Starting Kibana - "No such container: monitoring-x.x.x.x"

Question

I'm working through the BlueData docs to enable Kibana.

To start Kibana:

1. Login to the Controller.
2. Execute the command docker exec -it monitoring-<controller_ip> bash, where <controller_ip> is the IP address of the Controller.
3. ...

I've ssh'd into my BlueData controller and run the docker exec ... command, however, I get the following error:

Error response from daemon: No such container: monitoring-10.1.0.26

Any idea what is wrong here?

NOTE: My BlueData version is bluedata-epic-entdoc-minimal-release-3.7-2207

First, check what containers are running:

$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                          ...    NAMES
60287e139b54        epic/webhdfs:1.0               ...    epic-webhdfs-10.1.0.26
90f73bb7a37e        epic/monitoring:1.4            ...    epic-monitoring-10.1.0.26
a55758993978        epic/nagios:1.5                ...    epic-nagios-10.1.0.26
309d9084df5a        epic/apache-hdfs-centos:2.7.2  ...    epic-apache-hdfs-centos

You can now see the correct command:

$ docker exec -it epic-monitoring-10.1.0.26 bash

The documentation appears to be missing the epic- suffix, i.e.

Instead of ...

$ docker exec -it monitoring-<controller_ip> bash

It looks like it should be ...

$ docker exec -it epic-monitoring-<controller_ip> bash
