Using Volume and Network plugins in Docker services

In swarm mode, it is possible to create a service that allows for attaching to networks or mounting volumes that are backed by plugins. Swarm schedules services based on plugin availability on a node.

Volume plugins

In this example, a volume plugin is installed on a swarm worker and a volume is created using the plugin. In the manager, a service is created with the relevant mount options. It can be observed that the service is scheduled to run on the worker node with the said volume plugin and volume. Note that, node1 is the manager and node2 is the worker.

  1. Prepare manager. In node 1:

    $ docker swarm init
    Swarm initialized: current node (dxn1zf6l61qsb1josjja83ngz) is now a manager.
    
  2. Join swarm, install plugin and create volume on worker. In node 2:

    $ docker swarm join \
    --token SWMTKN-1-49nj1cmql0jkz5s954yi3oex3nedyz0fb0xx14ie39trti4wxv-8vxv8rssmk743ojnwacrr2e7c \

    $ docker plugin install tiborvass/sample-volume-plugin

    Installed plugin tiborvass/sample-volume-plugin
    
    $ docker volume create -d tiborvass/sample-volume-plugin --name pluginVol
    
  3. Create a service using the plugin and volume. In node1:

    $ docker service create --name my-service --mount type=volume,volume-driver=tiborvass/sample-volume-plugin,source=pluginVol,destination=/tmp busybox top
    
    $ docker service ls
    z1sj8bb8jnfn  my-service   replicated  1/1       busybox:latest 
    

    docker service ls shows service 1 instance of service running.

  4. Observe the task getting scheduled in node 2:

    $ docker ps --format '{{.ID}}\t {{.Status}} {{.Names}} {{.Command}}' 
    83fc1e842599     Up 2 days my-service.1.9jn59qzn7nbc3m0zt1hij12xs "top"
    

Network plugins

In this example, a global scope network plugin is installed on both the swarm manager and worker. A service is created with replicated instances using the installed plugin. We will observe how the availability of the plugin determines network creation and container scheduling.

Note that node1 is the manager and node2 is the worker.

  1. Install a global scoped network plugin on both manager and worker. On node1 and node2:

    $ docker plugin install bboreham/weave2
    Plugin "bboreham/weave2" is requesting the following privileges:
    - network: [host]
    - capabilities: [CAP_SYS_ADMIN CAP_NET_ADMIN]
    Do you grant the above permissions? [y/N] y

    Status: Downloaded newer image for bboreham/weave2:latest
    Installed plugin bboreham/weave2
    
  2. Create a network using plugin on manager. On node1:

    $ docker network create --driver=bboreham/weave2:latest globalnet
    
    $ docker network ls
    NETWORK ID          NAME                DRIVER                   SCOPE
    qlj7ueteg6ly        globalnet           bboreham/weave2:latest   swarm
    
  3. Create a service on the manager and have replicas set to 8. Observe that containers get scheduled on both manager and worker.

    On node 1:

    $ docker service create --network globalnet --name myservice --replicas=8 mrjana/simpleweb simpleweb

```
  1. Scale down the number of instances. On node1:

    $ docker service scale myservice=0
    myservice scaled to 0
    
  2. Disable and uninstall the plugin on the worker. On node2:

    $ docker plugin rm -f bboreham/weave2
    bboreham/weave2
    
  3. Scale up the number of instances again. Observe that all containers are scheduled on the master and not on the worker, because the plugin is not available on the worker anymore.

    On node 1:

    $ docker service scale myservice=8
    myservice scaled to 8
