Open a PowerShell, and initialize Docker Swarm mode
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```console
$ docker swarm init
```
If all goes well, you should see a message similar to the following
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```shell
Swarm initialized: current node (tjjggogqpnpj2phbfbz8jd5oq) is now a manager.
To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:
docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-3e0hh0jd5t4yjg209f4g5qpowbsczfahv2dea9a1ay2l8787cf-2h4ly330d0j917ocvzw30j5x9 192.168.65.3:2377
To add a manager to this swarm, run 'docker swarm join-token manager' and follow the instructions.
```
Run a simple Docker service that uses an alpine-based filesystem, and isolates a ping to 8.8.8.8
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```console
$ docker service create --name demo alpine:latest ping 8.8.8.8
```
Check that your service created one running container
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```console
$ docker service ps demo
```
You should see something like
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```shell
ID NAME IMAGE NODE DESIRED STATE CURRENT STATE ERROR PORTS
463j2s3y4b5o demo.1 alpine:latest docker-desktop Running Running 8 seconds ago
```
Check that you get the logs you'd expect for a ping process
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```console
$ docker service logs demo
```
You should see the output of a healthy ping process
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```shell
demo.1.463j2s3y4b5o@docker-desktop | PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes
demo.1.463j2s3y4b5o@docker-desktop | 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: seq=0 ttl=37 time=13.005 ms
demo.1.463j2s3y4b5o@docker-desktop | 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: seq=1 ttl=37 time=13.847 ms
demo.1.463j2s3y4b5o@docker-desktop | 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: seq=2 ttl=37 time=41.296 ms
...
```
Finally, tear down your test service
Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):
```console
$ docker service rm demo
```
