docker-machine 是docker官方提供的docker管理工具。
通过docker-machine可以轻松的做到：
在Windows平台和MAC平台安装和运行docker
搭建和管理多个docker 主机
搭建swarm集群
环境win下面安装的virtualbox，virtualbox安装的centos7，网络模式NAT+hostonly
ip：192.168.56.102（hostonly）
1、安装docker-machine：
curl -L https://github.com/docker/machine/releases/download/v0.13.0/docker-machine-`uname -s`-`uname -m` >/tmp/docker-machine &&
chmod +x /tmp/docker-machine &&
sudo cp /tmp/docker-machine /usr/local/bin/docker-machine2、查看docker-machine版本：
# docker-machine version
[root@docker ~]# docker-machine version
docker-machine version 0.13.0, build 9ba6da93、在centos7环境下创建machine：
[root@localhost ~]# docker-machine create -d virtualbox default
Creating CA: /root/.docker/machine/certs/ca.pem
Creating client certificate: /root/.docker/machine/certs/cert.pem
Running pre-create checks...
Error with pre-create check: "VBoxManage not found. Make sure VirtualBox is installed and VBoxManage is in the path"但是却报错了，以为virtualbox安装的centos7环境支持的是virtualbox驱动，才发现环境安装支持virtualbox驱动
使用virtualbox驱动需要安装virtualbox，而Ubuntu的解决方法为：
于是采用generic驱动，具体介绍查看官网：https://docs.docker.com/machine/drivers/generic/
[root@localhost ~]# docker-machine create -d generic --generic-ip-address=192.168.56.102 --generic-ssh-key ~/.ssh/id_rsa --generic-ssh-user=root vm
Running pre-create checks...

Waiting for SSH to be available...
Error creating machine: Error detecting OS: Too many retries waiting for SSH to be available. Last error: Maximum number of retries (60) exceeded
--generic-ip-address=192.168.56.102：这里的ip是指本机，如果需要为其他远程docker主机安装可以改为其他docker主机ip（这里是本地创建docker-machine）
依然报错，这是由于docker-machine为本机创建machine时也需要进行ssh认证：
[root@localhost ~]# ssh-keygen
[root@localhost ~]# ssh-copy-id root@192.168.56.102将密码发给自己，然后重新继续创建machine：
[root@localhost ~]# docker-machine create -d generic --generic-ip-address=192.168.56.102 --generic-ssh-key ~/.ssh/id_rsa --generic-ssh-user=root vm

To see how to connect your Docker Client to the Docker Engine running on this virtual machine, run: docker-machine env vm于是终于创建machine成功了
查看docker-machine：
[root@localhost ~]# docker-machine ls
NAME ACTIVE DRIVER STATE URL SWARM DOCKER ERRORS
vm - generic Running tcp://192.168.56.102:2376 v17.09.0-ce
查看vm的环境变量：
[root@localhost ~]# docker-machine env vm
export DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY="1"
export DOCKER_HOST="tcp://192.168.56.102:2376"
export DOCKER_CERT_PATH="/root/.docker/machine/machines/vm"
export DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME="vm"
# Run this command to configure your shell:
# eval $(docker-machine env vm)
加载环境变量：
[root@localhost ~]# eval $(docker-machine env vm)利用ssh登录到machine中：
[root@localhost ~]# docker-machine ssh --help
Usage: docker-machine ssh [arg...]
Log into or run a command on a machine with SSH.
Description:
Arguments are [machine-name] [command]
[root@localhost ~]# docker-machine ssh vm
Last login: Sat Nov 4 17:55:53 2017 from 192.168.56.102
[root@vm ~]#
现在在本地环境创建一个容器启动：
[root@localhost ~]# docker run -d --name=nginx nginx
[root@localhost ~]# docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
6e62975fab90 nginx "nginx -g 'daemon ..." About a minute ago Up 59 seconds 80/tcp nginx
然后ssh远程到docker-machine中：
[root@localhost ~]# docker-machine ssh vm
Last login: Sat Nov 4 18:13:27 2017 from 192.168.56.102
[root@vm ~]# docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
6e62975fab90 nginx "nginx -g 'daemon ..." About a minute ago Up About a minute 80/tcp nginx
可以看见docker主机和docker-machine主机里面的容器id相同
利用docker-machine能够安装docker和创建容器
上面是本地为自己创建machine，现在为远程的docker主机创建docker-machine：
环境：centos7，192.168.101.14，vmware下面安装的docker以及docker-machine，为192.168.56.102这台docker主机创建machine：
（两个ip不同进行了转发所以可以访问（前面是vm下面的nat的静态ip，后面是virtualbox的两张网卡（nat和host only）））
1、首先将192.168.101.14和主机192.168.56.102进行ssh连接认证：
[root@docker ~]# ssh-keygen
[root@docker ~]# ssh-copy-id root@192.168.56.102
2、创建machine：
[root@docker ~]# docker-machine create -d generic --generic-ip-address=192.168.56.102 --generic-ssh-key ~/.ssh/id_rsa --generic-ssh-user=root default
Creating CA: /root/.docker/machine/certs/ca.pem
Creating client certificate: /root/.docker/machine/certs/cert.pem
Running pre-create checks...

Docker is up and running!
To see how to connect your Docker Client to the Docker Engine running on this virtual machine, run: docker-machine env default执行环境变量，进入到machine环境：
[root@docker ~]# docker-machine env default
[root@docker ~]# eval $(docker-machine env default)
3、查看创建的machine：
[root@docker ~]# docker-machine ls
NAME ACTIVE DRIVER STATE URL SWARM DOCKER ERRORS
default - generic Running tcp://192.168.56.102:2376 v17.09.0-ce 可以看见在192.168.101.14环境上为远程主机192.168.56.102创建的machine
4、创建容器：
[root@docker ~]# docker run -d --name=nginx nginx（本地没有nginx镜像）
b1f08986f6d5dbb1ede699e915bde734bab278fbe70f93af06ec2267fae2fef3
[root@docker ~]# docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
b1f08986f6d5 nginx "nginx -g 'daemon ..." 4 seconds ago Up 3 seconds 80/tcp nginx
5、ssh到machine：
[root@docker ~]# docker-machine ssh default
Last login: Sat Nov 4 18:51:49 2017 from 192.168.56.1
[root@default ~]# docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
b1f08986f6d5 nginx "nginx -g 'daemon ..." 23 seconds ago Up 22 seconds 80/tcp nginx现在查看远程主机是否创建了容器：
[root@localhost ~]# docker ps -a
could not read CA certificate "/root/.docker/machine/machines/default/ca.pem": open /root/.docker/machine/machines/default/ca.pem: no such file or directory报错原因：
由于刚刚在192.168.56.102为自己设置了machine，保留了之前machine的环境变量，虽然现在删除了，但是设置了环境变量，将刚刚设置的环境变量取消：
[root@localhost ~]# unset DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY
[root@localhost ~]# unset DOCKER_CERT_PATH
[root@localhost ~]# unset DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME
[root@localhost ~]# unset DOCKER_HOST
然后重新查看：
[root@localhost ~]# docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
b1f08986f6d5 nginx "nginx -g 'daemon ..." 8 minutes ago Up 8 minutes 80/tcp nginx可以发现，为远程主机创建容器成功
现在192.168.101.14上面存在镜像centos_nginx:v4，而远程主机192.168.56.102没有该镜像，现在创建容器，看是否远程主机能够创建成功？
[root@docker ~]# docker pull registry.cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/wadeson/jsonhc:v4
[root@docker ~]# docker images
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
nginx latest b72d63324dbb 13 hours ago 108MB
registry.cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/wadeson/jsonhc v4 6c5128aaff05 2 days ago 464MB
然后在远程主机查看：
[root@localhost ~]# docker images
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
nginx latest b72d63324dbb 13 hours ago 108MB
registry.cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/wadeson/jsonhc v4 6c5128aaff05 2 days ago 464MB可以看见两主机的镜像同步，也是容器也是同步的
vm下面的docker可以为virtualbox下面的docker创建容器
而更多的是本地可以为云等其他环境创建容器，通过docker-machine
在这之前192.168.101.14的images都不见了，那是因为设置machine环境变量：
unset DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY
unset DOCKER_CERT_PATH
unset DOCKER_MACHINE_NAME
unset DOCKER_HOST执行上面将machine的环境变量取消就可以返回原来的环境了：
[root@docker ~]# docker images
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
centos_init v1 383ff3502443 26 hours ago 448MB
centos_nginx v8 6f792dc07c35 2 days ago 464MB

centos_nginx v3 0e49a2c0562f 2 days ago 464MB
centos_nginx v2 2031faf8894a 2 days ago 464MB
centos_nginx v1 78d18f16e757 3 days ago 464MB
registry latest 2ba7189700c8 9 days ago 33.3MB
ubuntu latest 747cb2d60bbe 3 weeks ago 122MB
centos latest 196e0ce0c9fb 7 weeks ago 197MB而如果需要返回machine环境就继续执行machine环境变量就行，这种方式很好的隔离了本地和远程镜像和容器
