Persisting data in a docker swarm with glusterfs

Question

I have a docker swarm cluster with a lot of worker nodes and a lot of containers.

So when one node crashes, swarm creates another container on another node But i end up losing important information.

Is there any other way to avoid this scenerio?

You will have to create a volume using flocker driver for each application as pointed by the tutorial:

...
volumes:
  mysql:
    driver: "flocker"
    driver_opts:
      size: "10GiB"
      profile: "bronze"
