Check Docker Container Space

1. **Check Disk Usage by Docker**
This command gives a detailed breakdown of Docker disk usage:

docker system df

This will show:
– Space used by images
– Space used by containers
– Space used by volumes
– Space used by the build cache

2. **List All Containers with Their Sizes**
You can check the sizes of individual containers using:

docker ps -s

This will display running containers and their respective sizes.

3. **Inspect Disk Usage for Specific Containers**
If you want to inspect the disk usage of a specific container, use:

docker inspect <container_id>

4. **Free Up Space**
To clean up unused Docker resources (images, containers, volumes, and build cache):

docker system prune

Add the `-a` flag to also remove unused images:

docker system prune -a

⚠️ Use this command carefully, as it removes unused resources.

—

### **5. Verify Disk Space**
After completing any of the above steps, verify the disk space again:

docker system df

Let me know if you need further clarification or assistance!

—

### **1. Remove Unused Images**
You have **24 images**, but only **10 active** ones. The rest are unused and reclaimable (**2.451GB**). To remove these unused images:

docker image prune -a

This will delete all dangling and unused images.

—

### **2. Remove Unused Volumes**
You have **20 volumes**, but only **5 active** ones. The rest are reclaimable (**3.173GB**). To remove unused volumes:

docker volume prune

This will delete all unused volumes.

—

### **3. Remove Stopped Containers**
Your containers are all active, so there’s nothing to prune here. But if you stop containers in the future, you can clean them up with:

docker container prune

—

### **4. Clear Build Cache**
You have **6.857MB** of build cache, which is minor, but you can clear it to free up that space:

docker builder prune

—

### **5. Full Cleanup (Optional)**
If you want to perform a full cleanup of all unused resources in one go:

docker system prune -a --volumes

This command removes:
– Unused images
– Unused containers
– Unused volumes
– Build cache

—

### **6. Verify Space Freed**
After running the commands, check the updated disk usage:

docker system df

—

Let me know if you need help with anything else!

—

### **1. List All Docker Images**
Run this to see all images on your system:

docker images -a

You’ll see a list with columns like `REPOSITORY`, `TAG`, `IMAGE ID`, and `SIZE`.

—

### **2. Identify Unused Images**
To specifically see dangling images (unused images with no tags):

docker images -f dangling=true

For all unused images (not associated with any running containers):

docker images -q --filter "dangling=true"

—

### **3. Remove Unused Images**
If you want to remove all unused (dangling) images, run:

docker image prune

To remove all unused images, including those not currently used by any container (not just dangling), use:

docker image prune -a

—

### **4. Verify**
After cleaning, verify by running:

docker system df

Let me know if you find anything or if you need further assistance!

—

### **1. Check Docker Disk Usage**
Run the following command to see the current disk usage by Docker:

docker system df

This will display:
– Total disk space used by images, containers, volumes, and build cache.
– Reclaimable space.

—

### **2. Check Docker Disk Size (Docker Desktop)**
If you are using **Docker Desktop** (on Windows or macOS):
1. Open **Docker Desktop**.
2. Navigate to **Settings > Resources > Advanced**.
3. Check the **Disk Image Size** section. This shows the total allocated size for Docker.

—

### **3. Check Docker Storage Path and Space on Linux**
Docker stores its data under `/var/lib/docker` by default. You can check the size of this directory:

#### **a. Check the Total Size**

du -sh /var/lib/docker

#### **b. Check Available Disk Space**
Run the following to check disk space for the partition where Docker data is stored:

df -h /var/lib/docker

—

### **4. Change Docker Disk Size**
If the allocated space is insufficient:
– For Docker Desktop: Increase the disk size in **Settings > Resources > Advanced**.
– For Docker Engine (Linux): Move Docker’s data directory to a partition with more space or resize the current partition.

—

Let me know if you need help increasing Docker's disk size!

– **Total Size:** 37GB
– **Used:** 33GB
– **Available:** 1.7GB
– **Usage:** 96%

This means you're running low on disk space. To resolve this, you can either free up space or allocate more disk space to the partition. Here's how to proceed:

—

### **Option 1: Free Up Space**

1. **Prune Unused Docker Resources**
Clear unused images, containers, volumes, and cache:

docker system prune -a --volumes

2. **Inspect Disk Usage**
Check large folders under `/var/lib/docker`:

sudo du -sh /var/lib/docker/* | sort -h

This will show which subdirectories consume the most space.

3. **Remove Specific Docker Resources**
– **Remove old images:**

docker images -a

Identify old images and remove them:

docker rmi <image-id>

– **Remove unused volumes:**

docker volume prune

4. **Clear Build Cache**

docker builder prune

—

### **Option 2: Allocate More Disk Space**

#### **a. Resize the Partition**
If possible, resize the partition `/dev/sdb1` to add more space.

#### **b. Move Docker Storage**
Move Docker's storage directory to a larger partition or disk:
1. Stop Docker:

sudo systemctl stop docker

2. Create a new directory with more space:

sudo mkdir /new/docker/location

3. Move existing data:

sudo mv /var/lib/docker/* /new/docker/location/

4. Update Docker configuration:

sudo nano /etc/docker/daemon.json

Add or update:

{
     "data-root": "/new/docker/location"
   }

5. Restart Docker:

sudo systemctl start docker

—

### **Option 3: Verify Docker Disk Usage**
After freeing space or resizing, verify the usage:

docker system df
df -h /var/lib/docker

Let me know which solution you prefer or if you need further help!

– **Images:** 10 total, 10 active, 3.386GB (1.733GB reclaimable).
– **Containers:** 12 total, 12 active, 20.36MB (none reclaimable).
– **Local Volumes:** 20 total, 5 active, 5.626GB (3.173GB reclaimable).
– **Build Cache:** 0 bytes (clean).

—

### **Steps to Free Disk Space**

#### **1. Remove Unused Images**
There’s **1.733GB** of unused images that can be reclaimed:

docker image prune -a

#### **2. Remove Unused Volumes**
There’s **3.173GB** of unused volumes that can be reclaimed:

docker volume prune

—

### **Verify Disk Usage After Cleanup**
After performing the cleanup steps, check the updated space:

docker system df
df -h /var/lib/docker

If space is still low, consider increasing the partition size for `/dev/sdb1` or moving Docker's storage to a larger disk as outlined earlier. Let me know how it goes!

– **Total Size:** 37GB
– **Used:** 33GB
– **Available:** 2.4GB
– **Usage:** 94%

While the available space has slightly increased to **2.4GB**, you're still operating at a high usage level (94%), which can lead to issues. Here are some additional steps you can take to free up more space or increase your disk capacity:

### **Additional Cleanup Steps**

1. **Remove Unused Docker Images and Containers Again**
If you haven't already run these commands, do so:

docker system prune -a --volumes

2. **Check for Large Docker Resources**
Identify large images, volumes, or containers:

sudo du -sh /var/lib/docker/* | sort -h

3. **Remove Specific Images and Containers**
If you find large images or containers that you no longer need, you can remove them individually:
– List images:

docker images

– Remove specific images:

docker rmi <image-id>

– List containers:

docker ps -a

– Remove specific stopped containers:

docker rm <container-id>

4. **Remove Unused Volumes**
If you have volumes that aren't currently in use, you can remove them:

docker volume prune

### **Increase Disk Space**

If you've cleaned up but still need more space:

#### **1. Resize the Partition**
Consider resizing the partition `/dev/sdb1` if possible. This would involve using a partition manager like `gparted` on Linux.

#### **2. Move Docker Storage**
You can also consider moving Docker's data directory to a larger disk or partition. Refer to the previous instructions on how to do this.

### **Verify Again**
After performing additional cleanup, check the disk usage once more:

df -h /var/lib/docker

Let me know how it goes or if you need more assistance!

### **1. Check Docker Directory Existence**
First, ensure that the `/var/lib/docker` directory exists and is accessible:

ls -l /var/lib/docker

### **2. Check for Subdirectories**
If the directory exists, list its contents to see which subdirectories are present:

sudo ls -l /var/lib/docker

### **3. Check Docker Resource Sizes Again**
If the directory is accessible, run the disk usage command again, but specify the full path without the wildcard:

sudo du -sh /var/lib/docker/*

### **4. Check Disk Usage for Docker Specifically**
Alternatively, if you want to check the total disk usage for Docker without specifying the subdirectories, run:

sudo du -sh /var/lib/docker

### **5. Verify Docker Status**
Make sure the Docker service is running properly:

sudo systemctl status docker

If you encounter any issues with the directory or Docker itself, please share the error messages or outputs, and I can assist you further!

### **Understanding Docker Disk Usage**

– **15GB for `/var/lib/docker`:** This size includes all Docker resources such as images, containers, volumes, and build cache.
– **Used Space:** You mentioned earlier that the partition `/dev/sdb1` is showing **33GB used**, meaning Docker is consuming a significant portion of your disk space.

### **Steps to Free Up Space in Docker**

1. **Remove Unused Images:**
Since you have many images, it's helpful to remove any unused ones:

docker image prune -a

2. **Remove Stopped Containers:**
If you have any stopped containers, you can remove them:

docker container prune

3. **Remove Unused Volumes:**
Volumes can also take up a lot of space, especially if they store persistent data. Clean up unused volumes:

docker volume prune

4. **Remove Build Cache:**
Although your earlier check showed 0 bytes for build cache, ensure it’s clear:

docker builder prune

5. **Inspect Specific Directories:**
To find large directories within `/var/lib/docker`, you can inspect subdirectories:

sudo du -sh /var/lib/docker/* | sort -h

### **Alternative: Move Docker Data to a Larger Disk**

If you're still running low on disk space after cleanup:

1. **Identify a Larger Disk:** If you have a separate disk or partition with more space, consider moving Docker's data there.
2. **Stop Docker:**

sudo systemctl stop docker

3. **Move the Data:**
Move the existing Docker data to the new location:

sudo mv /var/lib/docker /new/docker/location

4. **Update Docker Configuration:**
Modify the Docker daemon configuration to point to the new data root. Edit or create `/etc/docker/daemon.json`:

{
     "data-root": "/new/docker/location"
   }

5. **Start Docker:**

sudo systemctl start docker

### Troubleshooting
If you still encounter issues connecting DDEV to Docker after following these steps, check the following:
– Ensure Docker is running: `sudo systemctl status docker`
– Check for any Docker errors: `sudo journalctl -u docker.service`

If you continue to have issues, please provide any error messages or outputs, and I can assist you further!

sudo systemctl status docker

This command will display the current status of the Docker service, including whether it is active (running) or inactive (stopped), as well as any recent logs or errors.

### **Interpreting the Output:**
– **Active (running):** This indicates that Docker is running correctly.
– **Inactive (dead) or Failed:** This indicates that the Docker service is not running. You may need to start it using:

sudo systemctl start docker

– **Logs:** The output will also show the most recent logs from the Docker service, which can help diagnose any issues.

If you encounter any issues or need further assistance, feel free to share the output, and I can help you troubleshoot!

### **1. Verify Docker Functionality**
Run a simple test to ensure Docker is functioning properly:

docker run hello-world

This command pulls a test image and runs it. If everything is set up correctly, you should see a message indicating that Docker is working.

### **2. Configure Your DDEV Project**
If you haven't already, navigate to your project directory and configure DDEV:

cd ~/path/to/your/project
ddev config

Follow the prompts to set up your project.

### **3. Start Your DDEV Project**
After configuring, start your DDEV project:

ddev start

### **4. Check DDEV Status**
Verify the status of your DDEV project:

ddev status

This command will provide information about your DDEV environment, including the URL and any running containers.

### **5. Additional Commands**
