To restart all the online docker containers

docker restart $(docker ps -a -q -f status=healthy)

To start all the stopped containers:

docker start $(docker ps -a -q -f status=exited)

Other status options can be:

created, restarting, running, removing, paused, exited, dead.

  docker restart $(docker ps -a -q)

Use sudo if you don't have permission to perform this:

sudo docker restart $(sudo docker ps -a -q)

If you have docker-compose, all you need to do is:

docker-compose restart

And you get nice print out of the container's name along with its status of the restart (done/error)

Here is the official guide for installing: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

To start only stopped containers:

docker start $(docker ps -a -q -f status=exited)

(On windows it works in Powershell).
