What is diff between docker pause/unpause and stop/kill?
Docker Pause will suspend all the process inside a container by sending SIGSTOP command, where as in Docker stop the main process will receive SIGTERM and after a grace period it receives SIGKILL.
SIGSTOP is the pause signal. The only behavior is to pause the process; the signal cannot be caught or ignored. The shell uses pausing (and its counterpart, resuming via SIGCONT) to implement job control.
SIGTERM is the termination signal. The default behavior is to terminate the process, but it also can be caught or ignored. The intention is to kill the process, gracefully or not, but to first allow it a chance to cleanup.
SIGKILL is the kill signal. The only behavior is to kill the process, immediately. As the process cannot catch the signal, it cannot cleanup, and thus this is a signal of last resort.
