I'm used following [Install Elasticsearch with Docker | Elasticsearch Reference [5.6] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docker.html) to span up elasticsearch cluster and now trying to integrate [Google Cloud Storage Repository Plugin | Elasticsearch Plugins and Integrations [5.6] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/repository-gcs.html) as well...

I'll quote part of "Google Cloud Storage Repository Plugin" document:

> The plugin must be installed on every node in the cluster, and each node must be restarted after installation.

I was able to install plugin without any issue, however restarting node/service is another issue:

```
root@elk11:~# docker exec -it elasticsearch11 bash
[elasticsearch@1231f1e0307c ~]$ bin/elasticsearch-plugin install repository-gcs
-> Downloading repository-gcs from elastic

```

I'm not sure how to restart node (service) other then restarting the whole docker container itself, If this isn't right way to go about it, what's the better way?

Please advise.
