So far I’ve created a new ProxMox container for each application I wanted to run.
So I have pihole running in an LXC, Nextcloud in another LXC, Audiobookshelf in yet another LXC, Home Assistant in a VM, etc.
I’m sure that could be done more efficiently with Docker, but for some reason that just doesn’t want to click. I don’t know where the applications end up installed at, I don’t know how to configure stuff, nor how to run multiple docker containers on the same machine.
Immich is the first application I have managed to get running full time in Docker, but I’ve already encountered an issue with uploads that I can’t solve, because I have no idea where to find the config files, nor how to restart it. So I’ll leave it as is, for now. Maybe when my brain can get engaged, I can try again.
You might look into Portainer. It gives you a nice GUI to manage docker-compose files, create stacks, edit and update, etc. On my Proxmox server, I have two LXCs set up that run almost all my services like immich, frigate, radarr/sonarr, VPN, qbittorrent, homarr, etc
You’ll probably find docker compose much easier to understand than plain docker especially considering there are a million templates out there that you can mostly copy and paste.
