title: 'Use direct-lvm with the Device Mapper Storage Driver'
description: |-
To use Docker in production with the device mapper storage driver, the Docker
daemon should be configured to use direct-lvm instead of loopback device as
a storage. For setting up the LVM and configuring Docker, see the
{{{ weblink(link="https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/storagedriver/device-mapper-driver/", text="Docker Device Mapper Storage Documentation") }}}.
rationale: |-
For using Docker in production, the device mapper storage driver with loopback
devices is discouraged. The suggested way of configuring device mapper storage
driver is direct-lvm. Choosing the right storage driver and backing filesystem
is crucial to stability and performance.
