How can I remove shutdown Docker Service tasks after a rolling update? : <p>I'm using Docker Swarm to test services on AWS. I recently applied an update to the service like this:</p>

<pre><code> docker service update --image TestImage:v2 --update-parallelism 2 \
--update-delay 10s TestService2
</code></pre>

<p>The update worked as intended, and the service updated the task containers to v2. However a quick <code>docker service ps TestService2 | grep "v1"</code> reveals a bunch of shutdown <code>TestImage:v1</code> tasks.</p>

<p>How can I remove these without going to each individual swarm node and running <code>docker rm</code> on the exited containers? I don't think theres a <code>docker service</code> command to do it, I've looked through the docs, but does anyone know of a hack or script that I can run on a Swarm Manager to clean up the nodes?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
