[BUG] How to upgrade V1 -> V2 in Docker

[Twilek-de]

I am trying to upgrade a Version 1 to Version 2 in docker. I cannot run the migration utility as the container with the server immediately exits with "incompatible data format". Could you update the migration guide with information for docker installations? Thanks.

I helped myself by adding a "command: sleep 60000000" into the compose file to freeze the container before it exits. I then could exec /bin/bash into the container and do the migration. It worked well enough, but there should (and probably) is a better and no so clunky way.

These commands still works good:

In Unraid commands go into Post arguments so edit the container -> set it from basic GUI to advanced and then in Post Arguments paste "tail -f /dev/null" without quotation marks.
That way it wont instantly restart itself and you can open the console for the container and follow the guide:

what paths are used in unraid for the 3 dirs?
EDIT: nevermind, i see based on dirs i have that it's just /data and 1->2 migration
