# How To Stop A Node Using Docker

## Goal

Correctly stop a node using docker.

## Steps

Update your doker image:

```bash
$ sudo docker pull cyberway/cyberway:v2.1.0
```

Pull out the current docker-compose.yml file:

```bash
$ sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyberway/cyberway.launch/master/docker-compose.yml --output /var/lib/cyberway/docker-compose.yml
```

Tell docker-compose to update containers following the directions given in docker-compose.yml:

```bash
$ cd /var/lib/cyberway
$ sudo docker-compose up -t 120 –d
```
