#8147 Cleanup old build images on our Prod/Stg OpenShift.
Closed: Fixed 4 years ago by cverna. Opened 4 years ago by cverna.

Quite often we have new build failing because we run out of space (for example see https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/8146).

We need a cronjob to do some cleaning base on the date of the image. We could keep all the build images that are less than 1 month old for example

Note that the two commands I used for this are in root history on all the nodes. Basically a docker image list and then a docker rmi shouldn't be too hard to script.

Yes I saw that :-), we could also use docker to cleanup all the "dangling" images (ie images that are not currently used by the docker daemon.
But I am not sure how that would impact the possibility to rollback to a previous image. I believe that each image successfully built is pushed to the internal registry so cleaning up images on each node should be fine.

@kevin what do you think about it ?

The command to remove dangling images is docker rmi $(docker images --filter dangling=true -q).

Sure. +1 to give it a try...
