Unlike orchestrators that stop an old container before starting the new one, Dokploy initializes Docker Swarm on single-node and multi-node installs alike.
By pairing Swarm update_config: { order: start-first } with an HTTP /api/health probe and Traefik dynamic service discovery, new containers warm up and pass healthchecks before Traefik drains a single active user connection. (DokployHub BP-03)
In this BP-03 runbook on DokployHub, we pair interactive cgroup RAM sizing, browser-persisted checklist gates, and copyable configuration snippets grounded in 2026-11-12 public vendor rate cards.
DokployHub BP-03 Architecture & Hardening Checklist
-
Configure a real HTTP healthcheck inside every Dokploy Swarm service (wget -qO- http://127.0.0.1:3000/api/health) because Swarm only waits to drain old replicas when health status transitions from starting to healthy.
Confirm gate #1 in your BP-03 staging environment.
-
Set update_config.order: start-first and failure_action: rollback so a broken database migration or missing secret aborts the rollout automatically while keeping the prior replica live.
Confirm gate #2 in your BP-03 staging environment.
-
When scaling past one server, join worker nodes over a private VPC or WireGuard mesh (docker swarm join) and pin stateful PostgreSQL/Redis containers to specific NVMe storage nodes using node.labels.
Confirm gate #3 in your BP-03 staging environment.
-
Set stop_grace_period: 20s and handle SIGTERM in Node.js/Go servers so in-flight Stripe webhooks and database transactions finish cleanly during replica drain.
Confirm gate #4 in your BP-03 staging environment.

DokployHub BP-03 Operational FAQ
Why did my Dokploy deploy briefly show a Traefik 502 Bad Gateway even on Swarm? (DokployHub BP-03)
Without a container HEALTHCHECK instruction, Docker marks a replica "running" the millisecond the PID starts—before Next.js or Fastify binds port 3000.
Adding a 10s HTTP healthcheck with start_period: 15s guarantees Traefik only routes traffic once the socket is warm.
Should PostgreSQL run replicated across Docker Swarm worker nodes? (DokployHub BP-03)
Never stripe a single PostgreSQL data directory across network filesystems in Swarm. Pin primary Postgres to one high-IOPS NVMe node via placement constraints (node.labels.db == true) and stream continuous WAL/pg_dump backups to off-site S3.
DokployHub Pre-Cutover Verification Principles (BP-03 (dokploy-docker-swarm-zero-downtime))
In live audits of Zero-Downtime Rolling Deployments, auditing Docker Swarm workers egress pools with vnstat monthly keeps Zero Downtime instances (/etc/dokploy/traefik/dynamic.yml) portable across Hostinger and Vultr.
