Help to install Plex Media Server

Hello,

a few weeks ago one of my data drives passed away. I installed the PlexMediaServer on OMV4 by the extra feature six years ago on this drive. All my database is gone.

Now I'd like to install a fresh PMS on my OMV4.

I'm still a newbie in OMV and Linux but I know it's better to run the PMS in a docker.

I already downloaded the image "linuxserver/plex" by the standard docker app.

The next step is to start this image right? I just need to edit some settings before like:

- Restart policy to always

- network to host

- The PUID and PGID to 1000

- language to de_DE

... but then I don't know what to do next.

Can anyone help please? Or is there an easier/better way to install the newest PMS?

Is there a reason to have OMV4 over 7, or at least 6? A lot has CHANGED

"never change a running system"

Since the system has been running for years without any problems and I've only used it as a PlexMediaServer, an update was never really an option to me. To be honest, I don't even know why or what advantages it would bring to me.

The whole truth is that I don't have the confidence to update, let alone know how best to do it.

I'm glad I got OMV4 to run at all back then.

Ok, I'll try... I do a clean install with the latest OMV7 stable tonight. Should I disconnect the hard disks where my data is stored before? Can I mount them again without any problems after reinstalling OMV7 or will the partition be deleted each time?
