How to install Docker on CentOS 7
|
||
================================================================================
|
||
Docker is an open-source tool that makes creating & managing **Linux containers(LXC)** easy. Containers are like lightweight VMs which can be started & stopped in milliseconds. Dockers help the system admin & coders to develop their application in a container and can further scale up to 1000 of nodes.
|
||
|
||
The main difference between container and VM(Virtual machine) is that dockers provide **process based isolation** , whereas VM provides full isolation of resources. Virtual machine takes a minute to start where as container can be started in a second or less than a second. Container uses the Kernel of host OS , whereas VM uses the separate Kernel.
|
||
|
||
One of the limitation of Docker is that it can be used only on **64bit hosts** OS.
|
||
|
||
In this post we will discuss how to install docker in CentOS 7.x
|
||
|
||
### Installation of Docker on CentOS 7 ###
|
||
|
||
Docker package is included in the default CentOS-Extras repository. So to install docker , simply run below yum command :
|
||
|
||
[root@localhost ~]# yum install docker
|
||
|
||
### Start the Docker Service ###
|
||
|
||
Once the Installation is finished , start docker service and enable it at boot using below commands
|
||
|
||
[root@localhost ~]# service docker start
|
||
[root@localhost ~]# chkconfig docker on
|
||
|
||
**Download the official Centos images Locally**
|
||
|
||
[root@localhost ~]# docker pull centos
|
||
Pulling repository centos

|
||

||

|
||

|
||

|
||
|
||
**Verify CentOS images that have been fetched :**
|
||
|
||
[root@localhost ~]# docker images centos
|
||
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED VIRTUAL SIZE
|
||
centos centos5 192178b11d36 2 weeks ago 466.9 MB
|
||
centos centos6 70441cac1ed5 2 weeks ago 215.8 MB
|
||
centos centos7 ae0c2d0bdc10 2 weeks ago 224 MB
|
||
centos latest ae0c2d0bdc10 2 weeks ago 224 MB
|
||
|
||
**Run a Docker Container :**
|
||
|
||
[root@localhost ~]# docker run -i -t centos /bin/bash
|
||
[root@dbf66395436d /]#
|
||
|
||
As we can see centos container has been started and we got the bash shell. In docker command we have used options like ‘-i attaches stdin and stdout’ and ‘-t allocates a terminal or console’ . To disconnect from container type exit .
|
||
|
||
[root@cd05639b3f5c /]# cat /etc/redhat-release
|
||
CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core)
|
||
[root@cd05639b3f5c /]# exit
|
||
exit
|
||
[root@localhost ~]#
|
||
|
||
We can also search Containers based on fedora & ubuntu OS.
|
||
|
||
[root@localhost ~]# docker search ubuntu
|
||
[root@localhost ~]# docker search fedora
|
||
|
||
**Display the list of running containers **
