Hi everyone,
I need to know if it is possible to install Docker elsewhere than in the filesystem drive. I got problem when the filesystem disk is full.
Hi everyone,

The Docker storage location is what you need to be concerned about. The place to enter this path is System | omv-extras | Docker.

You may be interested in taking a look at this howto
I installed the most of my Docker files there :
/srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-2a43b639-d23d-4c9d-87f6-f12835fa028b/
Where I am confused is when I think about the fact that my RAID-10 is also there while Docker is somewhere in the /var/, I think.
I am reading this How to document, but in the meantime I am wondering if I can select the Docker installation path from the OMV-Extras?
/var/lib/docker is the default location, and being on the system disk, is a poor choice.
Did you read post #2?
Yes you can do it, the howto explains how to do it.
In your case you already have docker installed, so you should uninstall it, change the path you have now to the path that the howto says (or the one you want, outside the OS disk), and then reinstall it again.
On the other hand, you say that your drives are in RAID10 but you don't say the format. If it's mdadm you won't have a problem if you want to install docker there. But if it is ZFS you must take additional steps. Docker does not support the ZFS driver without taking certain precautions.
I agree gderf now I can see how bad this is to have Docker installed on the system disk, am glad I have this How to
Hey there, I am following the How-to and I can't find the wetty plugin. I installed symlinks and still can't find the wetty plugins, does it still needed? Thanks
Wetty is only needed to write CLI commands, you can use Putty or any other.
If you don't have Wetty, you're not in OMV6, it's a generic OMV6 plugin.
Is that make sense?
If what you want is to follow the howto, there is something that I think is not right. You have created the docker shared folder on the disk where the data is, not on the SSD.
I would consider updating the system to OMV6. Your OMV5 system is EOL.
You mean I had to create the docker shared folder on /Docker?
The docker folder is created in /SSD if you follow the howto
Okay I just upgraded to OMV6 and installed WeTTY.
So the SSD disk mounting path in point 2.3 of your guide is the absolute path of the docker ssd, right?
The folder structure is
/SSD
/SSD/docker
/SSD/config
/SSD/config/app1
/SSD/config/app2
/SSD/config/...
/DATA
/DATA/media
/DATA/media/films
/DATA/media/photo
/DATA/media/music
DATA/media/...
Check the UUIDs of your drives to create the /SSD and /DATA symlinks pointing to those file systems.
You can check the routes in the OMV interface in storage.
Oh ok ok, In my case /Media is the equivalent of /DATA
I have to thank you man ! You solved two problems at once, no more random and annoying folder name AND Docker on a completely different drive.
