Hi, So I’ve got two container hosts with a label “web.server = true” and I’ve restricted all web applications to run on those hosts. However when I start scaling the containers it puts all the containers on the same host. Any ideas? Thanks ---

Can you share a screenshot of your hosts? Between the hosts, it will schedule based on how many existing containers are on your host. Also, can you share your docker-compose.yml? ---

I’ve removed some sensitive data in the compose file, however there’s a fair amount in the dashboard. Currently there are 4 containers running all on one host rather than spreading between hosts with the label “web.server=true” ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/suse/original/2X/e/e1db5e3febaf3af6f1e6dd21638bf049fd70d80e.PNG) ---

How many containers are on each host? ---

4 on one node and zero on the other for the application stack in question. ---

What other containers are on the host with none for the application stack? Rancher schedules containers on hosts based on how many containers (all in) are on each host. Example: Host A has 5 containers. Host B has no containers. If I try to schedule between host A and B. 5 containers will be launched on Host A before starting to schedule containers on Host B. There is no guarantee of spread of containers onto hosts based on label. There is an open Github issue for it. >
