Docker支持运行在以下CentOS版本：

CentOS 7.X

安装在二进制兼容的EL7版本如 Scientific Linux也是可能成功的，但是Docker

没有测试过并且不官方支持。

此文带你通过使用Docker管理的发行包和安装机制来安装。使用这些报能确保你使用最新的Docker版本。

如果你希望使用CentOS管理的包，请阅读你的CentOS文档。

要求

不过你的系统版本是多少，Docker都要求64位。并且当CentOS7时你的内核必须不小于3.10。

检查当前内核版本：

uname -r

3.10.0-229.el7.x86_64

建议将系统升级到最新。

安装

有两种方式可安装Docker Engine。脚本安装和yum安装。

脚本安装

1.使用root权限登陆系统。

2.更新系统包到最新。

# yum -y update

3.执行Docker安装脚本

# curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh

# yum install -y docker-selinux

这个脚本会添加docker.repo 配置并安装Docker。

4.启动Docker

# systemctl start docker.service

5.验证docker已经正常安装

# docker run hello-world

yum安装

1.使用root权限登陆系统。

2.更新系统包到最新。

# yum -y update

3.添加yum仓库

# cat >/etc/yum.repos.d/docker.repo <<-EOF
[dockerrepo]
name=Docker Repository
baseurl=https://yum.dockerproject.org/repo/main/centos/7
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://yum.dockerproject.org/gpg
EOF

4.安装Docker包

# yum install -y docker-engine
yum install -y docker-selinux

yum list installed | grep docker
docker-engine.x86_64             1.8.1-1.el7.centos                    @dockerrepo
docker-selinux.x86_64            1.7.1-108.el7.centos                  @extras

这里有个非常坑的情况，官方文档没有提到docker-selinux的安装，笔者在使用VirtualBox，配置一个桥接，一个Host-Only的网卡时，只安装docker-engine启动会报错，需要在安装docker-selinux方可。

可以看github上的两个issues，1.8.0: Systemd can’t start docker on Centos 7.1 #15498,Docker start times out if firewalld is started #13019。

5.启动Docker

# systemctl start docker.service

6.验证docker已经正常安装

# docker run hello-world

Hello from Docker.
This message shows that your installation appears to be working correctly.
To generate this message, Docker took the following steps:
1. The Docker client contacted the Docker daemon.
2. The Docker daemon pulled the "hello-world" image from the Docker Hub.
3. The Docker daemon created a new container from that image which runs the
executable that produces the output you are currently reading.
4. The Docker daemon streamed that output to the Docker client, which sent it
to your terminal.
To try something more ambitious, you can run an Ubuntu container with:
$ docker run -it ubuntu bash
