## Warnings about kernel support
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If your operating system does not enable certain capabilities, you may see
|
||||||
|
warnings such as one of the following, when you run `docker info`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```none
|
||||||
|
WARNING: Your kernel does not support swap limit capabilities. Limitation discarded.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```none
|
||||||
|
WARNING: No swap limit support
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can ignore these warnings unless you actually need the ability to
|
||||||
|
[limit these resources](/engine/admin/resource_constraints.md), in which case you
|
||||||
|
should consult your operating system's documentation for enabling them.

Many of these features require your kernel to support Linux capabilities. To
|
||||||
|
check for support, you can use the
|
||||||
|
[`docker info`](/engine/reference/commandline/info.md) command. If a capability
|
||||||
|
is disabled in your kernel, you may see a warning at the end of the output like
|
||||||
|
the following:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```none

WARNING: No swap limit support
