System: ArchLinux 64bit, IP address: 10.32.1.18.

Build

sudo docker -p 8080:8080 --name myjenkins jenkins

Now you can access jenkins server in browser.

List running containers: sudo docker ps (so you can get the container's name for stoping and restarting later);

Stop jenkins server: sudo docker stop myjenkins;

Restart this server: sudo docker start myjenkins;

Backup and Restore

Backup image: sudo docker save -o jenkins-docker.tar jenkins;

Restore image: sudo docker load -i jenkins-docker.tar;

Backup container:

(optional) sudo docker stop jenkins
sudo docker export myjenkins > mybvt-system.tar
scp mybvt-system.tar chad@laptop:~/
ssh chad@laptop
cat mybvt-system.tar | sudo docker import - exampleimagelocal:new

But where is the imported container?
