Portainer? Never heard of her!

Goal:

• I have a lot of servers to manage & the Docker servers are getting plentiful, so lets see if Portainers can help

Lessons Learned:

• Create a volume
• Create a portainer
• Login to Portainer

Create Volume & Portainer:

• Few steps to make life easier in this “master-piece”
  • SSH
    • Connect to public IP address
  • Create portainer w/command –
    • docker volume create portainer_data
  • Run portainer w/command –
    • docker container run -d –name portainer -p 8080:9000 \
      • – d = run in background
      • Make sure portainer is mapped port 8080 to 9000
      • Ensure a restart policy is set to always w/a bind mount that maps var/run/docker.sock to container
  • List container w/command –
    • docker container ls

Login to Portainer & Create Container:

• Login to Portainer
  • Create user

• Go to local

• Create container:
