Where does hyperledger fabric store the database for the blockchain?

Question

I have hyperledger fabric network setup on my local machine with a single validating node. I am developing a chaincode and would like to clear my blockchain. I have read that

Answer 1

The Hyperledger Fabric stores the database in /var/hyperledger/production/db within the file system for the validating peer. You can navigate to the validating peer file system by using a command like docker exec -it substitute_container_name bash. I am not aware of another location of the database. If the instructions at https://hub.docker.com/r/ibmblockchain/fabric-peer/ for using Hyperledger Docker images are followed, then the database location should be /var/hyperledger/production/db.

Answer 2

To clear the blockchain, the easiest way is to stop and run docker container again, given that you only have 1 validator peer you should not be worried about data consistency. Also, try to use the latest version of fabric releases since they improved a lot these kind of problems. And regarding the issue,
