To get started with Docker Engine on Ubuntu, make sure youmeet the prerequisites, theninstall Docker.
To install Docker Engine, you need the 64-bit version of one of these Ubuntuversions:
Docker Engine is supported on x86_64
(or amd64
), armhf
, and arm64
architectures.
Older versions of Docker were called docker
, docker.io
, or docker-engine
.If these are installed, uninstall them:
It’s OK if apt-get
reports that none of these packages are installed.
The contents of /var/lib/docker/
, including images, containers, volumes, andnetworks, are preserved. If you do not need to save your existing data, and want tostart with a clean installation, refer to the uninstall Docker Enginesection at the bottom of this page.
Docker Engine on Ubuntu supports overlay2
, aufs
and btrfs
storage drivers.
Docker Engine uses the overlay2
storage driver by default. If you need to useaufs
instead, you need to configure it manually.See use the AUFS storage driver
You can install Docker Engine in different ways, depending on your needs:
Most usersset up Docker’s repositories and installfrom them, for ease of installation and upgrade tasks. This is therecommended approach.
Some users download the DEB package andinstall it manually and manageupgrades completely manually. This is useful in situations such as installingDocker on air-gapped systems with no access to the internet.
In testing and development environments, some users choose to use automatedconvenience scripts to install Docker.
Before you install Docker Engine for the first time on a new host machine, you needto set up the Docker repository. Afterward, you can install and update Dockerfrom the repository.
Update the apt
package index and install packages to allow apt
to use arepository over HTTPS:
Add Docker’s official GPG key:
Use the following command to set up the stable repository. To add thenightly or test repository, add the word nightly
or test
(or both)after the word stable
in the commands below. Learn about nightly and test channels.
Note: The
lsb_release -cs
sub-command below returns the name of yourUbuntu distribution, such asxenial
. Sometimes, in a distributionlike Linux Mint, you might need to change$(lsb_release -cs)
to your parent Ubuntu distribution. For example, if you are usingLinux Mint Tessa
, you could usebionic
. Docker does not offer any guarantees on untestedand unsupported Ubuntu distributions.
Update the apt
package index, and install the latest version of DockerEngine and containerd, or go to the next step to install a specific version:
Got multiple Docker repositories?
If you have multiple Docker repositories enabled, installingor updating without specifying a version in the
apt-get install
orapt-get update
command always installs the highest possible version,which may not be appropriate for your stability needs.
To install a specific version of Docker Engine, list the available versionsin the repo, then select and install:
a. List the versions available in your repo:
b. Install a specific version using the version string from the second column, for example, 5:18.09.1~3-0~ubuntu-xenial
.
Verify that Docker Engine is installed correctly by running the hello-world
image.
This command downloads a test image and runs it in a container. When thecontainer runs, it prints an informational message and exits.
Docker Engine is installed and running. The docker
group is created but no usersare added to it. You need to use sudo
to run Docker commands.Continue to Linux postinstall to allow non-privilegedusers to run Docker commands and for other optional configuration steps.
To upgrade Docker Engine, first run sudo apt-get update
, then follow theinstallation instructions, choosing the newversion you want to install.
If you cannot use Docker’s repository to install Docker Engine, you can download the.deb
file for your release and install it manually. You need to downloada new file each time you want to upgrade Docker.
Go to https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/dists/
,choose your Ubuntu version, then browse to pool/stable/
, choose amd64
,armhf
, or arm64
, and download the .deb
file for the Docker Engineversion you want to install.
Note: To install a nightly or test (pre-release) package,change the word
stable
in the above URL tonightly
ortest
.Learn about nightly and test channels.
Install Docker Engine, changing the path below to the path where you downloadedthe Docker package.
The Docker daemon starts automatically.
Verify that Docker Engine is installed correctly by running the hello-world
image.
This command downloads a test image and runs it in a container. When thecontainer runs, it prints an informational message and exits.
Docker Engine is installed and running. The docker
group is created but no usersare added to it. You need to use sudo
to run Docker commands.Continue to Post-installation steps for Linux to allownon-privileged users to run Docker commands and for other optional configurationsteps.
To upgrade Docker Engine, download the newer package file and repeat theinstallation procedure, pointing to the new file.
Docker provides convenience scripts at get.docker.comand test.docker.com for installing edge andtesting versions of Docker Engine - Community into development environments quickly andnon-interactively. The source code for the scripts is in thedocker-install
repository.Using these scripts is not recommended for productionenvironments, and you should understand the potential risks before you usethem:
root
or sudo
privileges to run. Therefore,you should carefully examine and audit the scripts before running them.This example uses the script at get.docker.com toinstall the latest release of Docker Engine - Community on Linux. To install the latesttesting version, use test.docker.com instead. Ineach of the commands below, replace each occurrence of get
with test
.
Warning:
Always examine scripts downloaded from the internet beforerunning them locally.
If you would like to use Docker as a non-root user, you should now consideradding your user to the “docker” group with something like:
Remember to log out and back in for this to take effect!
Warning:
Adding a user to the “docker” group grants them the ability to run containerswhich can be used to obtain root privileges on the Docker host. Refer toDocker Daemon Attack Surfacefor more information.
Docker Engine - Community is installed. It starts automatically on DEB
-based distributions. OnRPM
-based distributions, you need to start it manually using the appropriatesystemctl
or service
command. As the message indicates, non-root users can’trun Docker commands by default.
Note:
To install Docker without root privileges, seeRun the Docker daemon as a non-root user (Rootless mode).
If you installed Docker using the convenience script, you should upgrade Dockerusing your package manager directly. There is no advantage to re-running theconvenience script, and it can cause issues if it attempts to re-addrepositories which have already been added to the host machine.
Uninstall the Docker Engine, CLI, and Containerd packages:
Images, containers, volumes, or customized configuration files on your hostare not automatically removed. To delete all images, containers, andvolumes:
You must delete any edited configuration files manually.
You can configure automatic log upload for continuous reports in Cloud App Security using a Docker on an on-premises Ubuntu, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), or CentOS server.
OS:
Disk space: 250 GB
CPU: 2
RAM: 4 GB
Set your firewall as described in Network requirements
Note
If you have an existing log collector and want to remove it before deploying it again, or if you simply want to remove it, run the following commands:
The Log collector can successfully handle log capacity of up to 50 GB per hour. The main bottlenecks in the log collection process are:
Network bandwidth - Your network bandwidth determines the log upload speed.
I/O performance of the virtual machine - Determines the speed at which logs are written to the log collector's disk. The log collector has a built-in safety mechanism that monitors the rate at which logs arrive and compares it to the upload rate. In cases of congestion, the log collector starts to drop log files. If your setup typically exceeds 50 GB per hour, it's recommended that you split the traffic between multiple log collectors.
Go to the Automatic log upload settings page.
For each firewall or proxy from which you want to upload logs, create a matching data source.
Note
Integrating with secure transfer protocols (FTPS and Syslog – TLS) often requires additional settings or your firewall/proxy.
f. Repeat this process for each firewall and proxy whose logs can be used to detect traffic on your network. It's recommended to set up a dedicated data source per network device to enable you to:
Go to the Log collectors tab at the top.
Further deployment information will appear. Copy the run command from the dialog. You can use the copy to clipboard icon.
Export the expected data source configuration. This configuration describes how you should set the log export in your appliances.
Note
The following steps describe the deployment in Ubuntu.
Note
The deployment steps for other supported platforms may be slightly different.
Open a terminal on your Ubuntu machine.
Change to root privileges using the command: sudo -i
To bypass a proxy in your network, run the following two commands:
If you accept the software license terms, uninstall old versions and install Docker CE by running the commands appropriate for your environment:
Remove old versions of Docker: yum erase docker docker-engine docker.io
Install Docker engine prerequisites: yum install -y yum-utils
Add Docker repository:
Install Docker engine: yum -y install docker-ce
Start Docker
Test Docker installation: docker run hello-world
Remove old versions of Docker: yum erase docker docker-engine docker.io
Install Docker engine prerequisites:
Add Docker repository:
Install dependencies:
Install Docker engine: sudo yum install docker-ce
Start Docker
Test Docker installation: docker run hello-world
Remove the container-tools module: yum module remove container-tools
Add the Docker CE repository: yum-config-manager --add-repo https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo
Modify the yum repo file to use CentOS 8/RHEL 8 packages: sed -i s/7/8/g /etc/yum.repos.d/docker-ce.repo
Install Docker CE: yum install docker-ce
Start Docker
Test Docker installation: docker run hello-world
Remove old versions of Docker: apt-get remove docker docker-engine docker.io
If you are installing on Ubuntu 14.04, install the linux-image-extra package.
Install Docker engine prerequisites:
Verify that the apt-key fingerprint UID is docker@docker.com: apt-key fingerprint | grep uid
Install Docker engine:
Test Docker installation: docker run hello-world
Deploy the collector image on the hosting machine by importing the collector configuration. Import the configuration by copying the run command generated in the portal. If you need to configure a proxy, add the proxy IP address and port number. For example, if your proxy details are 192.168.10.1:8080, your updated run command is:
Verify that the collector is running properly with the following command: docker logs <collector_name>
You should see the message: Finished successfully!
Configure your network firewalls and proxies to periodically export logs to the dedicated Syslog port or the FTP directory according to the directions in the dialog. For example:
Check the collector status in the Log collector table and make sure the status is Connected. If it's Created, it's possible the log collector connection and parsing haven't completed.
You can also go to the Governance log and verify that logs are being periodically uploaded to the portal.
Alternatively, you can check the log collector status from within the docker container using the following commands:
docker exec -it <Container Name> bash
collector_status -p
If you have problems during deployment, see Troubleshooting Cloud Discovery.
Verify that the logs are being uploaded to Cloud App Security and that reports are generated. After verification, create custom reports. You can create custom discovery reports based on Azure Active Directory user groups. For example, if you want to see the cloud use of your marketing department, import the marketing group using the import user group feature. Then create a custom report for this group. You can also customize a report based on IP address tag or IP address ranges.
