backing up a volume

[andy5995]

I'm pretty new to docker in general. I've downloaded the release (also built the source on Debian 10, no problem) At this point I was wondering if I could use docker-backup to just backup a volume? The volume I'm using I created with docker volume create my-vol

Or is there some other alternative method I should be considering?

docker-backup is usually meant for backing up entire containers with all the attached volumes belonging to them. If you just want to backup a single volume, docker-backup doesn't expose that functionality yet, I'm afraid. I'll think about adding it!

all right, thanks for explaining. :)
