How to run "docker start/stop" - Start and Stop Docker Containers for BYFN (Build Your First Network)?

If you have your BYFN Docker containers deployed to the Docker Engine, you can use the "docker start/stop" command to manage them.

1. Look at the status of all deployed Docker containers:

$ docker ps -a 

IMAGE                               COMMAND             STATUS          NAMES

hyperledger/fabric-tools:latest     "/bin/bash"         Up 10 minutes   cli
hyperledger/fabric-peer:latest      "peer node start"   Exited (1)      peer0.org1.example.com
hyperledger/fabric-peer:latest      "peer node start"   Exited (1)      peer0.org2.example.com
hyperledger/fabric-peer:latest      "peer node start"   Exited (1)      peer1.org1.example.com
hyperledger/fabric-peer:latest      "peer node start"   Exited (1)      peer1.org2.example.com
hyperledger/fabric-orderer:latest   "orderer"           Exited (1)      orderer.example.com

2. Stop "cli" Docker container:

$ docker stop cli

$ docker ps -a | grep cli
hyperledger/fabric-tools:latest     "/bin/bash"         Exited (0)      cli

3. Start "cli" Docker container again:

$ docker start cli
cli

$ docker ps -a | grep cli
hyperledger/fabric-tools:latest     "/bin/bash"         Up 3 seconds    cli

4. Start "orderer.example.com" Docker container again:

$ docker start orderer.example.com
orderer.example.com

$ docker ps -a | grep orderer
hyperledger/fabric-orderer:latest   "orderer"           Exited (1)      orderer.example.com

"orderer.example.com" Docker container started and stopped with an error code of 1. See next tutorial on how to fix the issue.
