How to Install Docker Portainer on AlmaLinux 10

---

Portainer is a lightweight, open-source management tool for Docker, providing an easy-to-use graphical interface for managing containers, images, and volumes. It is ideal for both small-scale and large-scale Docker deployments.

Update the System

---

Ensure your system is up-to-date by running the following command:

dnf update -y

Install Docker

---

Portainer requires Docker to be installed. If Docker is not already installed, follow these steps:

Install required dependencies:

dnf install dnf-plugins-core -y

Add Docker’s official repository:

dnf config-manager --add-repo https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo

Install Docker:

dnf install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io -y

Start and enable Docker:

systemctl start docker
systemctl enable docker

Check Docker status:

systemctl status docker

Ensure that Docker is active and running.

Install Portainer

---

Once Docker is installed and running, you can proceed to install Portainer.

Create a Docker volume for Portainer:

docker volume create portainer_data

Output:

[root@vps ~]# docker volume create portainer_data
portainer_data

Download and run the Portainer container:

docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 9443:9443 --name=portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ce:latest

Output:

[root@vps ~]# docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 9443:9443 --name=portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ce:latest
