      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Run a step on a self hosted Linux Docker runner.
      2. Observe if the step errors.

      Actual Results

      1. step errors before the build script is executed.

      Workaround

      1. Re-run step: The Step can be re-run.
      2. Increase the amount of CPU/disk/memory resources allocated to the self hosted runner - the root cause is a delay in Docker creating the container - ensuring Docker has adequate CPU, memory and minimal disk contention may reduce the frequency of this error.
