Driver options and operating system defaults (Machine)
Driver options and operating system defaults
When Docker Machine provisions containers on local network provider or with a remote, cloud provider such as Amazon Web Services, you must define both the driver for your provider and a base operating system. There are over 10 supported drivers and a generic driver for adding machines for other providers.
Each driver has a set of options specific to that provider. These options provide information to machine such as connection credentials, ports, and so forth. For example, to create an Azure machine:
Grab your subscription ID from the portal, then run docker-machine create
with these details:
$ docker-machine create -d azure --azure-subscription-id="SUB_ID" --azure-subscription-cert="mycert.pem" A-VERY-UNIQUE-NAME
To see a list of providers and review the options available to a provider, see the reference for that driver.
