Creating the cluster and deploying services

You know the drill. We'll create a Swarm cluster and deploy a few stacks we are already familiar with. Once we're done, we'll have the base required for the exploration of the tasks at hand.

chmod +x scripts/dm-swarm-12.sh 
 
./scripts/dm-swarm-12.sh 
 
eval $(docker-machine env swarm-1) 
 
docker stack ls 

We created the cluster and deployed three stacks. The output of the last command gives us the list of those stacks.

Now we're ready to explore how to scrape metrics from instrumented services.
