You should see the output something like the following: Client:

To verify CentOS 7 Docker Installation, Type: docker version To install docker, Open the terminal and type: yum install docker docker-registryĪfter the installation is finished, start the docker service and enable to start docker automatically when system reboot. Docker 1.71 had some problems with some python 2.6 syntax.We will install the docker engine available from the CentOS Base repository. The service is on, and we have configured it to run on startup.Įdit (May 10): It looks like elabFTW requires Docker 1.9 or higher. So now we have successfully installed Docker-io on CentOS 6.8 by installing the EPEL repository. Now to start it and have it autostart after boot.I can get the package by installing the EPEL release like so:.EPEL has docker 1.7 (called docker-io) here: Since Docker CE/EE can’t be installed on CentOS 7, we can install an older version sourced from EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux). Install Docker CE, configure it to start, and start the service.

You can follow the tutorial here for installing Docker CE. Below are the commands to setting up the Docker CE repo, and installing docker-ce: See below for installing Docker 1.7 on CentOS 6 Note: Docker CE/EE does not install on CentOS 6. These are called electronic lab notebooks (ELN), and both of these take advantage of Docker. I’m installing Docker in order to try out sciNote and elabFTW, as well as to learn Docker and containerization. There are more functionalities available, such as resource management and performance monitoring - but these won’t be covered in this tutorial. (That’s why their logo is a whale with shipping containers!). Docker is a software that builds containers, which is a self-contained entity that can consist of pre-loaded software, configurations, libraries, environments in order to rapidly deploy the software on platforms that supports Docker.
