Use Docker to Backup Servers

• https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/images/
• CUPS Server
• Rocket.Chat Server (Internal RocketChat Server For House Communications #3)
• Media Server
• Unifi Controller
• VPN Server (VPN For Remote Debugging #4)

Might be nice to set up the images with virtual volumes. This would allow access to the data inside the images, which could be backed up separately. A guide on this subject: https://dev.to/jibinliu/how-to-persist-data-in-docker-container-2m72.

Update:
Created a docker compose server stack based loosely on Cloyne's salt stack. The idea is that the configurations of the servers could be stored in a centralized location (e.g. the network managers laptop and backed up to github). The network manager can then run the deploy script, which copies the appropriate docker-compose.yml and runs docker-compose, to sync the servers with the configuration.

Todo:

• Write a documentation page for the server stack (moving to separate issue)
• Integrate the CUPS print server into the stack for toadserver
• Work on a system for backing up containers
• Make an image which opens a persistent ssh tunnel for use with hosting (Document Hosting using Reverse Proxy and SSH Tunnel #20 )
• Configure containers to relaunch on crash
