Run Docker Engine in swarm mode

Table of contents

When you first install and start working with Docker Engine, Swarm mode is disabled by default. When you enable Swarm mode, you work with the concept of services managed through the docker service command.

There are two ways to run the engine in Swarm mode:

When you run the engine in Swarm mode on your local machine, you can create and test services based upon images you've created or other available images. In your production environment, Swarm mode provides a fault-tolerant platform with cluster management features to keep your services running and available.

These instructions assume you have installed the Docker Engine on a machine to serve as a manager node in your swarm.

If you haven't already, read through the Swarm mode key concepts and try the Swarm mode tutorial.

Create a swarm

When you run the command to create a swarm, Docker Engine starts running in Swarm mode.

Run docker swarm init to create a single-node swarm on the current node. The engine sets up the swarm as follows:

  • Switches the current node into Swarm mode.
  • Creates a swarm named default.
  • Designates the current node as a leader manager node for the swarm.
  • Names the node with the machine hostname.
  • Configures the manager to listen on an active network interface on port `2377``.
  • Sets the current node to Active availability, meaning it can receive tasks from the scheduler.
  • Starts an internal distributed data store for Engines participating in the swarm to maintain a consistent view of the swarm and all services running on it.
  • By default, generates a self-signed root CA for the swarm.
  • By default, generates tokens for worker and manager nodes to join the swarm.
  • Creates an overlay network named ingress for publishing service ports external to the swarm.
  • Creates an overlay default IP addresses and subnet mask for your networks

The output for docker swarm init provides the connection command to use when you join new worker nodes to the swarm:

$ docker swarm init
Swarm initialized: current node (dxn1zf6l61qsb1josjja83ngz) is now a manager.

To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:

    docker swarm join \
    --token SWMTKN-1-49nj1cmql0jkz5s954yi3oex3nedyz0fb0xx14ie39trti4wxv-8vxv8rssmk743ojnwacrr2e7c \
    192.168.99.100:2377

To add a manager to this swarm, run 'docker swarm join-token manager' and follow the instructions.

Configuring default address pools

By default Swarm mode uses a default address pool 10.0.0.0/8 for global scope (overlay) networks. Every network that does not have a subnet specified will have a subnet sequentially allocated from this pool. In some circumstances it may be desirable to use a different default IP address pool for networks.

For example, if the default 10.0.0.0/8 range conflicts with already allocated address space in your network, then it is desirable to ensure that networks use a different range without requiring swarm users to specify each subnet with the --subnet command.

To configure custom default address pools, you must define pools at swarm initialization using the --default-addr-pool command line option. This command line option uses CIDR notation for defining the subnet mask. To create the custom address pool for Swarm, you must define at least one default address pool, and an optional default address pool subnet mask. For example, for the 10.0.0.0/27, use the value 27.

Docker allocates subnet addresses from the address ranges specified by the --default-addr-pool option. For example, a command line option --default-addr-pool 10.10.0.0/16 indicates that Docker will allocate subnets from that /16 address range. If --default-addr-pool-mask-len were unspecified or set explicitly to 24, this would result in 256 /24 networks of the form 10.10.X.0/24.

The subnet range comes from the --default-addr-pool, (such as 10.10.0.0/16). The size of 16 there represents the number of networks one can create within that default-addr-pool range. The --default-addr-pool option may occur multiple times with each option providing additional addresses for docker to use for overlay subnets.

The format of the command is:

$ docker swarm init --default-addr-pool <IP range in CIDR> [--default-addr-pool <IP range in CIDR> --default-addr-pool-mask-length <CIDR value>]

The command to create a default IP address pool with a /16 (class B) for the 10.20.0.0 network looks like this:

$ docker swarm init --default-addr-pool 10.20.0.0/16

The command to create a default IP address pool with a /16 (class B) for the 10.20.0.0 and 10.30.0.0 networks, and to create a subnet mask of /26 for each network looks like this:

$ docker swarm init --default-addr-pool 10.20.0.0/16 --default-addr-pool 10.30.0.0/16 --default-addr-pool-mask-length 26

In this example, docker network create -d overlay net1 will result in 10.20.0.0/26 as the allocated subnet for net1, and docker network create -d overlay net2 will result in 10.20.0.64/26 as the allocated subnet for net2. This continues until all the subnets are exhausted.

Refer to the following pages for more information:

  • Swarm networking for more information about the default address pool usage
  • docker swarm init CLI reference for more detail on the --default-addr-pool flag.

Configure the advertise address

Manager nodes use an advertise address to allow other nodes in the swarm access to the Swarmkit API and overlay networking. The other nodes on the swarm must be able to access the manager node on its advertise address.

If you don't specify an advertise address, Docker checks if the system has a single IP address. If so, Docker uses the IP address with the listening port 2377 by default. If the system has multiple IP addresses, you must specify the correct --advertise-addr to enable inter-manager communication and overlay networking:

$ docker swarm init --advertise-addr <MANAGER-IP>

You must also specify the --advertise-addr if the address where other nodes reach the first manager node is not the same address the manager sees as its own. For instance, in a cloud setup that spans different regions, hosts have both internal addresses for access within the region and external addresses that you use for access from outside that region. In this case, specify the external address with --advertise-addr so that the node can propagate that information to other nodes that subsequently connect to it.

Refer to the docker swarm init CLI reference for more detail on the advertise address.

View the join command or update a swarm join token

Nodes require a secret token to join the swarm. The token for worker nodes is different from the token for manager nodes. Nodes only use the join-token at the moment they join the swarm. Rotating the join token after a node has already joined a swarm does not affect the node's swarm membership. Token rotation ensures an old token cannot be used by any new nodes attempting to join the swarm.

To retrieve the join command including the join token for worker nodes, run:

$ docker swarm join-token worker

To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:

    docker swarm join \
    --token SWMTKN-1-49nj1cmql0jkz5s954yi3oex3nedyz0fb0xx14ie39trti4wxv-8vxv8rssmk743ojnwacrr2e7c \
    192.168.99.100:2377

This node joined a swarm as a worker.

To view the join command and token for manager nodes, run:

$ docker swarm join-token manager

To add a manager to this swarm, run the following command:

    docker swarm join \
    --token SWMTKN-1-59egwe8qangbzbqb3ryawxzk3jn97ifahlsrw01yar60pmkr90-bdjfnkcflhooyafetgjod97sz \
    192.168.99.100:2377

Pass the --quiet flag to print only the token:

$ docker swarm join-token --quiet worker

SWMTKN-1-49nj1cmql0jkz5s954yi3oex3nedyz0fb0xx14ie39trti4wxv-8vxv8rssmk743ojnwacrr2e7c

Be careful with the join tokens because they are the secrets necessary to join the swarm. In particular, checking a secret into version control is a bad practice because it would allow anyone with access to the application source code to add new nodes to the swarm. Manager tokens are especially sensitive because they allow a new manager node to join and gain control over the whole swarm.

We recommend that you rotate the join tokens in the following circumstances:

  • If a token was checked-in by accident into a version control system, group chat or accidentally printed to your logs.
  • If you suspect a node has been compromised.
  • If you wish to guarantee that no new nodes can join the swarm.

Additionally, it is a best practice to implement a regular rotation schedule for any secret including swarm join tokens. We recommend that you rotate your tokens at least every 6 months.

Run swarm join-token --rotate to invalidate the old token and generate a new token. Specify whether you want to rotate the token for worker or manager nodes:

$ docker swarm join-token  --rotate worker

To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:

    docker swarm join \
    --token SWMTKN-1-2kscvs0zuymrsc9t0ocyy1rdns9dhaodvpl639j2bqx55uptag-ebmn5u927reawo27s3azntd44 \
