Let's install docker, from the install script, again.

This install script was hidding on the docker site, only listed on the CentOS/Red Hat  install pages

Even though it works well on Debian and Ubuntu.
So to keep it simple, stupid we are just going to run this script.
This is a fine example of groups not talking to each other. So lets start it

Start by loging into your docker host. and the sudo to root, then run the command

curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh

This will install everyhing. But we should review the switches for curl? Maybe.. why not

-f fail silently
-s silent
-S Show Error with -s only show errors when they occur
-L Follow redirects

So to review, fail silently, unless it shows errors, with silent output but be sure to follow the redirects

so the output from the script is here:

[root@docker02 ~]# curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh
+ sh -c 'sleep 3; yum -y -q install docker-engine'

If you would like to use Docker as a non-root user, you should now consider
adding your user to the "docker" group with something like:

  sudo usermod -aG docker your-user

Remember that you will have to log out and back in for this to take effect!

[root@docker02 ~]#

So we unbecome root at this point, and switch it to a standard user.
Why? Because of this bad security nightmare here:

sudo usermod -aG docker hifi

Once ytou do that command, you pretty much screw security out the window

Logout and log back in to refresh permissions

Then, start the docker service.

[hifi@docker02 ~]$ sudo service docker start
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start  docker.service

next if you want to test it run the hello-world

[hifi@docker02 ~]$ docker run hello-world
Unable to find image 'hello-world:latest' locally

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

[hifi@docker02 ~]$

you can see it ran with docker ps -a

[hifi@docker02 ~]$ docker ps -a

Remember, to search the other installation methods when you want to install this open source software.

If you watch the video, i felt bad that it was too short, so i added some fluiff on the end.
