Generic

Create machines using an existing VM/Host with SSH.

This is useful if you are using a provider that Machine does not support directly or if you would like to import an existing host to allow Docker Machine to manage.

Options:

  • --generic-ip-address: required IP Address of host.
  • --generic-ssh-user: SSH username used to connect.
  • --generic-ssh-key: Path to the SSH user private key.
  • --generic-ssh-port: Port to use for SSH.

Note

: You must use a base operating system supported by Machine.

Environment variables and default values:

CLI option Environment variable Default
--generic-ip-address - -
--generic-ssh-user - root
--generic-ssh-key - $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
--generic-ssh-port - 22
