Multiplatform Docker Swarm

Set up a 2-node multiplatform Docker swarm, running one Linux node as the master and one Windows node.

The Windows node runs Windows Server 2016.

Includes provisioners for Virtualbox and Hyper-V

Usage:

  vagrant up

This should start two containers, both already joined to a Docker swarm.

Due to limitations of how VMWare and Docker work, it's not possible to assign them predictable IPs. (Docker on Windows currently doesn't network properly over a second network adapter)

Use vagrant ssh master and ifconfig to find out the master IP. The Linux node will be the master, and the Windows node will be a worker.

Running docker service ps will show one Portainer service which will be running on the swarm master. You can access this over http://master-ip:9000

To communicate with the swarm master via the command-line, you must first set your DOCKER_HOST environment variable to point to its IP address.

For example:

export DOCKER_HOST=192.168.34.10
docker ps

would list the containers running on the host.
