Managing Apache2 Containers and Creating Volumes

Docker Part 2 Assignment - 1

Tasks To Be Performed:

1. Launch the Apache2 container created in previous module
2. Create a Docker volume on /var/www/html

Please submit the commands in order to complete this assignment.

Step 1: §

I will use the Apache2 container that we pushed to DockerHub in Case Study 1 – Containerization Using Docker – Part 1

Step 2: §

First, I create a volume: volume-sample

docker volume create volume-sample

Then, I verify its creation by running:

docker volume ls

Now, I run a container from the image that was pushed to DockerHub in Case Study 1 – Containerization Using Docker – Part 1, and I attach the newly created Docker volume named volume-sample.

I run a Docker container and attached the newly created volume to it

docker run -it --mount source="volume-sample",destination="/var/www/html" -p 8080:80 -d hectorproko/my_docker_image:my_apache_image2

I verify the container works by curling the page from localhost
