The required setting consists of two steps: So you cannot simply mount your Windows directory to your container inside Docker. Users on Windows have one more virtualization layer (VirtualBox) between their running containers inside Docker VM (Boot2Docker) and Windows. The Docker VM is a normal VM created inside VirtualBox and you are able to change all its settings in the Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager (as I said, memory, CPUs, Network, Storages etc.), see Figure 2.įigure 2: VirtualBox interface Access Windows directories directly from any Docker container.You can use the boot2docker config command to generate a configuration file which you can edit and set a lot of parameters related to the VM with Boot2Docker - no more available via Docker Machine.or simply know where all data related to containers are saved. ![]() change a network connectivity either to your Windows or to the internet,.Allocate more memory or CPUs to your VM,.The used VirtualBox is completely hidden behind Docker Machine API and you usually do not need to know anymore. If you do not know what I mean, visit my another post about Docker architecture on Windows first. The installation process of Docker on Windows automatically creates a new lightweight virtual machine (VM of Boot2Docker) inside VirtualBox. Configure your Docker Machine (old Boot2Docker) inside Virtual Box NOTE: If you do not know, how to add a new record to your etc/hosts file, check this tutorial. Which makes your life easier, see Figure 1.įigure 1: Example of a new record in etc/hosts
