Change docker storage driver on Mac OS X

Leave a Comment

I installed the docker toolbox on my Mac OS X and I need to change the docker storage driver from aufs to devicemapper, because aufs causing problems.

I found the offical documentations of docker and tried it the way explained here, but DOCKER_OPTS="--storage-driver=devicemapper" doesn't work for me.

docker info still tells me Storage Driver: aufs.

I didn't managed to find the file located at /etc/default/docker as well.

For the record, I need to changed it in order to run CodeClimate CLI properly.

You can use the --engine-storage-driver flag when you create a new VM with docker-machine to choose a storage driver.

$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox \     --engine-storage-driver devicemapper \     foobarmachine
