I am trying to launch a docker swarm cluster. I am using ubuntu as a VM on windows 10.

When I give below command, it gets stuck while waiting for an IP.

docker-machine create -d virtualbox --virtualbox-no-vtx-check manager1

Output

neeraj@neeraj-VirtualBox:~$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox --virtualbox-no-vtx-check manager1

Can someone please guide me in resolving this issue ?

Ubuntu Version - 18.04.1

I can see you are trying to use nested virtualization (the option --virtualbox-no-vtx-check) which is not yet supported by virtualbox. The solution would be to run docker-machine directly on windows, not in ubuntu VM.

Have you tried deleting both the .docker and .Virtualbox directories? If that doesn't work we can diagnose the problem further.
