| # Docker Swarm Service Driller(ssd) | |
| ssd is a troubleshooting utility for Docker swarm networks. | |
| ### control-plane and datapath consistency check on a node | |
| ssd checks for the consistency between docker network control-plane (from the docker daemon in-memory state) and kernel data path programming. Currently the tool checks only for the consistency of the Load balancer (implemented using IPVS). | |
| In a three node swarm cluster ssd status for a overlay network `ov2` which has three services running, each replicated to 3 instances. | |
| ````bash | |
| vagrant@net-1:~/code/go/src/github.com/docker/docker-e2e/tests$ docker run -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /var/run/docker/netns:/var/run/docker/netns --privileged --net=host sanimej/ssd ov2 | |

| ssd checks the required iptables programming to direct an incoming packet with the <host ip>:<published port> to the right <backend ip>:<target port> | |
| ### control-plane consistency check across nodes in a cluster | |
| Docker networking uses a gossip protocol to synchronize networking state across nodes in a cluster. ssd's `gossip-consistency` command verifies if the state maintained by all the nodes are consistent. | |
| ````bash | |
| In a three node cluster with services running on an overlay network ov2 ssd consistency-checker shows | |
| vagrant@net-1:~/code/go/src/github.com/docker/docker-e2e/tests$ docker run -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /var/run/docker/netns:/var/run/docker/netns --privileged sanimej/ssd ov2 gossip-consistency | |

| This is hash digest of the control-plane state for the network `ov2` from all the cluster nodes. If the values have a mismatch `docker network inspect --verbose` on the individual nodes can help in identifying what the specific difference is. |
