Question
I have a physical host machine with Ubuntu 14.04 running on it. It has 100G disk and 100M network bandwidth. I installed Docker and launched 10 containers. I would like to limit each container to a maximum of 10G disk and 10M network bandwidth.
After going though the official documents and searching on the Internet, I still can't find a way to allocate specified size disk and network bandwidth to a container. I think this may not be possible in Docker directly, maybe we need to bypass Docker. Does this means we should use something "underlying", such as LXC or Cgroup? Can anyone give some suggestions?
How-To
I don't think this is possible right now using Docker default settings. Here's what I would try.
About disk usage:
You could tell Docker to use the DeviceMapper storage backend instead of AuFS. This way each container would run on a block device (Devicemapper dm-thin target) limited to 10GB (this is a Docker default, luckily enough it matches your requirement!).
According to this link, it looks like latest versions of Docker now accept advanced storage backend options. Using the devicemapperbackend, you can now change the default container rootfs size option using --storage-opt dm.basesize=20G (that would be applied to any newly created container).
To change the storage backend: use the --storage-driver=devicemapper Docker option. Note that your previous containers won't be seen by Docker anymore after the change.
About network bandwidth
You could tell Docker to use LXC under the hoods : use the -e lxc option. Then, create your containers with a custom LXC directive to put them into a traffic class :
Check the official documentation about how to apply bandwidth limits to this class. I've never tried this myself (my setup uses a custom OpenVswitch bridge and VLANs for networking, so bandwidth limitation is different and somewhat easier), but I think you'll have to create and configure a different class.
Note : the --storage-driver=devicemapper and -e lxc options are for the Docker daemon, not for the Docker client you're using when running docker run ...
