Sebastiaan van Stijn 40baa97ab1 Improve swarm join-token instructions
this change improves the instructions for
swarm join-token and swarm init;

- only print the join-token command for workers
  instead of for both managers and workers, to
  prevent users from copying the wrong command.
  An extra line is added to explain how to obtain
  the manager token.
- print a message that a token was rotated
  sucesfully if '--rotate' is used.
- add some extra white-space before / after
  the join commands, to make copy/pasting
  easier.

this change also does some refactoring of join-token;

- move flagname-constants together with other constants
- use variables for selected role ("worker" / "manager")
  to prevent checking for them multiple times, and to
  keep the "worker" / "manager" sting centralized
- add an extra blank line after "join-token" instructions
  this makes it easier to copy, and cleans up the
  code a tiny bit

# Create a swarm
After you complete the [tutorial setup](index.md) steps, you're ready
to create a swarm. Make sure the Docker Engine daemon is started on the host
machines.
1. Open a terminal and ssh into the machine where you want to run your manager
node. For example, the tutorial uses a machine named `manager1`.
2. Run the following command to create a new swarm:
```bash
docker swarm init --advertise-addr <MANAGER-IP>
```
In the tutorial, the following command creates a swarm on the `manager1`
machine:
```bash
$ docker swarm init --advertise-addr 192.168.99.100
Swarm initialized: current node (dxn1zf6l61qsb1josjja83ngz) is now a manager.
To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:
docker swarm join \
--token SWMTKN-1-49nj1cmql0jkz5s954yi3oex3nedyz0fb0xx14ie39trti4wxv-8vxv8rssmk743ojnwacrr2e7c \
192.168.99.100:2377
To add a manager to this swarm, run 'docker swarm join-token manager' and follow the instructions.
```
The `--advertise-addr` flag configures the manager node to publish its
address as `192.168.99.100`. The other nodes in the swarm must be able
to access the manager at the IP address.
The output incudes the commands to join new nodes to the swarm. Nodes will
join as managers or workers depending on the value for the `--swarm-token`
flag.
2. Run `docker info` to view the current state of the swarm:
```bash
$ docker info
Containers: 2
Running: 0
Paused: 0
Stopped: 2
...snip...
Swarm: active
NodeID: dxn1zf6l61qsb1josjja83ngz
Is Manager: true
Managers: 1
Nodes: 1
...snip...
```
3. Run the `docker node ls` command to view information about nodes:
```bash
$ docker node ls
ID HOSTNAME STATUS AVAILABILITY MANAGER STATUS
dxn1zf6l61qsb1josjja83ngz * manager1 Ready Active Leader
```
The `*` next to the node id indicates that you're currently connected on
this node.
Docker Engine swarm mode automatically names the node for the machine host
name. The tutorial covers other columns in later steps.
## What's next?
In the next section of the tutorial, we'll [add two more nodes](add-nodes.md) to
the cluster.
