I need an advice for a trouble with "cf ic create volume" in bluemix for a days. I want to know the cause of the failure, whether bluemix's issue or issues in my setup procedure.

The command and response in the Docker Quickstart Terminal on Windows Server 2012R2:

     $ cf ic create volume testvol

Error response from daemon:

{
  "incident_id": "1455-1484451778.065-3843854",
  "code": "IC5051E",
  "description": "The image volume could not be retrieved. Verify that the image ID or name is correct.",
  "environment": "prod-dal09",
  "rc": "404",
  "host_id": "177",
  "type": "Infrastructure",
  "name": "ImageNotFound"
}

 FAILED
Command failed

Incident report on bluemix:

You are typing the wrong command to create the volume. The correct command to create a volume is:

$ cf ic volume create VOLUME_NAME

cf ic create will try to create a new container and it is expecting that volume is the image name, hence the error you are seeing.

You can see complete docs in the link below:

  • Thanks, There is an elementary mistake! The output of correct command is "ERROR-SoftLayerAPIError". Then, I create new account on Bluemix and try the command again. It is successful. I use this account. – Yoshio Ono Jan 17 '17 at 13:19
  • If you old account is not working I suggest you open a Bluemix support ticket per Ralph's instructions above. Also could you please accept the answer if solution worked for you? – Alex da Silva Jan 17 '17 at 16:38
