Docker not freeing up diskspace even after deleting images (macosx)

[majuansari]

I did the following to delete images and reclaim disk space. But unfortunately its not working

$ df -h
Filesystem      Size   Used  Avail Capacity  iused ifree %iused  Mounted on
/dev/disk1     112Gi  111Gi  330Mi   100% 29237368 84358  100%   /

Then:

$ docker rm $(docker ps -aq)
$ docker rmi $(docker images -q)

But still it does not free up the disk space .

$ df -h
Filesystem      Size   Used  Avail Capacity  iused ifree %iused  Mounted on
/dev/disk1     112Gi  111Gi  329Mi   100% 29237470 84256  100%   /

Yes, we are planning to work on this, hoping to get it working for 1.13. A factory reset will free up the space, but obviously loses everything.

We have a tracking issue here docker/for-mac#371, so I am going to close this here as it is specific to the Mac not a general Docker issue.
