Hi,

I noticed that after rebooting my CentOS machine; the control center didn't work anymore. After manually try to start the docker service it ran in to a error. I took a look at the journalctl -xe and saw the following:

Mar 25 12:57:37 nl-mon-fra201 docker[2473]: time="2016-03-25T12:57:37.154732407+01:00" level=fatal msg="Error starting daemon: Insertion failed because databause is full: database or disk is full
Mar 25 12:57:37 nl-mon-fra201 systemd[1]: docker.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Mar 25 12:57:37 nl-mon-fra201 systemd[1]: Failed to start Docker Application Container Engine.

I googled on Error starting daemon: Insertion failed because databause is full: database or disk is full and noticed somebody talking about the /var/lib/docker that was 100%.

Did a df -h and saw indeed that my /var/lib/docker is 100%

Now the problem is; how can i clean it up Most sites are talking about invoking the docker but the docker won't run because the lack of freespace.

Anyone have an idea to fix this

Thanks in advance!

David

I just ran into this problem. I had installed docker and serviced, but did not configure docker correctly to use the correct thinpool.

Basically, I removed and recreated /var/lib/docker, recreated the symlink from /var/lib/docker/tmp to /tmp and restarted docker.

If you have some other storage, you can likely move the files around and create symlinks that point to the correct directories if you aren't using thin-pool storage already.

Docker will complain if you cahnge the storage location and type between restarts, so you will need to recreate /var/lib/docker in this case.
