Compose: docker compose can not link a exists running docker container.
docker compose can not link a exists running docker container.
In our production servers, we already running containers. such as redis, memcached, mysqld
But docker compose can not link exists docker container.
so Use less for production environment.

For me it throws:
dial tcp: lookup logstash on 127.0.1.1:53: no such host
It is not able to resolve the container name, to which I want to link.
