When you stop a container, it's not removed, but the status is changed to stopped and the process inside the container is stopped. When you ran the docker ps command in the previous module, the default output only shows running containers. When you pass the --all or -a for short, you see all containers on your machine, irrespective of their start or stop status.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```console\n$ docker ps -a\nCONTAINER ID   IMAGE                   COMMAND                  CREATED              STATUS                          PORTS                                         NAMES\n3e4830e7f013   docker-rust-image-dhi   \"/server\"                About a minute ago   Exited (0) 28 seconds ago                                                     youthful_lamport\n60009b7eaf40   docker-rust-image-dhi   \"/server\"                2 minutes ago        Exited (0) About a minute ago                                                 sharp_noyce\n152e1d7d9eea   docker-rust-image-dhi   \"/server .\"              4 minutes ago        Exited (0) 2 minutes ago                                                      magical_bhabha\n```\n\nYou should now see several containers listed. These are containers that you started and stopped but you haven't removed.\n\nRestart the container that you just stopped. Locate the name of the container you just stopped and replace the name of the container in following restart command.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```console\n$ docker restart youthful_lamport\n```\n\nNow list all the containers again using the docker ps --all command. …\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
