View the status of a service task
Services in a Docker Swarm environment are a collection of tasks (or individual containers). This article explains how to quickly see the status of the containers that make up each service.
From the menu select Services then click the down-arrow to the left of the service you want to inspect. The tasks that make up the service will be shown.
