August 22, 201411 yr https://blog.docker.com/2014/08/announcing-docker-1-2-0/ BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! IT INCLUDES RESTART POLICIES!! restart policies We added a --restart flag to docker run to specify a restart policy for your container. container. Currently, there are three policies available: no – Do not restart the container if it dies. (default) on-failure – Restart the container if it exits with a non-zero exit code. Can also accept an optional maximum restart count (e.g. on-failure:5). always – Always restart the container no matter what exit code is returned. This deprecates the --restart flag on the Docker daemon. Check out the link for more details, but you can be sure we are working to include this with unRAID!
August 22, 201411 yr (This will sound mean, however please understand my enthusiasm and excitement regarding an update) So how long will this integration delay the release of Beta 7?... Sorry, as exciting as it is it was the first thing that came to mind here unfortunately..
August 22, 201411 yr Author We will probably release beta 7 without this update unless it's deemed fairly simple / non-disruptive to implement.
August 22, 201411 yr Add that to next beta instead of B7, if you do add this to B7, will this make a delays of B7 even more couples of weeks? My point of view, release B7 now, and update docker on B8 //Peter
August 22, 201411 yr If it's a trivial change to get it into b7 (IE: not time consuming), then I'd say roll with it in b7, otherwise wait till b8 as well. These kinds of things aren't usually trivial tho, so not expecting it in the next beta release really.
August 22, 201411 yr Author Let's not get too hasty. Sometimes these updates are very simple to apply and don't take much time at all. It all comes down to how many code changes there were to the existing code. If the existing code remained stable and the just added these new capabilities, it might be fairly easy to implement. I need to review this with the team later today.
August 22, 201411 yr Thanks for the feedback and clarification... There are a lot of us VERY anxious to get to kick the tyres (as someone else said) of B7. After that I will start my searching, and constant refreshing in regards to Beta 8...LOL
August 23, 201411 yr This came also on my mind. First thing: omg, this will delay b7 even further, ... My point is: release b7 now, with or without the new docker
October 17, 201411 yr So, how exactly do we add these restart policies to an existing Docker? If I run it from command line, it works just fine, but I lose the ability to manage it via DockerMan.
