I am trying to compose alertmanager with persistent storage, but having some problems.
This setup works for every other service I am running.
The weird part is that I really can't find where the actual data is stored.
There are no files created (as far as I can find). Even if I leave the default settings there are no database files created when setting silences. But during the life of the container the settings are clearly somewhere as I can add them/browse in web panel.

So the weird thing I discovered is that data is written only after I restart the machine. As if database is written only on exiting alertmanager. Untill then it is only held in memory.

Silences should be written out to the data directory every 15 minutes

(and during a clean shutdown).
