Red Hat Enterprise Linux
========================
.. include:: install_header.inc
.. include:: install_unofficial.inc
Docker is available for **RHEL** on EPEL. These instructions should work for
both RHEL and CentOS. They will likely work with
other binary compatible EL6 version as well, but they haven't been tested.
Please note that this package is part of a `Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL)`_, a community effort to create and maintain additional packages for RHEL distribution.
Please note that due to the current Docker limitations Docker is able to run only on the **64 bit** architecture.
Installation
------------
1. First, you need to install the EPEL repository. Please follow the `EPEL installation instructions`_.
2. Next let's install the ``docker-io`` package which will install Docker on our host.
.. code-block:: bash
sudo yum -y install docker-io
3. Now it's installed lets start the Docker daemon.
.. code-block:: bash
sudo service docker start
If we want Docker to start at boot we should also:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo chkconfig docker on
4. Now let's verify that Docker is working.
.. code-block:: bash
sudo docker run -i -t mattdm/fedora /bin/bash
**Done!**, now continue with the :ref:`hello_world` example.
