Description

I have been using the provided features for Docker using SSH transport and it works great for starting up containers and API calls. Currently I am experiencing issues getting some containers working with volume mapping over SSH.
Is there any preferred way to achieve a volume mapping between the remote docker host and the machine docker-py is running on ? My issue in particular is it seems that the filesystems directories are created but the contents of the volume isin't transferred over.

Start by investigating Docker SSH transport and volume-mapping behavior, especially whether contents should transfer between the local and remote hosts.
