Run Docker with volume

To run Docker with volume:

1. Pull the image:

   docker pull percona/pmm-server:2
   

2. Create a volume:

   docker volume create pmm-data
   

3. Run the image:

sh docker run --detach --restart always \ --publish 443:8443 \ --env PMM_WATCHTOWER_HOST=your_watchtower_host \ --env PMM_WATCHTOWER_TOKEN=your_watchtower_token \ --volumes-from pmm-data \ --network=pmm_default \ --name pmm-server \ perconalab/pmm-server:3.0.0-rc

1. Change the password for the default admin user:

   docker exec -t pmm-server change-admin-password <new_password>
   

2. Check the WatchTower prerequisites and pass the following command to Docker Socket to start Watchtower:

   docker run -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -e WATCHTOWER_HTTP_API_UPDATE=1 -e WATCHTOWER_HTTP_API_TOKEN=your_watchtower_token --hostname=your_watchtower_host --network=pmm_default docker.io/perconalab/watchtower
   

3. Visit https://localhost:443 to see the PMM user interface in a web browser. (If you are accessing the docker host remotely, replace localhost with the IP or server name of the host.)
