I’ve got an unRAID (6.11.5) server that I’m recovering from a bit of data loss on. I have the array started, with VMs and Docker disabled in settings.

I’d like to start the docker service without any containers spinning up automatically. Is there a way to do that? Is there a config file somewhere I can edit to disable autostart?

    I don’t think there is a config for that but I can think of two solutions

    First is to start docker and have a docker ps | xargs docker stop (on mobile so needs to be written appropriately), which could be quick enough

    Alternatively the nuclear option: move or rename the docker folder ( usually /var/lib/docker), “reinstall” docker so it recreates the folders and once done you can just swap them back
