Container Stop/Restart procedure

The following section describes commands used to Start/Stop a Docker container.

Stop a running container
```
docker stop <container_name/id> 
```
Container name/id can be obtained using docker ps command.

To verify if the container has stopped run docker ps -a command. The status of the stopped container would display as Exited.
```
docker ps -a
```
Start a Docker container in a stopped state
```
docker start <container_name/id> 
```
Connect:Direct service automatically starts inside the container.

To destroy a stopped container permanently, all configuration data and information such as statistics and TCQ not mapped to a Storage Volume are lost and cannot be recovered. Use the following command to remove a container:
```
docker rm <container_name/id>
```
