Download and save the Docker repository signing key:

curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg

Add the Docker repository in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list:

deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu noble stable

Allow unattended updates from this repository by add to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:

  Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins { 
        // Append to end of existing entries
        "Docker:${distro_codename}";
};

Update the repositories and install the package:

apt update
apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-compose-plugin

Check all is working with:

docker version

Stop the services

systemctl stop docker.service
systemctl stop docker.socket
systemctl stop containerd.service

Move the Docker root directory: (optional)

mv /var/lib/docker /srv/data

Edit the systemd service for Docker:

systemctl edit docker.service (only if moving)

Add the following to the top of the override file:

<code>
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd -–data-root=/srv/data/docker -H fd:// --containerd=/run/containerd/containerd.sock
</code>

Restart Docker:

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl start docker.service

Check it still works with:

docker run hello-world

Download and save the NVIDIA repository signing key:

curl -fsSL https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/gpgkey | gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/nvidia-container.gpg

Add the Docker repository in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nvidia-container.list:

deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/nvidia-container.gpg] https://nvidia.github.io/libnvidia-container/stable/ubuntu18.04/$(ARCH) /

Allow unattended updates from this repository by add to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:

Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern {
        "site=nvidia.github.io";
};

Update the repositories and install the package:

apt update
apt install nvidia-docker2

Restart Docker:

systemctl restart docker.service

If using ZFS, create a filesystem to store the video recordings (not used currently)

zfs create -o recordsize=1M -o compression=off -o quota=256G data/cctv
