To me it is unclear what the author means when he writes "Please note that the Appwrite instance should be shut down". I am using docker. What exactly am I supposed to shut down to avoid "service "mariadb" is not running" or "docker: Error response from daemon: volumes-from specification cannot be an empty string."

TL;DR
The developer is confused about shutting down their Appwrite instance while using Docker to back up data. They need clarification on what to shut down to avoid errors.
