Run docker container¶
Summary

You can store data from PMM in:

Key points
-
To Disable the Home Dashboard PMM Upgrade panel you can either add
-e DISABLE_UPDATES=trueto thedocker runcommand (for the life of the container) or navigate to PMM → PMM Settings → Advanced Settings and disable “Check for Updates” (can be turned back on by any admin in the UI). -
Eliminate browser certificate warnings by configuring a trusted certificate.
-
You can optionally enable an (insecure) HTTP connection by adding
--publish 80:80to thedocker runcommand. However, running PMM insecure is not recommended. You should also note that PMM Client requires TLS to communicate with the server, only working on a secure port.
