Docker tmpfs volume and increasing size

I am starting a jenkins container like this, from a local repository:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v /home/docker:/var/jenkins_home 192.168.99.101:5000/jenkins

the output of my container filesystem is like this:

Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
none             19G  3.7G   14G  22% /
tmpfs           499M     0  499M   0% /dev
shm              64M     0   64M   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs           499M     0  499M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs           897M  801M   97M  90% /var/jenkins_home
/dev/sda1        19G  3.7G   14G  22% /etc/hosts

As can be seen, /var/jenkins_home is getting full. How can I increase the size of "tmpfs"?

When you start the container, folder /var/jenkins_home is mounted from your local host's /home/docker, as below option:

-v /home/docker:/var/jenkins_home

So if you clean the space in localhost:/home/docker, you will get more available space.
