Creating a Portainer instance from the Unraid Docker GUI

  • Unraid web UI > Docker > Add Container
  • Toggle Advanced View

Configuration:

  • Name: portainer (or whatever you like)
  • Repository: portainer/portainer-ce
  • Extra Parameters: -p 9443:9443 --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data1
  • Network Type: Bridge (default)

  1. See Install Portainer with Docker on Linux. The recommended deployment command is docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 9443:9443 --name portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ce:latest. Regarding port 8000: "[it] is optional and is only required if you plan to use the Edge compute features with Edge agents." So I don't expose it. The other elements of the command are reflected elsewhere in the form. ↩
