Docker tab missing in create compute

Askenm

I am running databricks premium and looking to create a compute running conda. It seems that the best way to do this is to boot the compute from a docker image. However, in the ```create_compute > advanced``` I cannot see the the docker option nor can i see it in other tabs in the create compute. 

Am i missing permissions or shoud i alter some underlying configuration?

Hello @Askenm!

Have you enabled Databricks Container Services in your workspace settings?
Without enabling DCS, the Docker option wonโ€™t appear when you create a compute cluster.

For reference: https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/compute/custom-containers

Advika is correct, atabricks Container Services needs to be explicitly enabled for your workspace.

A workspace admin can enable it using the Databricks CLI with the following command:

databricks workspace-conf set-status \ --json '{"enableDcs": "true"}'
