# Install Docker for Kata Containers on RHEL
|
|
|
|
> **Note:**
|
|
>
|
|
> - This guide assumes you have
|
|
> [already installed the Kata Containers packages](../rhel-installation-guide.md).
|
|
|
|
1. Install the latest version of Docker with the following commands:
|
|
|
|
> **Notes:**
|
|
>
|
|
> - This step is only required if Docker is not installed on the system.
|
|
> - Docker version 18.09 [removed devicemapper support](https://github.com/kata-containers/documentation/issues/373).
|
|
> If you wish to use a block based backend, see the options listed on https://github.com/kata-containers/documentation/issues/407.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ export rhel_devtoolset_version="7"
|
|
$ sudo subscription-manager repos --enable=rhel-${rhel_devtoolset_version}-server-extras-rpms
|
|
$ sudo yum -y install docker && systemctl enable --now docker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For more information on installing Docker please refer to the
|
|
[Docker Guide](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux_atomic_host/7/html-single/getting_started_with_containers/#getting_docker_in_rhel_7).
|
|
|
|
2. Configure Docker to use Kata Containers by default with **ONE** of the following methods:
|
|
|
|
1. systemd (this is the default and is applied automatically if you select the
|
|
[automatic installation](https://github.com/kata-containers/documentation/tree/master/install#automatic-installation) option)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/
|
|
$ cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/kata-containers.conf
|
|
[Service]
|
|
ExecStart=
|
|
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd -D --add-runtime kata-runtime=/usr/bin/kata-runtime --default-runtime=kata-runtime
|
|
EOF
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Docker `daemon.json`
|
|
|
|
Create docker configuration folder.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/docker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add the following definitions to `/etc/docker/daemon.json`:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"default-runtime": "kata-runtime",
|
|
"runtimes": {
|
|
"kata-runtime": {
|
|
"path": "/usr/bin/kata-runtime"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Restart the Docker systemd service with the following commands:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
|
$ sudo systemctl restart docker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. Run Kata Containers
|
|
|
|
You are now ready to run Kata Containers:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ sudo docker run busybox uname -a
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The previous command shows details of the kernel version running inside the
|
|
container, which is different to the host kernel version.
