Volumes mount multiple directory (alien.top)

Hi all,

I want to ask about docker volumes, is it possible to mount multiple directories in one volume?

Example:

docker run ..... -v nginx-data:/usr/share/nginx -v nginx-data:/etc/nginx nginx

It works, but all the files will be mixed together. This isn't really a problem, since if the container wants to access file_a in volume1, and file_b in volume2, then it will be able to do so no problem. The problem is when you have two different files named file_a in the two different mount points in the container. In that case, one file will get overwritten by the other.

Just use separate volumes.
