Mac OS X You install Docker using Docker Toolbox. Docker Toolbox includes the following Docker tools: Docker Machine for running the docker-machine binary Docker Engine for running the docker binary Docker Compose for running the docker-compose binary Kitematic, the Docker GUI a shell preconfigured for a Docker command-line environment Oracle VM VirtualBox Because the Docker daemon uses Linux-specific kernel features, you can’t run Docker natively in OS X. Instead, you must use docker-machine

Understand Machine concepts and get help Docker Machine allows you to provision Docker machines in a variety of environments, including virtual machines that reside on your local system, on cloud providers, or on bare metal servers (physical computers). Docker Machine creates a Docker host, and you use the Docker Engine client as needed to build images and create containers on the host. Drivers for creating machines To create a virtual machine, you supply Docker Machine with the name of the dri

volume create Usage: docker volume create [OPTIONS] Create a volume -d, --driver=local Specify volume driver name --help Print usage --label=[] Set metadata for a volume --name= Specify volume name -o, --opt=map[] Set driver specific options Creates a new volume that containers can consume and store data in. If a name is not specified, Docker generates a random name. You create a volume and then configure the container to use it, for

Deploying Notary Server with Compose The easiest way to deploy Notary Server is by using Docker Compose. To follow the procedure on this page, you must have already installed Docker Compose. Clone the Notary repository git clone git@github.com:docker/notary.git Build and start Notary Server with the sample certificates. docker-compose up -d For more detailed documentation about how to deploy Notary Server see the instructions to run a Notary service as well as https://github.com/docker/not

Installation from binaries This instruction set is meant for hackers who want to try out Docker on a variety of environments. Before following these directions, you should really check if a packaged version of Docker is already available for your distribution. We have packages for many distributions, and more keep showing up all the time! Check runtime dependencies To run properly, docker needs the following software to be installed at runtime: iptables version 1.4 or later Git version 1.7 or l

Install Docker Machine On OS X and Windows, Machine is installed along with other Docker products when you install the Docker Toolbox. For details on installing Docker Toolbox, see the Mac OS X installation instructions or Windows installation instructions. If you want only Docker Machine, you can install the Machine binaries directly by following the instructions in the next section. You can find the latest versions of the binaries are on the docker/machine release page on GitHub. Installing

Image management The Docker Engine provides a client which you can use to create images on the command line or through a build process. You can run these images in a container or publish them for others to use. Storing the images you create, searching for images you might want, or publishing images others might use are all elements of image management. This section provides an overview of the major features and products Docker provides for image management. Docker Hub The Docker Hub is responsi

pause Usage: docker pause [OPTIONS] CONTAINER [CONTAINER...] Pause all processes within a container --help Print usage The docker pause command uses the cgroups freezer to suspend all processes in a container. Traditionally, when suspending a process the SIGSTOP signal is used, which is observable by the process being suspended. With the cgroups freezer the process is unaware, and unable to capture, that it is being suspended, and subsequently resumed. See the cgroups freezer docu
