A data 2 volume is a specially-designated directory that by-passes storage driver 3 management. 4 5 Data volumes persist data independent of a container's life cycle. When you 6 delete a container, the Docker daemon does not delete any data volumes. You can 7 share volumes across multiple containers. Moreover, you can share data volumes 8 with other computing resources in your system. 9 10 To see help for a subcommand, use: 11 12 docker volume COMMAND --help 13 14 For full details on using docker volume visit Docker's online documentation.
