space issue on docker devmapper and CentOS7

Question

I am learning docker and I am using v1.11.0 I am trying to install hadoop but devmapper is complaining about free disk space?

devmapper: Thin Pool has 82984 free data blocks which is less than minimum required 163840 free data blocks. Create more free space in thin pool or use dm.min_free_space option to change behavior

I have deleted all my images but the problem persists:

[root@localhost hadoop_docker]# docker images
REPOSITORY          TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED             SIZE
debian              latest              47af6ca8a14a        3 weeks ago         125 MB
[root@localhost hadoop_docker]#

and this is my disk configuration:

[root@localhost ~]# lsblk
NAME                       MAJ:MIN RM  SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda                          8:0    0    8G  0 disk

└─docker-253:0-844682-pool 253:2    0  100G  0 dm

QUESTION: How could I free up the disk space?

thank you

Answer 1

Just run these three. No need to remove RUNNING containers.

1. Cleanup exited processes:

   docker rm $(docker ps -q -f status=exited)
   

2. Cleanup dangling volumes:

   docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -qf dangling=true)
   

3. Cleanup dangling images:

   docker rmi $(docker images --filter "dangling=true" -q --no-trunc)
