Hh no! A miss in editing! Did we miss any tools you love using on your server? Let everyone know in the comments because I'm sure we missed a lot! Don't forget to like and subscribe! 🙂

[@TheXtrem001]

Grafana with the ultimate unraid dashboard

[@IBRACORP]

It's on our list because it deserves a full video so we didn't want to include it here

[@cotoilaurentiu]

Apache Guacamole...? It's a clientless remote desktop gateway that supports standard protocols like VNC, RDP, and SSH...

[@TheJaredStein]

What is running your amazing looking dashboard dockers screen? It looks amazing, do you have a video going over what you use?

[@leaf-]

Awesome video Ibracorp! Timestamps for people: 2:01 Scutiny 4:33 Midnight Commander 6:16 matomo 7:32 adminer 8:33 portainer 10:17 Dozzle 11:52 Netdata 14:54 uptime kuma 16:33 PuTTY 17:09 GoAccess

[@IBRACORP]

Thanks for the timestamps! 🙂 Added to description

[@magmanthe]

typo in first one.. ScRutiny

[@a88pockets]

you should make a video about keeping our photo libraries in check with unraid. Be it scanning out photo collections for duplicate files or just downloading everything from the cloud and then backing up your organized photos to the cloud (again. I just setup icloudpd from the unRAID apps tab and it is pretty rad, if only to be certain that I have another backup of my icloud photos

[@CorneliusChristiansen]

Yes an excellent idea

[@johnthomas2970]

Just set up my new unraid build today - finally migrating from a Thermaltake W200 with a dual Xeon Supermicro board to a more reasonable Silverstone case with a ASUS W680 ACE and i5-14500. Looks like I've found your channel at the perfect time!

[@vladoportos]

Regarding ideas for next video: iPXE boot server on unraid :) im working on it now and its not that streight forward especially for windows installs.. super bonus points for diskless client booting ;)

[@joelang6126]

Sounds interesting mate. Any details? I'm using a FOG VM for HD image deployment using PXE.

[@IBRACORP]

Great suggestion. I've used WDS and MDT personally so another option would be great

[@blindside995]

This would be really neat. Do you have a blog or anything posted online about this?

[@savageaus_gamez]

+1 for pxe boot server.

[@vladoportos]

@@blindside995 Seems like I will have to write up some up-to-date guide, cause its not very clear how this work... I got grub2 to load over network (uefi booting) and to load multiple linux distros just fine, but not windows... so I scraped that. Now I'm on iPXE custom rom, and after half day trying to figure it out I finally made progress… How is it this difficult ? I'm Linux Admin by trade but ffs if you never worked on PXE booting before, there is so much confusing documentation that is not complete and expect you to just know some stuff... its not even funny :-/ (Not to mention Unifi inability to setup DHCP properly, you can choose one tftp server, one rom/efi file and that's it..., so I had to work around that as well... )

[@PoeLemic]

New to your channel, but this type of content is incredible. I'm trying to get into virtualization and starting to use it on my network -- only in a homelab situation. Yet, you make me feel comfortable with it, and it's less intimidating with how you cover it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@IBRACORP]

That's great hear mate thank you for coming and checking out the channel ✌️ Hope you keep enjoying the content

[@machin3doll]

Cheers on mentioning Midnight Commander. I didn't know that it was already installed on unRAID, and it's pretty sweet.

[@IBRACORP]

It's pretty amazing

[@AwesomeOpenSource]

Absolutely terrific list! Well done!

[@IBRACORP]

Thanks Brian! Much appreciated. If anyone is interested in a detailed video on Matamo, Portainer and more be sure to check out the Awesome Open Source channel! ✌️

[@syotos8643]

Did you have a video on your setup?, it looks awesome. A part 2 or a monthly top 10 apps in this style would be cool.

[@IBRACORP]

It's been requested in the live chat so I'll definitely get one out there! Thank you. Great suggestion I'll keep it in mind

[@78cutlass406]

I would love to see an in-depth video on portainer. As this would bring docker-compose and stacks to unraid. However, I'd like it to dive into the more advance things that unraid makes easy and the trade-offs. Example, how does this effect the view in unraid on the docker tab? What about networking? A nice video with the pros/cons and GOTCHAS would be amazing as it really is good practice to use a seperate db container for each application. Which would be terrible to do/organize in the unraid gui.

[@IBRACORP]

Excellent suggestions thanks for posting

[@78cutlass406]

@@IBRACORP Yeah, the other real issue with the Unraid docker is that enables people to learn hahaha. So let me explain a bit, the docker implementation and the app store is super easy, it is PERFECT for people that have zero docker experience. But it enables you to grow, and what happens is you semi-quickly outgrow it and need much much more. The problem with this is that once you realize you need more, you are then used to Unraid, so transitioning to something like portainer that lets you do whatever you want is a drastic change, enough to almost turn you away. There isn't really a soft transition. Its like playing in the park with your best friends one day at 10 years old and waking up the next day as a 30 year old in a construction job trying to figure out what is going on. haha. Not a bad thing at all, but not a huge win for unraid either. Also, I don't mean any of this as a knock on unraid. It just seems that their target market never changes, but the users do. I love unraid, I truly do, without it I wouldn't be anywhere close to where I am today. The problem is, it doesn't have any mechanisms to also grow with the users.

[@IBRACORP]

That's exactly right mate and I totally agree with you there. I, myself, had first experience with Docker properly in Unraid so became quite used to it. It wasn't until I had to build some Ubuntu servers that I learned about docker itself and what it can do. It's in our list 🙂

[@TristynRusselo]

What plugins are you using for your unraid GUI? thats not the normal docker folder plugin... what are those cpu/mem popups when hoverhing dockers? what are those 3 colored buttons top/right?

[@RossCanpolat]

I would love to see a video extending on Portainer👍

[@Travisrogers87]

Great overview! Gave me a lot of ideas for apps I didn’t even realize I needed. Thanks!

[@stonecoldant316]

thank you very much for showing Dozzle! Saves sooo much time.

[@IBRACORP]

Our pleasure

[@garygriffiths2487]

Thank You for the Dozzle introduction.

[@okkiesmaster7820]

2 year old video, but i leanred alot. tnx i installed dozzle, uptime kuma after this video, and im looking into netdata and portainer

[@dusterl1472]

A video on setting up portainer would be *awesome*. Don't even need to get into the nitty-gritty on what portainer can do (there's lots of videos on that), but one delving into aspects unique to a setup on unraid would be great.

[@IBRACORP]

Excellent idea thank you

[@StormRageTV]

Any tutorial for your unraid dashboard especialy docker tab and animated icons?

[@KevinMarchese]

great video man, you really should have more subs. but you might need to move on to other home labbing stuff. Maybe different Pi BTC nodes. umbrel, mynode, start9 etc. all the sovereign computing methods. I know it gets deep in the woods in this nitch but I look forward to your videos for sure!

[@IBRACORP]

Thanks Kevin that's some important feedback. We have actively been expanding our vision so hopefully we'll eventually cover a lot more ! Thank you for watching

[@cloud2050]

Thank you for the video, definitely like the goaccess docker. Can you do a tutorial on the setup for goacess I have been at it for days and cannot get it to work.

[@RutvikPatel2611]

The hell is that unraid ,super coool 🙌 i need that

[@ReinkeDK]

Thanks a lot for your channel, and this great video. I am soon setting up an Unraid server, and this list REALLY helps. What about making an updated one, with 10 new dockers? ;-)

[@IBRACORP]

Glad it helped! And he's great idea and new one will come soon 🙂

[@ReinkeDK]

@@IBRACORP Thanks 😊

[@LearnAtMyExpense]

What param to set for the required "Path: /run/udev:" field when setting up Scrutiny on unRAID via Docker?

[@machin3doll]

My exact question, too. I did some research and couldn't find a good answer to this anywhere.

[@homekus1664]

Thanks.! Very informative vid

[@wolftron6254]

Goaccess setup would be nice, that looks pretty interesting.

[@IBRACORP]

Definitely, we'll be covering it

[@mikemcdonald5147]

3 years later now 36k listeners congrats :)

[@panagiotistheodorakopoulos1593]

Great picks

[@koolkiwikat]

Netdata and Scrutiny for the win!

[@jjsto7]

What did you use to organize all your doxkers on your docker page?

[@IBRACORP]

Docker Folders plugin, we did a video on it 👍

[@koolkiwikat]

I now feel op for my home unraid setup....I have the POWER!

[@SirDition]

Great video. How did you get the docker containers to show up in Netdata? I've configured the PGID correctly but I'm not seeing the containers in the list?

[@IBRACORP]

Make sure they're on the same network talking to eachother

[@SirDition]

@@IBRACORP For anyone else that was having this problem, it seems patience was the fix. Did a bit of fault finding, network changes, etc, with no joy. Then the problem just fixed itself and all the container names just appeared while I was reading through the netdata support thread. Love it when a problem fixes itself!

[@IBRACORP]

So do we! Thanks for the update

[@CampRusso]

Seems netdata is the way to go! Even my new install of TrueNAS Scale has netdata built in!😲 So I'm going to install it on unRAID but I'm wondering if I should use my custom docker network (like almost all other dockers) or do I leave it at host? Which is what it says when I clicked install. EDIT: I guess it has to be host like the default settings from the install screen. It did not show IP info as custom docker network. I guess that is fine since I have Glances installed and set as host. Which can now be removed! 😀

[@nexusasus]

great videos Not to sure how to setup scrutiny (what to fill-in as for Path/run/udev) a quick look at your template could be useful the documentation is sometimes overwhelming

[@Ghi102]

All you need to put there is /run/udev, nothing else required!

[@Stevesmate4503]

can you please do a full blue iris set up using the docker. that would help me so much 🤣need to know how to get the recorded video data to save and over-right on a spare pool device!

[@enricocirne]

I have problems setting um Matomo, a video would be nice. Installed nearly all of them 😂

[@cereal_experiments]

how do you get this extended menu with the cpu and ram usage at 03:03?

[@IBRACORP]

Check out our Docker Folders video on our channel!

[@Aceriz]

How did you get portainer to work with unraid?

[@johnrussell5823]

You really need to do a complete video on how to set up and use netdata on unraid, it's supposed to be a great tool.

[@marlinpress5755]

More detail on midnight commander would be appreciated.

[@Moonwired]

How’d you get your docker page to look like that, mine isn’t that detailed.

[@IBRACORP]

Check out our Docker Folders video on our channel!

[@evanmarshall9498]

Setup guide for each tool on unraid?

[@stabbymeowkins]

I tried for a week to get Pterodactyl with your video and absolutely nothing worked. Not sure why. But I gave up and just host everything in manual dockers. ;/

[@a88pockets]

How did you setup your unRAID Docker view with folders?

[@IBRACORP]

im having problems wirth goaccess. the log says: nginx: [alert] could not open error log file: open() "/var/lib/nginx/logs/error.log" failed (13: Permission denied) how can i fix that?

How big is your docker img?

[@IBRACORP]

Geez Mike, bit personal mate? Ohh Docker. I've allocated 100GB but not using anywhere near it

[@johanpersson8645]

What is The 51% status bar?

[@IBRACORP]

The usage of space on the array

[@derBerg]

niceone!

[@vladoportos]

MC is not that great in browser shell :D F5 and so on seems not to work... however ssh into unraid and MC away , much better :)

[@IBRACORP]

You use the numbers instead. And you can change keybindings

[@vladoportos]

@@IBRACORP ah I did not know that :) cool, thanks !

[@brusdaar]

docker-compose is way better than dozzle or portainer IMO. I prefer learning terminal commands instead of running a bunch of containers to do the same thing you can get from docker-compose.

[@IBRACORP]

Different strokes for different folk but I do agree I enjoy the terminal

[@ra1k_0]

Wasn't this thing posted on the forums a few day ago?

[@IBRACORP]

Definitely our first time posting this 🙂

I think Adminer is supposed to be pronounced as "admin-er" rather than "ad miner" lol
