The Containers page provides direct access to all Docker containers on your system, including those not managed through deployments. This is useful for monitoring and managing individual containers.
Container List
The container list displays:
- Name — Container name
- Image — Docker image being used
- Status — Running, exited, created, etc.
- Health — Health check status (if configured)
- Ports — Port mappings
- Created — When the container was created
Filtering
Filter containers by status:
- All — Show all containers
- Running — Only running containers
- Exited — Only stopped containers
Container Actions
Actions available for each container:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Start | Start a stopped container |
| Stop | Gracefully stop a running container |
| Restart | Stop and start the container |
| Logs | View container logs in modal |
| Stats | View resource usage |
| Remove | Delete the container (must be stopped) |
Viewing Logs
Click the logs action to open the log viewer modal:
- Tail Lines — Number of lines to display
- Follow — Auto-scroll to new logs

Viewing Stats
Real-time resource monitoring for a container:
- CPU Usage — Percentage of CPU being used
- Memory — Used memory vs. limit

All Container Stats
Use the "Stats" button in the header to view resource usage for all running containers in a single view. This is helpful for identifying resource-heavy containers.
Terminal Access
