# DESCRIPTION
Run a process in a running container.
The command started using `docker exec` will only run while the container's primary
process (`PID 1`) is running, and will not be restarted if the container is restarted.
If the container is paused, then the `docker exec` command will wait until the
container is unpaused, and then run
