This process will create a docker volume for the unprivileged user's home directory, which stores the DayZ server files.
This volume can get quite large. It will require at least 2G of disk space for the default install. Much more with mods.
Some map mods are as large as 10G. Make sure you have that much disk space in the location where docker stores its
volumes, usually `/var/lib/docker/volumes`.
## Configure and Build
Ensure [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/) and [Docker compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)

When the server exits cleanly, i.e. exit code 0, the container also stops. Otherwise, a crash is presumed, and the server will be restarted.
NOTE: As DayZ Experimental 1.19, the server is known to not exit upon SIGINT when mods are installed. This makes force stopping the server
required. This is not a clean exit, and will cause the server to restart. Manually take the server [down](#down) to stop the container.
