Docker on RHEL 6 Cgroup mounting failing
I'm trying to get my head around something that's been working on a Centos+Vagrant, but not on our providers RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 (Santiago)). A sudo service docker restart hands this:
Stopping docker: [ OK ]
Starting cgconfig service: Error: cannot mount cpuset to /cgroup/cpuset: Device or resource busy
/sbin/cgconfigparser; error loading /etc/cgconfig.conf: Cgroup mounting failed
Failed to parse /etc/cgconfig.conf [FAILED]
Starting docker: [ OK ]
The service starts okey enough, but images cannot run. A mounting failed error is shown when I try. And the startup-log also gives a warning or two. Regarding the kernelwarning, centos gives the same and has no problems as Epel should resolve this:
WARNING: You are running linux kernel version 2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64, which might be unstable running docker. Please upgrade your kernel to 3.8.0.

Anyone had any success overcoming this problem or should I throw in the towel and wait for the provider to update to RHEL 7?
Answer
I have the same issue.
(1) check cgconfig status
# /etc/init.d/cgconfig status
if it stopped, restart it
# /etc/init.d/cgconfig restart
check cgconfig is running
(2) check cgconfig is on
# chkconfig --list cgconfig
cgconfig 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off
if cgconfig is off, turn it on
(3) if still does not work, may be some cgroups modules is missing. In the kernel .config file, make menuconfig, add those modules into kernel and recompile and reboot
after that, it should be OK
