October 8, 201510 yr I really like the docker GUI that is built into unRAID 6. I only run a few containers on my unRAID server since it is not very powerful and I only intend for it to be a file server. I have a VMware vSphere virtual environment at home with several VMs, including an Ubuntu VM running docker for all my other containers. I am currently using Shipyard for management of containers on that VM, but its just OK. Is there another GUI out there that is similar to unRAID's? Specifically I really value the ability to check for updates and just click to update when a new version of the container is available. It sure beats having to destroy a container and recreate it while making sure to use the same paths and variables which is what I do now on my Ubuntu host.
October 8, 201510 yr What about running Unraid as a guest to host your docker containers from vmware? Not something I have any experience or knowledge about but may be a solution.. If it was just for dockers you couldl probably get by with the cheapest license as well.

If it was just for dockers you couldl probably get by with the cheapest license as well. I have considered this...not sure yet. One caveat is the inability to run 32 bit containers in unRAID like the HDHomeRun DVR beta that I am currently running in a container on Ubuntu. Would I even need an unRAID license to do this? Doesn't the trial version allow for docker containers? I actually have a second license, but I'd rather save that for emergencies in case my USB key dies.

Take a look at this: http://linoxide.com/linux-how-to/setup-dockerui-web-interface-docker/ The github repository for the project is here: https://github.com/crosbymichael/dockerui/

It looks like it doesn't have an unraid-like "update container" feature similar to shipyard, but I will compare the two. Perhaps I will like this one better.
October 21, 201510 yr Author Just saw this today. Tutum may be nice for anyone else who is interested.
October 24, 201510 yr +1 I've been trying some of the other "management" ui's and they are not a "user friendly" as unRAIDs.
