Nextflow Docker thin pool error

Ask for help
1

Hi,

I submitted a list of 12 samples to be run on my PacBio HiFi nextflow pipeline
It involves read alignment, variant calling, CNV, structural variant calling. I submit it from my local machine, with the executor type being aws batch in my config. Things were going. fine, but then I got this error regarding Docker. I know this is not a Nextlfow issue per se, but I don’t even know where to start in trying to resolve this:

ERROR ~ Error executing process > 'pbmm2_align (sample102-0018)'

Caused by:
  Task failed to start - CannotCreateContainerError: Error response from daemon: devmapper: Thin Pool has 6680 free data blocks which is less than minimum required 50584 free data blocks. Create more free space in thin pool or use dm.min_free_space option to change behavior

Based on a Google search I just did, this seems to be a solution to your issue on AWS: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/CannotCreateContainerError.html

Somehow I missed that, thank you. I will try and implement the suggestions in the AWS docs.
