How to fully migrate a Docker container?
To completely migrate a Docker container, you need to follow these steps: 1. Export the container: Use the `docker export` command to export the container’s filesystem as a tar file. For example: `docker export -o container.tar container_id`. 2. Copy the tar file: Copy the exported tar file to the target host. 3. Import the container: Use the `docker import` command on the target host to import the tar file as a new container image. For example: `docker import container.tar new_image_name`. 4. Create the container: Create a new container using the new image. For example: `docker create -t new_image_name`. 5. Run the container: Start the container using the `docker start` command. For example: `docker start container_id`. Please note that there may be some limitations and considerations when migrating a container: – Ensure that the target host has Docker engine installed and is the same or compatible version as the source host. – You may need to copy the container’s data volumes during the migration process. Use the `docker volume ls` command to view the data volumes used by the container and copy them to the target host. – The container’s network settings may need to be manually configured. You may need to create the same network configuration for the container on the target host. – If the container depends on other containers or external services, make sure they are configured on the target host. These steps can help you migrate a Docker container, but please adjust according to your specific situation during actual operation.
