ViewsNo space left on device when pulling an image
Using Docker 1.13.0 (9795) under Windows 10 Build 14393, I'm getting "no space left on device" when trying to run the latest python image (which would be 3.6):
> docker run -it python
Unable to find image 'python:latest' locally
latest: Pulling from library/python

See 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin\docker.exe run --help'.
There's over 20 GB free on the hard drive, so I assume the problem is inside Docker's virtual machine. How do I access it to investigate disk usage and clean up if needed?
docker images and docker ps -a didn't identify anything large:
> docker images

d4w/nsenter latest 9e4f13a0901e 4 months ago 83.8 kB
> docker ps -a

Pulling separately didn't help:
> docker pull python

If you're using Docker Desktop on OSX (or similar), you can get around this by accessing the Preferences, increasing the base image size, and click "Apply and Restart"

you can use this command to see if you have hide images.
docker image ls -a
and if you want to remove all of them you can use this command :
docker rmi -f $(docker image ls -a -q)
you know sometimes images files are stored in hard disk and then it cause low capacity.

I encountered this error today.
docker prune, docker rmi ..., df -h , df -ih and so may good but the reason is docker devicemapper Base Device Size .
the docker info command give info about that.
I refer to this for a complete explanation.
however, these steps would solve the problem:
systemctl stop docker.service
dockerd --storage-opt dm.basesize=20G
(you should terminate the command with Ctrl+C)
service start docker
