Plex ran on a dedicated Debian 11 VM at 10.100.0.24 until that OS reached LTS EOL on 2026-08-31 and apt security updates started 404ing. It now runs as a host-networked container on the Docker host at 10.100.0.35. Adds plex-docker-migration.md: the decision record and the executed procedure. The two choices worth knowing about are that media is bind mounted at the paths the library DB already stores (/mnt/nfs/*) so the migration rewrote none of its 32,262 absolute paths, and that the container runs on host networking so Plex still sees real client source IPs and does not throttle LAN playback as remote. Preferences.xml was carried across, so the server kept machine identifier 7aa65063599874eac3d9a2f62df74c1816400c88 and Tautulli, seerr and existing clients continued working without reconfiguration. Verified after cutover: libraries 1959/421/146 and 11,481 history entries, all matching the pre-migration baseline exactly. Rewrites plex.md for the container, adds plex to docker.md, and updates the component list in CLAUDE.md. The old VM is retained powered on with plexmediaserver stopped and disabled as rollback, so docs for ESXi and Veeam are deliberately left describing it until decommission.
