you answered my biggest question in less than 3 minutes of your video. i was confused why my website kept failing when i put the database containers on the bottom... now... i know. thank you for all your amazing videos. without you i wouldn't have 1/2 of my docker containers.
Hi Ibracorp - nice video. You missed one important tip for dockers and that is docker log management. Go to settings > docker > enable to no. Scroll down and you'll see the log management and log rotation configuration details. This is one of the common causes of the docker image file being bloated.
Absolutely fantastic! What a great video. I was just thinking of doing one on the docker network setup. I get comments about that all the time because I never show it in my videos. Excellent stuff!
Just ordered some hardware for a CPU/MB combo I had leftover from an upgrade. Going to throw an UnRaid NAS together. Thanks for the video. Very helpful.
Just wanted to say thanks for all of your videos. Unraid can be pretty complex for a new user, and some of the older documentation can be slightly out of date which makes older videos and guides hard to follow. Your videos have been super useful!
Another great video for extra parameters I find restart policy is useful ex --restart always potential good video idea would be pulling a docker image direct from docker hub
Thanks Chris that's a great addition and one I didn't know. I actually already have a video on pulling straight from Docker Hub so thanks for the suggestion there too !
Great video! I didn't know at least half of those tips. Thank you! I have an idea for a video that would definitely help me out and I'm sure of a lot of Unraid newbs like me. I've been looking for an easy way to create databases (Mariadb, mysql, postgres11, etc) with a GUI, without diving into the terminal/console. I did find a few dockers that might do what I'm looking for, but I'm sure you already know what is best. Either way, thank you for the videos!! Cheers
Thanks for watching Tony glad it helped you out! I am planning to do a video on that actually but in the meantime I wrote a guide here ibracorp.io/create-a-database-with-mariadb-on-unraid/ You can also watch our Cachet and Authelia videos which show you how to use Adminer to create and manage databases
To delete files left over from Radarr/Sonarr you can use a user script and run this command "rm -r PATH TO WHERE YOUR FILES DOWNLOAD TO/*" and set it to delete on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. It will delete all files in the folder where you have Radarr/ Sonarr mapped to. Very useful so you don't have to do it manually.
Thank you! I really wish someone would make a video specifically on custom docker networks and how you port forward to a custom network. I’ve spent way to many hours trying to get bitwarden or any other docker container to go from my lan to my wan and how exactly do you set up port forward rules for that. everything I do on cloud flare sends me to my UnRaid page and not the subdomain or the docker container I’m trying to target. I’ve tried swag and Nginx proxy manger all of them send me to UnRaid home page or I get a 502, 525 etc. thank you for any insight here, space invader tells you what to do but not why or dives in deep enough for one to fully understand.
You're doing a great job. Thank you !! I would be a great thing to see you covering full Grafana/InfluxDB/other with some basic config and Dashboard creation. Cheers mate and keep it up !
To restart containers on a schedule you can create a user script and type in this command "docker restart container name" and set it for when you want it to restart. its useful if you want a certain container to restart on a schedule.
I have multiple ARR containers with different names but when setting prowlarr and adding hostnames to it the hostname only works for the original container, say "sonarr" but prowlarr can't connect to "sonarr2" only by ip address. Any ideas?
Thank you for the video! how do I create 2 docker versions of the same app in docker 6.9.2? if I wanted to test a new rev and not delete the old or go back and forth testing it?
@@IBRACORP I figured it out, looks like 6.9.2 you have to use add container in docker and select the template of the app you want to duplicate. thank you for the help.
Ibracorp, Does "Custom Docker Network" confer any extra security? Like if you have Nginx-NPM running... and you have PLEX reverse proxied... do you need to use a custom docker network? I keep Plex in Host mode, instead of a custom docker network. Is this less secure?
Hi Michael! No it's not less secure in that respect. Plex has to be in host mode for it to work correctly and it's already an exposed service since authentication is through their servers. However, a custom network will allow the containers to speak to one another using their names (easier to program) and will allow you assign seperate IP addresses. So in that respect in can be a bit more secure
Great Video! But it always makes me laugh how people outside UK pronounce Database, like Dartabase. You even say Data in the dartabase at one point which made me spit out my coffee. Anyway. Good stuff.
I have successfully been able to create my own custom network but moving some containers to it results in loss of port mapping e.g. Plex, Deluge (from Host) is there something I am missing to be able to do this?
Hi Ben it still bridges the ports across so this should not be an issue. One thing to keep in mine though is in Plex settings you can add your local subnet otherwise it will see anything outside of the Docker network as 'remote'
@@IBRACORP Thanks for the response, I do mean though the container becomes unreachable like there is no IP address and therefor unusable. I am aware of the local address and have left it blank but I will check if I need to make changes to that prior to making the change again
I cannot find your videos on getting an app running. I'm really strugling with making my game servers usable. I cannot get access outside my network and I just can't find a video anywhere that actually shows setting one up

Excellent tip mate totally forgot that one and when I first started it was an important. Cheers for sharing
Just setting up my first dockers on my first Unraid, this is still super useful, thankyou!
Welcome and thank you for watching!
Absolutely fantastic! What a great video. I was just thinking of doing one on the docker network setup. I get comments about that all the time because I never show it in my videos. Excellent stuff!
Thank you mate much appreciated! It gets asked quite a bit doesn't it
@@IBRACORP On pretty much every video I do where I use NGinX Proxy Manager.
Another great video!
Thanks Carl!
I can't understand why you don't have more subscriptions!
Do you know about VLANs? If so, can you show how to reconcile VLANs and Docker?
Help share the love mate and hopefully more subs will come :)
I'm not an expert on VLANS but definitely stuff that can be covered in future yes
Thanks for the great tips on Unraid. Definitely interested in tips and how to's. Great Job!
My pleasure Paul thank you for watching! More to come soon
@4:26 Your voice reminds me of Korg from the MCU! !

Good stuff
Cheers Eli!
I'm new to the unraid world and I just want to thank you for these great tutorials. keep it up
Shukran Ahmed much appreciated! Glad you're finding them helpful :)
Awesome video bud, but could you maybe explain how to set up a custom docker network? 😜
Haha almost got me there!
I know this is quite old now, but some really useful tips!
Old but gold, right? Timeless advice never goes out of style!

Thank you Maciej much appreciated! I will make my way to it in time hopefully, stay tuned and thanks for watching
At 4:44 you describe custom networks, how would I route a docker through another (vpn) docker while on a custom network?
To restart containers on a schedule you can create a user script and type in this command "docker restart container name" and set it for when you want it to restart. its useful if you want a certain container to restart on a schedule.
Nice one Glen thanks for sharing!
Thx definitely creating a new network now 😂
a video on how to create and add a docker file to unraid would be cool. :)
Ok can you please explain what are you doing with overseerr without sonarr or radarr ? Sorry had to stop the video just to ask the question .
Yeah mate that was installed in our NGINX Proxy Manager video to show how to proxy out an app. Not actually being used for downloading content
I have multiple ARR containers with different names but when setting prowlarr and adding hostnames to it the hostname only works for the original container, say "sonarr" but prowlarr can't connect to "sonarr2" only by ip address. Any ideas?
Thank you for the video! how do I create 2 docker versions of the same app in docker 6.9.2? if I wanted to test a new rev and not delete the old or go back and forth testing it?
Create a new one with a different name and the version you want in the repo name 🙂
@@IBRACORP thank you for replying. I tried that for unmanic and it didn't work. I was wondering if I missed something?
Well you also need to make sure the appdata location is different, else, it will be loading the same config
@@IBRACORP thanks did that too. but not allowing 2 revisions. I get orphan image. is this something they removed in 6.9.2?
@@IBRACORP I figured it out, looks like 6.9.2 you have to use add container in docker and select the template of the app you want to duplicate. thank you for the help.
