or referring to the custom [configuration file](https://docs.pantheon.pegasys.tech/en/latest/Getting-Started/Run-Docker-Image/#custom-configuration-file)
or [genesis file](https://docs.pantheon.pegasys.tech/en/latest/Getting-Started/Run-Docker-Image/#custom-genesis-file).
To recover the node key and data directory from the Docker container:
Where `container` is the name or ID of the Docker container containing the Pantheon node.
The container can be running or stopped when you copy the key and data directory. If your node was
fully synchronized to MainNet, the data directory will be ~2TB.
When restarting your node with the v0.8.4 Docker image:
* Save the node key in the [`key` file](https://docs.pantheon.pegasys.tech/en/latest/Configuring-Pantheon/Node-Keys/#node-private-key) in the data
directory or specify the location using the [`--node-private-key` option](https://docs.pantheon.pegasys.tech/en/latest/Configuring-Pantheon/Node-Keys/#specifying-a-custom-node-private-key-file).
* Specify the `<destination_directory` as a [volume for the data directory](https://docs.pantheon.pegasys.tech/en/latest/Getting-Started/Run-Docker-Image/#data-directory).

- Moved admin\_peers to Admin API group [\#473](https://github.com/PegaSysEng/pantheon/pull/473)
- Nodes whitelist acceptance test [\#472](https://github.com/PegaSysEng/pantheon/pull/472)
- Rework RoundChangeManagerTest to not reuse validators [\#469](https://github.com/PegaSysEng/pantheon/pull/469)
- Ignore node files to support truffle. [\#467](https://github.com/PegaSysEng/pantheon/pull/467)
From v0.8.3, incoming HTTP requests are only accepted from hostnames specified using the `--host-whitelist` command-line option. If not specified, the default value for `--host-whitelist` is `localhost`.
If using the URL `http://127.0.0.1` to make JSON-RPC calls, use `--host-whitelist` to specify the hostname `127.0.0.1` or update the hostname to `localhost`.
If your application publishes RPC ports, specify the hostnames when starting Pantheon. For example:
```json
pantheon --host-whitelist=example.com
```
Specify `*` or `all` for `--host-whitelist` to effectively disable host protection and replicate pre-v0.8.3 behavior. This is not recommended for production code.
* Reorganised [Installation documentation](https://github.com/PegaSysEng/pantheon/wiki/Installation) and added [Chocolatey installation](https://github.com/PegaSysEng/pantheon/wiki/Install-Binaries#windows-with-chocolatey) for Windows
* Reorganised [JSON-RPC API documentation](https://github.com/PegaSysEng/pantheon/wiki/JSON-RPC-API)
