Hi, there,

just wondering the ‘volumes’ in docker\_container module, Does the first directory of the ‘volumes’ locate in local server which ansible is running? or it’s the directory from the docker engine is running?

in other world, Does ansible transfer the volume directory to the remote node the docker engine is running?

Thanks  
Vincent
