Volumes
Manage Docker volumes — create, inspect, and prune persistent storage used by your containers.
Use this page to list, create, inspect, and prune volumes. When you need to browse volume contents, jump to Files.
The volume list
The volume list shows the name, driver, mountpoint, size, and created time. Sort and filter to find the volume you want.
Create a volume
Pick a name and driver
Choose the volume name, then pick the driver you want. Local is the default, and plugin drivers appear when they are installed.
Driver options (optional)
Add any driver-specific options, such as NFS mount settings for the local driver.
Labels (optional)
Add labels when you want to group or query the volume later.
Browse volume files
Use Files to browse a volume's contents, preview files, edit text files, upload files, download files, and handle multi-select actions.
Inspect a volume
Open Inspect to review the volume JSON, including the mountpoint, driver options, labels, scope, and the list of containers currently using the volume.
Prune unused volumes
Prune removes every volume that is not currently attached to a container.
Prune removes all unused volumes, including named volumes you might want to keep. Use Delete instead when you want to be explicit.
