In my last posting to docker swarm i created a swarm on virtualbox with alpine linux with a hdd footprint of 290MB per node:
There are some tutorials out there with running a
nginx or a
java webserver in a container but >100MB for each node seems far to much for my tests.
So i decided to create a application which listens on port 8080 with netcat. I created a directory ncweb with ncweb.sh:
ncweb# cat ncweb.sh
#!/bin/bash
sed -i 's/Hostname:.*/Hostname: '$HOSTNAME'/g' index.html
while true; do { echo -e 'HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n'; cat index.html;} | nc -l -p 8080; done 2&>1 >> logfile
and a index.html:
ncweb# cat index.html
<html>
<head>
<title>"Hello, World"</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=white>
<table border="0" cellpadding="10">
<tr>
<td>
<h1>"Hello, World"</h1>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
The Dockerfile looks like this:
# cat Dockerfile
FROM alpine
WORKDIR /tmp
ADD . /tmp
ENTRYPOINT [ "/tmp/ncweb.sh" ]
After that i created the container:
ncweb# docker build -t ncweb:0.2 .
Sending build context to Docker daemon 4.096kB

Removing intermediate container c1a9e8cee248
Successfully built 6880521f68e4
Successfully tagged ncweb:0.2
And let's do a test without docker swarm:
ncweb# docker run -p 8080:8080 ncweb
But running this as a service fails:
# docker service create --replicas=1 --name myweb ncweb:0.2
image ncweb:0.2 could not be accessed on a registry to record
its digest. Each node will access ncweb:0.2 independently,
possibly leading to different nodes running different
versions of the image.

Use `docker service ps n0himwum38bqzd8ob1vf8zhip` to check progress.

The error "No such image..." is happening, because the container ncweb is only in the repository of my master.
The easiest way for my test environment is to distribute the local image to all nodes:
# docker save ncweb:0.3 | ssh 192.168.178.47 docker load
The authenticity of host '192.168.178.47 (192.168.178.47)' can't be established.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes

root@192.168.178.47's password:
Loaded image: ncweb:0.3
(i have to distribute a ssh-key to all nodes)
and then:
alpine:~/ncweb# docker service create --replicas=1 --name myweb ncweb:0.3
image ncweb:0.3 could not be accessed on a registry to record
its digest. Each node will access ncweb:0.3 independently,
possibly leading to different nodes running different
versions of the image.
# docker service ps myweb

in97xlc7azcw myweb.1 ncweb:0.3 node01 Running Running 8 seconds ago
So my nc-webserver runs on node01, but i can not access it there because i did not define any port mappings ;-(
But finally this command did the job:
# docker service create --replicas=1 --name myweb --publish 8080:8080 ncweb:0.3
image ncweb:0.3 could not be accessed on a registry to record
its digest. Each node will access ncweb:0.3 independently,
possibly leading to different nodes running different
versions of the image.

Remaining open points:
- Is it possible to do a failback or limit the number of a service per node?
- How to get a loadbalancing mechanism for a server application?
(load balancer needed?)
- What happens, if the manager fails / is shutdown?
