5. Test your backup/restore procedures regularly. An untested backup is as good as no backup.

With this amount of servers it seems to be quite a job running and managing all of these. I am running just a few containers and struggle sometimes when there is a major version upgrade to get everything back up running.

How much time do you spend on maintenance for these machines and do you have a tool for it or is it just plain command line? 😯

I was surprised as well but after watching some streamers doing r/place I learned that there are quite a lot of users who never used 3rd party apps and weren’t really touched by all the protests… The amount of questions “who is u/Spez” in the chat was also quite high. So they might have driven away a large chunk of the power users. But the remaining and the regular users are enough to keep it running I guess. As sad as this is.

Hey. That looks great. How did you mange to make it that pretty? Just one Question: is your Modem really part of VLAN 1? I am running a pretty similar setup and my modem just runs into my USG and terminates my internet connection there (so my public IP is at my USG).

I think there are two “Docker for Windows” one is docker desktop used on windows client OS where you can switch between windows and linux containers. This is the one where it runs a VM for the Linux containers but it’s designed for development and not so much for hosting (at least I have not get it to work for this)

And there is the docker that’s included in Windows Server wich can only run windows containers but those natively and suitable for hosting dotnet web services on scale.

Or just do it and ask later if there are problems ;) from.my experience when you ask they say no.

Here is a forum thread from the docker forum. You might find some valuable insights there: https://forums.docker.com/t/docker-run-linux-container-in-windows-2019/128196

While there is a docker version for windows (server I believe) the last time I checked it could only run windows containers (so basically none). The Linux support never got out of beta. I think now they are just saying use windows subsystem for Linux (WSL) for that.

I have been quite happy with docker on a Linux virtual machine hosted on a windows server (I know not the “normal” way to do it but since I am a windows Server admin at work it worked best for me).

The reason that you cannot run Linux containers on windows by default is that docker is no full fledged virtualization Software it sill uses the kernel of the host system. And a Linux container needs a Linux host system.
