/bash
