The DevOps 2.1 Toolkit: Docker Swarm

By: Viktor Farcic

Overview of this book

Viktor Farcic's latest book, The DevOps 2.1 Toolkit: Docker Swarm, takes you deeper into one of the major subjects of his international best seller, The DevOps 2.0 Toolkit, and shows you how to successfully integrate Docker Swarm into your DevOps toolset. Viktor shares with you his expert knowledge in all aspects of building, testing, deploying, and monitoring services inside Docker Swarm clusters. You'll go through all the tools required for running a cluster. You'll travel through the whole process with clusters running locally on a laptop. Once you're confident with that outcome, Viktor shows you how to translate your experience to different hosting providers like AWS, Azure, and DigitalOcean. Viktor has updated his DevOps 2.0 framework in this book to use the latest and greatest features and techniques introduced in Docker. We'll go through many practices and even more tools. While there will be a lot of theory, this is a hands-on book. You won't be able to complete it by reading it on the metro on your way to work. You'll have to read this book while in front of the computer and get your hands dirty.

Setting up a cluster


We’ll create a similar environment as we did in the previous chapter. We'll have three nodes which will form a Swarm cluster.

All the commands from this chapter are available in the 03-networking.sh (https://gist.github.com/vfarcic/fd7d7e04e1133fc3c90084c4c1a919fe) Gist.

By this time, you already know how to set up a cluster so we'll skip the explanation and just do it:

for i in123; do
  docker-machine create -d virtualbox node-$i
done

eval $(docker-machine env node-1)

docker swarm init \
  --advertise-addr $(docker-machine ip node-1)

TOKEN=$(docker swarm join-token -q worker)

for i in23; do
eval $(docker-machine env node-$i)

  docker swarm join \
    --token $TOKEN \
    --advertise-addr $(docker-machine ip node-$i) \
    $(docker-machine ip node-1):2377
done

eval $(docker-machine env node-1)

docker node ls

The output of the last command node ls is as follows (IDs were removed for brevity):

HOSTNAME  STATUS  AVAILABILITY  MANAGER STATUS
node-2    Ready   Active
