Quoting https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/dockerd/ :

overlay2.override_kernel_check

Overrides the Linux kernel version check allowing overlay2. Support for specifying multiple lower directories needed by overlay2 was added to the Linux kernel in 4.0.0. However, some older kernel versions may be patched to add multiple lower directory support for OverlayFS. This option should only be used after verifying this support exists in the kernel. Applying this option on a kernel without this support will cause failures on mount.

This is required to use overlay2 on Centos 7 with kernel 3.x.

@gdubicki gdubicki force-pushed the support-for-overlay2.override_kernel_check branch from cc43fc0 to fe180f3 Compare December 6, 2017 20:59
