 You will probably want to make that an explicit volume so you can manage it and attach to another container for upgrades :
 
 ```
-docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 -v jenkin_home:/var/jenkins_home jenkins
+docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 -v jenkins_home:/var/jenkins_home jenkins
 ```
 
-this will automatically create a 'jenkin_home' volume on docker host, that will survive container stop/restart/deletion.

 Avoid using a bind mount from a folder on host into `/var/jenkins_home`, as this might result in file permission issue. If you _really_ need to bind mount jenkins_home, ensure that directory on host is accessible by the jenkins user in container (jenkins user - uid 1000) or use `-u some_other_user` parameter with `docker run`.
