Description

Some Docker containers should be started manually.

Prepare a script to run them, then a systemd unit to call this script.

In a first time, this script could be as easy as (extracted from P91):

#!/bin/sh
docker start acquisitariat devcentral wolfphab etherpad otrs_demo

Then, we could make it more powerful with a configuration file somewhere listing the containers to run.

Per #nasqueron-ops message at 23:32:16.

Files created:

List of containers: /etc/containers.conf
Script wich gets names from the list: /usr/lib/systemd/system/get-containers-list
Script in order to {start,stop} containers: /usr/lib/systemd/system/docker_{start,stop}
Service to automate launching containers : /usr/lib/systemd/system/docker-containers.service

Ths service has been successfully enabled using

sudo systemctl enable docker-containers.service

Some improvement is needed, as D20 and T467#4446 are contradictory.
