Ask a Question!

Hi. Hi have a swarm cluster that its working fine, but I have a requirement thar for one application it needs direct access to hardware (USB), and in swarm mode this is not possible. So, I need to deploy as Standlone Container, but I cant find any way to do in Portainer. I have tried to create a template but then in stacks I only can create stacks for swarm templates. Is there any way to do this?

Hello, do you have a standalone environment? You can deploy a single container in your Swarm environment via the Container tab, but if you are wanting to do a standalone compose deployment then you will need a standalone environment in Portainer.

I have a swarm environment. I've tried adding a standalone environment, but seems that portainer detect that docker node is in a swarm cluster and run stacks with docker stack deploy....

Yes that correct, if you wish to deploy standalone Docker, then you will need a seperate environment outside of your Swarm for those deployments.
