When using the Docker capability of the Agent Provider, the metainfo is zipped into a simple app definition for compatibility with the old method of providing app packages. You might want the slider upgrade command, although I think that will restart existing containers in addition to having new containers use a new configuration. Update is only for changing the appConfig, while upgrade can change the metainfo for an app. (I am not completely sure upgrade works with docker mode because I haven't tried it, but in browsing the code I am not seeing anything that makes me think it won't work.)
