Problem with replication task: Docker keeps dataset busy

I have a replication task, which fails and then trows this up:

This is not very structured, but the last phrase seems to cause the problem:

cannot unmount ‘/mnt/.ix-apps/docker’: pool or dataset is busy Broken pipe.

Why would Docker get in the way of a replication task?

On the source? No idea.

On the destination? Destination datasets of a replication must be read only without active services using them.

Thanks, @pmh! I had to stop the Docker process with service docker stop. This has to be run with sudo.
