Antonio, I gave a try on docker-1.9.1-15.el7.x86_64, there is no any value/string is showed in 'Backing Filesystem:' after step 6, just a confirmation, it should be an expected result, right?

# docker info|grep "Backing Filesystem"

 Backing Filesystem:

This is fxed in docker-1.10 not 1.9

Comment 8 Alex Jia 2016-04-29 10:43:39 UTC
The Backing Filesystem still is xfs after step 5 in Description w/ docker-latest 1.10.3-10 and 1.10.3-19

Ater step 5 in Description.

# docker-latest info|grep xfs
