What is Docker Volume | How to create Volumes | What is Bind Mount | Docker Storage

11:26 Bind mount
More about Raghav - automationstep...
Today we will learn:
1. What are Volumes
2. How to create / list / delete volumes
3. How to attach volume to a container
4. How to share volume among containers
5. What are bind mounts
Volumes are the preferred mechanism for persisting data generated by and used by Docker containers
: docker volume //get information
: docker volume create
: docker volume ls
: docker volume inspect
: docker volume rm
: docker volume prune
Instead of deleting containers one by one of docker ps -a , we can use docker container prune. and for docker ps (running containers) we can use docker rm $(ps -aq)
Use of Volumes
===========
Decoupling container from storage
Share volume (storage/data) among different containers
Attach volume to container
On deleting container volume does not delete
Commands
docker run --name MyJenkins1 -v myvol1:/var/jenkins_home -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 jenkins
docker run --name MyJenkins2 -v myvol1:/var/jenkins_home -p 9090:8080 -p 60000:50000 jenkins
docker run --name MyJenkins3 -v /Users/raghav/Desktop/Jenkins_Home:/var/jenkins_home -p 9191:8080 -p 40000:50000 jenkins

NOTES
By default all files created inside a container are stored on a writable container layer
The data doesn’t persist when that container is no longer running
A container’s writable layer is tightly coupled to the host machine where the container is running. You can’t easily move the data somewhere else.
Docker has two options for containers to store files in the host machine
so that the files are persisted even after the container stops
VOLUMES and BIND MOUNTS
Volumes are stored in a part of the host filesystem which is managed by Docker
Non-Docker processes should not modify this part of the filesystem
Bind mounts may be stored anywhere on the host system
Non-Docker processes on the Docker host or a Docker container can modify them at any time
In Bind Mounts, the file or directory is referenced by its full path on the host machine.
Volumes are the best way to persist data in Docker
volumes are managed by Docker and are isolated from the core functionality of the host machine
A given volume can be mounted into multiple containers simultaneously.
When no running container is using a volume, the volume is still available to Docker and is not removed automatically. You can remove unused volumes using docker volume prune.
When you mount a volume, it may be named or anonymous.
Anonymous volumes are not given an explicit name when they are first mounted into a container
Volumes also support the use of volume drivers, which allow you to store your data on remote hosts or cloud providers, among other possibilities.

[@heshanwijeratne2155]

I am a student currently learning Docker and have struggled to find clear explanations about Docker volumes. Your video is very clear, your voice is easy to understand, and as a thank you, I am now following you.

[@guptasaurabh688]

This is very easy and good explanation Raghav. You represent things in simple way. I really appreciate. Instead of deleting containers one by one of docker ps -a , we can use docker container prune. and for docker ps (running containers) we can use docker rm $(docker ps -aq).

[@shantharamPK8160]

Very easy to understand tutorial.. 👌.
I guess the problem with using port 70000 is exceeds the max allowed port no of 65535, which is a networking stipulation

[@RaghavPal]

Thank you so much for explaining about volume mapping in containers with hands on. Helped me a lot to understand easily. Can you also explain how this volume mapping is handled at the time of autoscaling the containers?

[@RaghavPal]

Sure Nisha, will add more tutorials

[@ilyasjumadurdyew8074]

Man, your job is VERY VERY helpful. I'm developer with about 6+ years of real development. But tranding shit like CI/CD or Docker is too magical for someone who is reviewing all packets before installing, who is managing environment with static Ip addresses, who thinks before making update.

[@RaghavPal]

Automation Step by Step - Raghav Pal i really want to learn Docker and Jenkins. I purchased a course from Udemmy, but was really hard to understand. Your way was amazing, I really got it from the first time. Your Jenkins and Docker courses are Kinda old? Do you have somewhere courses. I hope you have a Udemmy course. Please let me know. Much appreciated Adam

[@Adam-gp3ij]

Automation Step by Step - Raghav Pal I think I can see your courses on Udemmy. But I think Jenkins is old and I am not even able to install it on my Mac. However, can I get a promotion code for Docker course. Thank you

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Adam, I will be creating Jenkins and Docker Udemy courses in some time.

[@hebronspiritualmessages9382]

Thanks Ragav for sharing video..
i have one doubt
when we say docker volume create .. where this volume will be created ?
is that volume avaiable in our local machine ..where this volume stored ?
Also is there any other types of volumes avaiable to make container persistant ..?
And how about Kubernetes volume works and where it is stored the volumes when we create volume using peristantvolumeclaim files
kindly explain
Thanks in adavnce..

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Jashva, I believe I discussed breifly on that and also volume and bind mounts. You can check more online and I will plan to add a separate session soon

[@manueljordan317]

As usual, an excellent tutorial - huge thanks for the video!!!
I though that through the creation of a volume through the `docker volume create volume_name` command - but using some option - would be possible define its path - but seems is not possible and docker always uses the '/var/lib/docker/volumes//_data' path
A cold beer to you friend!

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Manuel, thanks for watching

thank you , ı understant volumes easy with this video

[@RaghavPal]

Most welcome

[@ravankolgowrishankar9952]

Hi Raghav,
I followed all your Git , Jenkins, Docker can you create an application or a small program upload to git integrate with jenkins and use docker for deployment on any server that would be more helpful and can add more sense to understand the complete flow from end to end

[@RaghavPal]

Hi Ravankol, I will do it in some time

[@melbienrigabitan9699]

Hi! That was absolutely simple yet interesting, thank you for making that vid I was able to understand volume more now. Out of question but, can you try making a vid using volume in docker-compose? Thank you!

[@RaghavPal]

Happy to know that Chen, I will try after some time.

[@cosmos4427]

Thanks for a very fast, clear and informative tutorial : )
Q: Can the volume be a cloud storage bucket from a cloud provider like Google, So that a newly created container can read from it?
If Yes y not make a video demonstrating using cloud volumes..
I subscribed after watching first few minutes of this video..

[@RaghavPal]

Yes you can Adithya, I will plan a session

[@carlellis9647]

The answer to that question is yes it can, which is why volumes are so convenient to use. They can be stored on the cloud and volumes can be shared by multiple containers. The Docker website has some good information on this. I'd suggest going to their site and reading up on Docker Volumes so you can get a good understanding of this.
