Hi 
To now i'm planning to install OMV4 for the first time, as version 5 is still in beta.
I saw a video about Portainer and would like to asK: will portainer be the new "standard"? Should i use it instead of Docker from the start? Or i'm fine with Docker itself?
I'm new to containers.
Thanks in advance!
In my opinion try to familiarize yourself with portainer, because the docker gui will be gone with OMV5. So transition will be much easier. Also when you get the hang of Portainer it acutally offers more functions than the docker gui of OMV4.
You can use the docker-gui and portainer in parallel. That might be helpful- or confusing 
You can follow existing guides which use the docker-gui. After everything is set up you can have a look at portainer to see how it looks their. After some time you will be able to set up every container using portainer. It is a way to learn how portainer is working.
Of course it is easier if you find guides that are based on portainer.
Just be careful. Some older guides might be even incompatible with the current version omv gui.
Right. those are the two points I am aware off:
@TechnoDadLife has a Portainer video that draws the lines between docker-GUI and Portainer that might help.
Right. those are the two points I am aware off:
- Don't use the "--network=mynet" as option in the docker-gui. Does not work any more.
- Don't use /sharedfolders/... but /srv/dev-disk-by-label.... instead
Thanks all! Yep i saw the video by Techodad
@macom could you please specify in detail what you mean? Both your advices are valid only for docker gui? I do not have to worry about them in Portainer? Do not know what that commands means in "practice".
Thanks all! Yep i saw the video by Techodad
In OMV 4's docker-gui... you could add that as an argument I believe. In OMV 5/Portainer (or OMV 4 w/ Portainer).. Once the network is created in the command line.. You'll have to start the container, and then it will be an available network device in the container GUI.. you can then manually change the container to use my-net, then restart the container.
Edit: Whether you want need to use them or not, specifically depends on what you're doing. If you're following the nextcloud/letsencrypt tutorial.. you'll have to do as below for it to work just fine.
You can also create networks in portainer.
