If you have installed pihole as a docker on UNRAID, get rid of it fast!

 

This is not for newbies (this is even not really something for experts, this is just bad thinking)

 

If you want pihole, get a pi and install pihole on it.

 

(if it sounded too harsh: "sorry, english is not my natural language")

 

Short explanation: the pihole docker creates an "chicken & egg" problem. UNRAID needs DNS for bootin already, but Dockers (and therefore pihole too) wont be available until UNRAID is up and the array is started successfully. This leads to massive delays, strange errors and sometimes even to blockades of the boot process.

The pihole docker can be used by any host in your lan, and even local dockers and VMs, BUT NOT FOR UNRAID ITSELF.

(therefor I would say, it is very questionable).
