Drew Erny 9375644e34 Add jobs support to CLI
* Added two new modes accepted by the `--mode` flag
  * `replicated-job` creates a replicated job
  * `global-job` creates a global job.
* When using `replicated-job` mode, the `replicas` flag sets the
  `TotalCompletions` parameter of the job. This is the total number of
  tasks that will run
* Added a new flag, `max-concurrent`, for use with `replicated-job`
  mode. This flag sets the `MaxConcurrent` parameter of the job, which
  is the maximum number of replicas the job will run simultaneously.
* When using `replicated-job` or `global-job` mode, using any of the
  update parameter flags will result in an error, as jobs cannot be
  updated in the traditional sense.
* Updated the `docker service ls` UI to include the completion status
  (completed vs total tasks) if the service is a job.
* Updated the progress bars UI for service creation and update to
  support jobs. For jobs, there is displayed a bar covering the overall
  progress of the job (the number of tasks completed over the total
  number of tasks to complete).
* Added documentation explaining the use of the new flags, and of jobs
  in general.

service scale The service scale command description and usage service, scale

service scale

Usage:  docker service scale [OPTIONS] SERVICE=REPLICAS [SERVICE=REPLICAS...]

Scale one or multiple replicated services

Options:
  -d, --detach                             Exit immediately instead of waiting for the service to converge (default true)
      --help   Print usage

Description

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.

Note

This is a cluster management command, and must be executed on a swarm manager node. To learn about managers and workers, refer to the Swarm mode section in the documentation.

Examples

Scale a single service

The following command scales the "frontend" service to 50 tasks.

$ 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

$ docker service scale backend=10

backend: scale can only be used with replicated or replicated-job mode

Directly afterwards, run docker service ls, to see the actual number of replicas.

$ 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 command. The following commands are equivalent:

$ 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:

$ 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
