$ sudo docker run --rm hello-world Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally latest: Pulling from library/hello-world c04b14da8d14: Pull complete Digest: sha256:0256e8a36e2070f7bf2d0b0763dbabdd67798512411de4cdcf9431a1feb60fd9 Status: Downloaded newer image for hello-world:latest Hello from Docker! This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly. To generate this message, Docker took the following steps: 1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon. 2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub. 3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the executable that produces the output you are currently reading. 4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it to your terminal. To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with: $ docker run -it ubuntu bash Share images, automate workflows, and more with a free Docker Hub account: https://hub.docker.com For more examples and ideas, visit: https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/

The docker
daemon binds to a Unix socket instead of a TCP port. By default that Unix socket is owned by the user root
and other users can access it with sudo
. For this reason, docker
daemon always runs as the root
user.
To avoid having to use sudo
when you use the docker
command, create a Unix group called docker
and add users to it. When the docker
daemon starts, it makes the ownership of the Unix socket read/writable by the docker
group.
Warning: The
docker
group is equivalent to theroot
user; For details on how this impacts security in your system, see Docker Daemon Attack Surface for details.
To create the docker
group and add your user:
Log into your machine as a user with sudo
or root
privileges.
Create the docker
group.
$ sudo groupadd docker
Add your user to docker
group.
$ sudo usermod -aG docker your_username
Log out and log back in.
This ensures your user is running with the correct permissions.
Verify that your user is in the docker group by running docker
without sudo
.
$ docker run --rm hello-world
Configure the Docker daemon to start automatically when the host starts:
$ sudo systemctl enable docker
You can uninstall the Docker software with yum
.
List the installed Docker packages.
$ yum list installed | grep docker docker-engine.x86_64 1.12.3-1.el7.centos @dockerrepo docker-engine-selinux.noarch 1.12.3-1.el7.centos @dockerrepo
Remove the package.
$ sudo yum -y remove docker-engine.x86_64 $ sudo yum -y remove docker-engine-selinux.noarch
This command does not remove images, containers, volumes, or user-created configuration files on your host.
To delete all images, containers, and volumes, run the following command:
$ rm -rf /var/lib/docker
Locate and delete any user-created configuration files.
