Clean Docker Cache


Problem: You see a new release on the Quadric Software website, but stopping and starting your A3 services does not update to this release.

Solution 1: Check to see if your docker YAML file is hard-coded to a specific Docker release.

Solution 2: Clean Docker cache and try again.


Your docker YAML file contains information about the A3 docker container. By default, this file does not specify a Docker release but instead instructs docker to pull the latest at startup.

You can verify that your docker file uses default, factory logic by checking this KB.

After doing so, if you continue to have problems updating, you should clean your docker cache. First, use the menu command 3 to halt Alike services if they are running. Then use menu command 4 to drop to shell. Then type

sudo docker image prune -a -f

This will clean out old docker images and force your A3 to pull a docker image when you next start A3 services.
