How can I Duplicate the volume data

2 years ago

I was trying to sync the environment variable to Doppler service.

While it didn't imported all the environment variables to Doppler, and instead it messed up some variables in railway.

Luckly, it was just a database Docker image, and the data is still safe.
it was the production database 🙈

How can I duplicate the volume data, so that I can create a new service and attach the duplicated volume to the new service.
