Any reason to not install Docker on a Proxmox server? I will be using my system in an Off Grid environment and would like to keep the number of servers running to an absolute minimum? Right now I have HA, AdGuard and Node Red running in VMs on my Proxmox Server (HP Elitedesk G2 with i5 6700, 16Gb and a 256G SATA SSD) I will be adding a 1 TB nvme soon and possibly replacing the SATA SSD with 2 x 1TB nvme cards.
Hi Dan, Most people would probably want to dedicate a [physical] machine to run docker, this is why I took this approach for the tutorial. I have a lot of docker containers running inside of LXC containers, but this is a bit more advanced. If you want to play around this guy tteck.github.io/Proxmox/ has a bunch of scripts that will install virtual machines or LXCs for you. As for the off grid, I can't help you much.
@@homeautomatorza Thanks for your answer, I have been using those scripts already, they work great. I say he had one for installing Docker onto Proxmox. The only factor with being off grid is power consumption. I have a huge lithium/solar system, but still would like to limit the servers to just one for my homelab...if possible.
