Portainer, Supported

The previous post showed that portainer is now available for s390x. Today, the project announced a support offering which can also apply to IBM Z.
This is 22 days from the first PR to the project releasing for s390x and announcing support! Thanks, portainer.io-Team, this is amazing.

Portainer -- Revisited

A previous post described how to run portainer on z. Starting today, s390x support is part of their Docker Hub image. This makes the task a bit easier. Enter

docker run -d -p 9000:9000 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /opt/portainer:/data portainer/portainer

and point your browser to port 9000. Done.
Kudos to the portainer.io team for integrating s390x support so quickly!
