Why cattle

  1. Swarm does not support scale command or API. Cattle support scale service with filters.
  2. Scale up is easy, but when some high priority service want to seize low priority resources, how to decide which service to scale down?
  3. Stop container after inform app.

Cattle solve those problems.

Special labels: Namespace, service, app

  • Namespace is a collection of containers or nodes. docker run -l namespace=swarm swarm:latest
  • Service is a collection of different kinds of containers. For example, you can define nginx,mysql,php container as the same service :docker run -l service=web-service ...
  • App is a collection of the same kind of containers. For example, you run 5 replication of nginx, all set the app=nginx label.

Container priority, min number

MIN_NUMBER is going to be discard, if you don't want your app to be seized, just set a priority=0

$ docker run -e PRIORITY=10 -e MIN_NUMBER=3 -l service=online --name nginx nginx:latest
$ docker run -e PRIORITY=1 -e MIN_NUMBER=1 -l service=offline --name nginx httpd:latest

Scale up or down

Scale up: suggest use docker compose service as a scale unit.

$ cattle scale [[env|label] filter number]
$ cattle scale -f service==online -n 5      # scale by service, which container has `-l service=online`
$ cattle scale -f name==nginx -n 5          # scale by container name, which container has `--name nginx`
$ cattle scale -f foo==bar -n 5             # scale by the label, just select a container has `foo=bar` label, and scale it(not all the containers!).

The same app will not scale up again, judged by label -l app=xxx:

Scale down:

$ cattle scale -f service==online -n -5

Filter: cattle scale complete compatible to swarm filter, just set ENV and labels to new container.

If the scale number < 0, will scale down containers on the node witch has storage=ssd label.

$ cattle scale -e constraint:storage==ssd -l app=scale-up-nginx -f service==online -n 5 

If the container set the ENV MIN_NUMBER=x, cattle will guarantee has x containers left after scale down.

Scale with constraint

scale up to nodes whatever you want, scale down containers on nodes you assign.

scale up nginx to node without GPU:

$ cattle scale -f app==nginx -e constraint:GPU!=true -n 5

only scale down nginx on centos7 node:

$ cattle scale -f app==nginx -e constraint:os==centos7 -n -5

Resource Seize

Resource Seize is complex, a Resource Seize scale task must has those argument:

  • constraint : what node resource you want to seize.
  • inaffinity : what container resource you want to seze.
  • applots : run how many container on one node.
  • priority : high priority can seize low priority resource.

If the free node is not enough( free-node-num * applots < need-scale-up-number), will tick the seize. What is a free node? The node don't have the inaffinity containers.

User affinity:xxx!=xxx will stop those containers witch priority is below then scale up service.

Suggest there are four nodes with GPU=true label in our cluster. There are 2 services: online and offline. The MIN_NUMBER of offline is 1, onlie has higher priority 1 and offline has lower priority 9.

Inform App Hook

Before stop a container, must inform it to do some clean work.

-e STOP_HOOK="www.iflytek.com/stop" \
-e WAIT_TIME=60s
     www.iflytek.com/stop           cattle
             |        PRE_STOP        |
             |<-----------------------|
             |     container info     | sleep 60s
             |                        |
             |       POST_STOP        | stop the container
             |<-----------------------|
             |    container info      |
             V                        V

applots support

$ docker run -l app=foo -e "applots=3" foo:latest

One host run less then 3 containers which has app=foo label. (app is a special label)

create containers with replication

$ docker run -e "replica=3" foo:latest

This command will create 3 containers using foo:latest image.

support task types

Scale up container has two types task currently. Create container or start a stoped container.

By default cattle create new container. If you don't want to create new containers, using -e TASK_TYPE=start

$ cattle scale -f key==value -e TASK_TYPE=start -n 5
$ cattle scale -f key==value -e TASK_TYPE=create -n 5

Scale down has many task types as well, cattle destroy containers by default, if you want stop container:

$ cattle scale -f key==value -e TASK_TYPE=stop -n -5
$ cattle scale -f key==value -e TASK_TYPE=destroy -n -5

TimeSlice

Container will stop or remove after TimeSlice.

$ cattle scale -f key==value -e TIMESLICE=2h -n 5 

This is usful for prevent high priority app don't release resource.

~~~task add and action~~~ multi scale instead

Add command not do tasks immediately, send request to manager when excute action command! this is useful for rolling update. manager will scale up and down alternately

$ cattle add -f app==foov2 -n 5
$ cattle add -f app==foov1 -n -5
$ cattle action

multi scale command line

Using ; to cut multiple scale command, or lets scale command support it

~~$ cattle multi -f app==foov2 -n 5;-f app==foov1 -n -5~~
$ cattle scale -f app==foov2 -n 5;-f app==foov1 -n -5

scale file

Scale file is a yaml config file. Touch a file named scale-file.yml:

version: v1
items:
    scaleUpFoov2:
        filters:
            - "app==foov2"
        number: 5
        labels: 
            - "key=value"
        envs:
            - "constraint:GPU==true"
        
    scaleDownFoov1:
        ...

At scale: default file name is scale-file.yml

$ cattle -f scale-file.yml scale

Let's run scale!!!

Using docker cli to scale!

know that scale is not a real image name, if cattle get a image named scale, just run scale action instead of create a real container!

so we can using docker cli, and need not to install cattle cli. It convenient. But not support scale file!

docker run scale -f ...

STOP_TIMEOUT

Timeout to stop a container in seconds. Default kill "SIGTERM" signal before stop container. Same as the docker stop -t 10, Seconds to wait for stop before killing it (default 10).

$ docker run -e STOP_TIMEOUT=10 nginx:latest

Warn: this env only useful for cattle scale command, if you use docker stop container will close immediately
