If you don’t set this path it will keep the databases off of your shared network and inside of the container. Next, we need to tell the container where we’re going to store our database files. Change the network type to “None” then set the “Extra Parameters” property to “–network ” (that’s a double-dash then ‘network’) followed by the network name from above (e.g. You’ll be placed back on the MySQL container configuration screen. Now go ahead and close this window by typing “exit”. In the picture below you’ll see that mine is “br0”. In the last post we created a “macvlan” network. This will list all of Docker’s network configurations. You should see a new window open that looks like a terminal. To do this, open up the terminal by clicking on the “Terminal” link on the right side of the menu bar at the top of the screen. But first, we need to figure out what our network name is. Here is where we’ll configure our container by setting the root password, defining the network, and path for our databases. Switch to the Advanced View by clicking on the toggle in the upper-right corner of the screen. After you do this, you’ll be taken to a setup screen.

The very first result is the official Oracle MySQL image, click the download icon. The screen should now show images that are available on Docker Hub. Near the top of the search results is a link to search Docker Hub, click that. The first screen is results for Unraid plugins, but we don’t want those. Go to your “Apps” tab in Unraid and search for MySQL.

Now let’s install MySQL and connect to it. In the previous post, I walked you through setting up your Unraid server to pull images from Docker Hub and also set it up so each Docker container will receive its own IP address.
