You will need to save the docker image as a tar file:

docker save -o <save image to path> <image name>

Then copy your image to a new system with regular file transfer tools such as cp or scp. After that you will have to load the image into docker:

docker load -i <path to image tar file>

PS: You may need to sudo all commands.

 

 

 

docker save -o testxp.tar 347084c24033  #save imge:347084c24033  to  file: testxp.tar
 
 
 docker load -i testxp.tar   #load file:testxp.tar to get image
 
 
 docker run 347084c24033  #run image to get container
 
 
docker rm -f b8b3e1503e6f  #remove container:b8b3e1503e6f 
 
 
 
docker rmi 347084c24033  #remove image:347084c24033 

docker run -d  -e NLOGDIR=/var/log/ -e WWNamespace=dev -e ZKServerAddress=********* -p 5005:80  98006abba2695082cb9aa325ff2858285d8b6df09af517028405aed88c5410ff69d6f3e984fc
