RE: MinimServer on Docker on QNAP. Won't start clean.
If you follow the instructions, the native app doesn't share any configuration information with the container. Specifically, the /MinimServer folder in the container does not contain the container's MinimServer configuration. This read-only mapping is needed for the container to access MinimServer license data that is shared between the native app and all MinimServer Docker instances, so that only one MinimServer license activation is used no matter how many MinimServer Docker instances are running.

Your custom configuration is not supported and has not been tested. It might work initially but break later. More importantly, it isn't doing what you want and expect. In order to keep a backup copy of of the container's configuration, you need to map the container's /opt/minimserver/data folder (not /MinimServer) to some location outside the container.

I strongly recommend that you revert your installation to the supported configuration described in the user guide and use the approach described in the paragraph above for backup purposes.
