Is there any way to find a source of the docker container script? I have a setup where I can not find any docker-compose.yml file nor the bash script etc that would have run all the Docker containers currently running. I have a virtual machine that starts docker containers on the startup, but have no idea which file is actually run.
If the containers are running automatically on reboot and you have no cron/bash profile/rc.local or any other startup screen then that may mean that they are containers with --restart option set. You can change that by running below command
docker ps -q | xargs docker update --restart no
docker ps -q | xargs docker stop
Then restart the machine. The containers should not start. If they do then you have some script somewhere which is starting them
