## Examples
|
|
|
|
### Scale a service
|
|
|
|
The scale command enables you to scale one or more replicated services either up
|
|
or down to the desired number of replicas. This command cannot be applied on
|
|
services which are global mode. The command will return immediately, but the
|
|
actual scaling of the service may take some time. To stop all replicas of a
|
|
service while keeping the service active in the swarm you can set the scale to 0.
|
|
|
|
For example, the following command scales the "frontend" service to 50 tasks.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ docker service scale frontend=50
|
|
frontend scaled to 50
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The following command tries to scale a global service to 10 tasks and returns an error.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ docker service create --mode global --name backend backend:latest
|
|
b4g08uwuairexjub6ome6usqh
|
|
$ docker service scale backend=10
|
|
backend: scale can only be used with replicated mode
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Directly afterwards, run `docker service ls`, to see the actual number of
|
|
replicas.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ docker service ls --filter name=frontend
|
|
|
|
ID NAME MODE REPLICAS IMAGE
|
|
3pr5mlvu3fh9 frontend replicated 15/50 nginx:alpine
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also scale a service using the [`docker service update`](service_update.md)
|
|
command. The following commands are equivalent:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ docker service scale frontend=50
|
|
$ docker service update --replicas=50 frontend
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Scale multiple services
|
|
|
|
The `docker service scale` command allows you to set the desired number of
|
|
tasks for multiple services at once. The following example scales both the
|
|
backend and frontend services:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ docker service scale backend=3 frontend=5
|
|
backend scaled to 3
|
|
frontend scaled to 5
|
|
|
|
$ docker service ls
|
|
ID NAME MODE REPLICAS IMAGE
|
|
3pr5mlvu3fh9 frontend replicated 5/5 nginx:alpine
|
|
74nzcxxjv6fq backend replicated 3/3 redis:3.0.6
|
|
```
