Colima: increase docker image size limit

I’m running docker through colima and my total images size hit ~10GBs. I need to increase this size in order to continue.

Is there a way to define this somewhere in colima?

    I had the same issue and it is possible to customise Colima VMs CPU, Memory (GB) and Disk (GiB):

    colima start --cpu 4 --memory 4 --disk 100

    But it is weird because the documentation states:

    the default VM created by Colima has 2 CPUs, 2GiB memory and 60GiB
    storage

    Colima – Customizing the VM

    The default VM created by Colima has 2 CPUs, 2GiB memory and 60GiB storage.

    The VM can be customized either by passing additional flags to colima start. e.g. –cpu, –memory, –disk, –runtime. Or by editing the config file with colima start –edit.

    NOTE: disk size cannot be changed after the VM is created. From v0.5.3, disk size can be increased

    Customization Examples

    create VM with 1CPU, 2GiB memory and 10GiB storage.

    colima start --cpu 1 --memory 2 --disk 10

    modify an existing VM to 4CPUs and 8GiB memory.

    colima stop
colima start --cpu 4 --memory 8

    resize storage to 100 GB.

    colima stop
colima start --disk 100
