  1. Backup manager: Include Docker Volumes

    Some of my dockers are inside the sites' folders, inside httpd, but some have different permissions or user groups that sometimes do not allow the volume to be backed up, an example was postgresql, you can test, if there is even one advice on how you could add permission to the user or the system that makes the backup so that they can copy the files, for example.

    Furthermore, it would be great to get a backup of the container volumes, I believe this would make pleks the only one and come out ahead of the other panels.

  3. Docker memory management

    Please add the ability to manage Docker containers. Currently the extension allows limiting the RAM usage, but doesn't allow adjusting swap limit and protect container from being killed by OOM.

  4. Add ability to manage Docker networks

    Please add the ability to manage Docker networks by means of Plesk interface. It would be really nice to have the ability to create subnets and move containers between them.

  5. Run docker containers as subscription user

    Currently all containers are run as root user, however when mapping persistent volumes into subscription directories e.g. databases/config/logs, the UID that runs inside the containers are not linked to a UID outside, so containers that have restrictive file permissions (i.e. 600) in the persistent volumes, when subscription level actions are run e.g. backups, these files are not accessible by the subscription user.
    Would be nice to specify a subscription user to run the docker container with (on docker cli it is possible to pass the user flag along with a UID) so that the resulting files are accessible by the…

  7. Disable docker exposed ports in firewall

    It should be possible to block the port exposing in global nets from docker containers within the firewall.
    It's a massive security lack! Most applications are run behind a 'docker proxy rule', so there's no need to expose the port to the whole internet.
    Docker's modifying the firewall by itself, so this has to be disabled.

  9. Start docker container with additional parameters

    Usually, when I use existing docker images from docker-hub or even my own, there are plenty of options I would like to provide on start of a new container. Currently plesk does not support that. From the commandline a docker-container can be instantiated with several image-specific parameters. I would like to be able to do that from plesk , too.

  11. docker logs

    Docker containers' logs are not being rotated and in time occupies a lot of space.
    It would be nice if there was an option to specify flags like:
    --log-driver json-file
    --log-opt max-size=50
    --log-opt max-file=2

  13. Add portainer

    while somewhat noob friendly the current docker plugin is just missing pretty much every feature to make it useful for anyone else than a hobbyist.

    Portainer is multitudes more powerful and feature rich to serve the power users, for example being able to set up networks and swarms

  15. Allow setting of ip adresses for docker containers when multiple nics are available

    When a server has multiple external ip adresses (either dedicated network interfaces or alias interfaces) it should be possible via the UI to specify (in addition to the port mapping) the ip address that are recognized by the system.

    This could be a dropdown with i.e.
    "any" (any of the ip addresses)
    81.169.175.40
    81.169.175.41
    ...

  17. Extend restart options for docker

    Currently, Docker extension only supports "no" and "unless-stopped" (represented by "Automatic start after system reboot" tickbox).
    It would be nice having the ability to select any of:

    no
    on-failure
    always
    unless-stopped
