I have two containers ran by Docker Swarm:

# docker ps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                               COMMAND                  CREATED             STATUS              PORTS               NAMES

$ docker stats --no-stream
CONTAINER           CPU %               MEM USAGE / LIMIT   MEM %               NET I/O             BLOCK I/O           PIDS

Host OS is Debian Jessie. There are JVM applications in both containers. Why does docker stats show zero memory usage? Should I configure my Java apps somehow to be able to see memory usage in docker stats? Is there some other way to check memory usage?

docker jvm java

Ubuntu 20.04,

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cgroup_enable=memory swapaccount=1"

I had a same issue until I did not removed the oom-kill-disable from my yaml file.

        --memory=1500m \
   # --oom-kill-disable \
