# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
If you **docker run** a container in detached mode (**-d**), you can reattach to
|
2014-05-27 13:56:11 -04:00
|
|
|
the detached container with **docker attach** using the container's ID or name.
|
2014-04-16 14:07:55 -04:00
|
|
|
|
2014-08-14 08:20:38 -04:00
|
|
|
You can detach from the container again (and leave it running) with `CTRL-p
|
2014-05-27 13:56:11 -04:00
|
|
|
CTRL-q` (for a quiet exit), or `CTRL-c` which will send a SIGKILL to the
|
|
|
|
|
container, or `CTRL-\` to get a stacktrace of the Docker client when it quits.
|
2014-04-17 11:36:58 -04:00
|
|
|
When you detach from a container the exit code will be returned to
|
2014-04-16 14:07:55 -04:00
|
|
|
the client.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2014-12-05 19:50:56 -05:00
|
|
|
It is forbidden to redirect the standard input of a docker attach command while
|
|
|
|
|
attaching to a tty-enabled container (i.e.: launched with -t`).

## Attaching to a container
|
2014-04-16 14:07:55 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this example the top command is run inside a container, from an image called
|
|
|
|
|
fedora, in detached mode. The ID from the container is passed into the **docker
|
|
|
|
|
attach** command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# ID=$(sudo docker run -d fedora /usr/bin/top -b)
|
|
|
|
|
# sudo docker attach $ID
