Updates a service as described by the specified parameters. This command has to be run targeting a manager node. The parameters are the same as docker service create. Please look at the description there for further information.

Normally, updating a service will only cause the service's tasks to be replaced with new ones if a change to the service requires recreating the tasks for it to take effect. For example, only changing the --update-parallelism setting will not recreate the tasks, because the individual tasks are not affected by this setting. However, the --force flag will cause the tasks to be recreated anyway. This can be used to perform a rolling restart without any changes to the service parameters.

Examples

Update a service

$ docker service update --limit-cpu 2 redis

Perform a rolling restart with no parameter changes

$ docker service update --force --update-parallelism 1 --update-delay 30s redis

In this example, the --force flag causes the service's tasks to be shut down and replaced with new ones even though none of the other parameters would normally cause that to happen. The --update-parallelism 1 setting ensures that only one task is replaced at a time (this is the default behavior). The --update-delay 30s setting introduces a 30 second delay between tasks, so that the rolling restart happens gradually.

Adding and removing mounts

Use the --mount-add or --mount-rm options add or remove a service's bind-mounts or volumes.

The following example creates a service which mounts the test-data volume to /somewhere. The next step updates the service to also mount the other-volume volume to /somewhere-elsevolume, The last step unmounts the /somewhere mount point, effectively removing the test-data volume. Each command returns the service name.

  • The --mount-add flag takes the same parameters as the --mount flag on service create. Refer to the volumes and bind-mounts section in the service create reference for details.

  • The --mount-rm flag takes the target path of the mount.

$ docker service create \
    --name=myservice \
    --mount \
      type=volume,source=test-data,target=/somewhere \
    nginx:alpine \
    myservice

$ docker service update \
    --mount-add \
      type=volume,source=other-volume,target=/somewhere-else \
