tmoran000 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) I am wondering What uses "Dcker Memory" and how do I increase the amount that can be used for it. I have 24gb of ram, dont run any VM but I have a pretty extensive Plex server running. It always seems when I have a lot of people using plex, the Docker memory usage goes way up. I have hardware transcoding on with a P2000 and meta data and transcoding folder set on a unassigned disk SSD so im curious why sometimes ill have 25 people streaming and it is using half and other times im getting warnings that its almost full..

tjb_altf4 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) Docker "memory" (as shown on dashboard) isn't actually memory, its an image file that holds all the downloaded layers of docker containers and any files not mapped to a volume/share. It can be increased, but this typically indicates a misconfigured mapping to volume/share. Edited February 17, 2021 by tjb_altf4 Quote Link to comment

You probably should verify your settings for the transcode folder. Both in the docker template and in plex iteself. Quote Link to comment
tmoran000 Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 I am pretty sure it is transcoding to my mounted ssd. I have it installed there and the transcode is to the root which should be ssd. its just confusing Quote Link to comment
