Docker Swarm 1.12 on VirtualBox
This post shows the steps I followed to run Docker Swarm 1.12 on VirtualBox.
Start the cluster
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox pi1
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox pi2
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox pi3
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox pi4
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox pi5
List the IP Addresses
for i in `seq 1 5`; do
echo "HOST: pi$i IP: $(docker-machine ip pi$i)";
done
Start Swarm Master
export SWARM_ID=$(docker-machine ssh pi1 docker swarm --advertise-addr=$(docker-machine ip pi1) init)
Start Agents
export SWARM_JOIN_CMD=$(docker-machine ssh pi1 docker swarm join-token worker | tail -n 4 | head -n 3 | tr --delete '\\')
for i in `seq 2 5`; do
docker-machine ssh pi$i $SWARM_JOIN_CMD
done
L#ist swarm nodes
eval $(docker-machine env pi1)
docker node ls
Exercise the swarm
eval $(docker-machine env pi1)
docker service create --name ping alpine ping 8.8.8.8
docker service ps ping
docker service update --replicas 10 ping
docker service rm ping
Shutdown the cluster
eval $(docker-machine env --unset)
docker-machine env --unset
for i in `seq 0 5`; do
docker-machine rm -y pi$i;
done
