Is it safe to yum update docker-ce with containers running in swarm cluster?












0















I have three Scientific Linux (for this purpose, essentially CentOS) 7 machines configured as a Docker swarm. There is a pending update from docker-ce 18.06 to 18.09. Is it safer to do a process like this on each node in turn:




  • set node to "drain"

  • reassign leadership of the swarm if this node had it

  • do the update of the node

  • set the node back to "active"


Or is the RPM update process and the swarm management sufficiently smart that I can just "yum update" each node without worrying about the other steps?
