Hi,

I need run some docker image with .yml config. For that reason I did:

1. Launch Gluster FS
2. Launch Convoy Gluster

**Now before “Launch Service” I need upload .yml config to Convoy Gluster volume, how can I do that?**

I can connect to “glusterfs-server” and check volume info, but not found yet how create file that will be replicated.

```
[root@glusterfs_glusterfs-server_1 /]# gluster volume info

Volume Name: my_vol
Type: Replicate
Volume ID: 7f3390e9-98e5-4d97-b377-ad6495d5b321

Its important to note that one \*gluster volume" will contain many docker volumes. So, if you `docker run --volume-driver convoy-gluster -v vol1:/abc -v vol2:/xyz ...`, but vol1 and vol2 will be created on that gluster volume.

To answer your question, we don’t provide a way to interactively upload files to docker volumes. A script in your container (or in a sidekick of the container) would have to download the file when the container was started.

I need run service (few instances) of [api-umbrella container](http://api-umbrella.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-started.html#running-with-docker), that require config file for each container. All containers will have equal “api-umbrella.yml” file, what the right way for manage that task when work with Rancher?

Any advice or example of similar tasks?

Thanks!
