Hello, have setup my proxmox server since some weeks recently I found that LXC containers could be useful as it really separate all my services in differents containers. Since then I figured out to move my docker’s services from a vm into several LXC containers. I ran into some issues, the first one is that a lot of projects run smoother in docker and doesn’t really have a “normal” way of being package… The second thing is related to the first one, since they are not really well implemented into the OS how can I make the updates?
So I wonder how people are deploying their stuffs on LXC proxmox’s containers?
Thanks for your help!
EDIT : Tried to install docker upon debian LXC but the performances were absolutely terrible…
Your problem with docker in LXC might be if you’re using ZFS for your host storage, IIRC you need to install fuse-overlayfs on host and LXC that will be running docker. It works fine for me that way. I’m not sure if that requirement has changed recently, when I did it, the host was under PM 7.X and Debian 11 LXC.
zfs overlay / docker snapshot issue has been solved since 2021. Proxmox is also well into 8.3, 8.0 has been stable since early 2023.
