About Volumes and Volume Validation
In addition to the database connectivity and integrity checks, My webMethods Server also performs volume validation when you start a new container from a My webMethods Server Docker image. Volume validation checks ensure the following:
*The specified paths to bind-mounted host directories exist
*The specified named volumes and host directories have appropriate read/write permissions
*Only volumes and directories that containers can share are prepopulated with data.
If any of the volume validation checks fails, the container exits. Logs are available on the console and in the default (unnamed) Docker volume. For more information about volume and data sharing between containers, see Managing Assets and Data in My webMethods Server Containers.
