  • Start the container docker start <container-id>
  • Set the containers to run in daemon mode docker exec -it -d <container-id> bash or docker exec -d <container-id> bash
  • Enter the running container docker exec -it <container-id> bash
  • Exit the interactive mode by typing exit
  • Type docker ps -a, the container will still be running, to stop it use docker stop <container-id>

Example to quit interactive mode and keep the container alive:
