You know the drill. We'll create a Swarm cluster and deploy a few stacks we are already familiar with. Once we're done, we'll have the base required for the exploration of the tasks at hand.
All the commands from this chapter are available in the 12-alert-instrumentation.sh Gist at (https://gist.github.com/vfarcic/8bafbe912f277491eb2ce6f9d29039f9).
chmod +x scripts/dm-swarm-12.sh ./scripts/dm-swarm-12.sh eval $(docker-machine env swarm-1) docker stack ls
We created the cluster and deployed three stacks. The output of the last command gives us the list of those stacks.
Now we're ready to explore how to scrape metrics from instrumented services.
