I am facing this issue starting up Swarm Environment through Rancher UI (following the standard document ).  
There are thee swarm nodes.

Removed the environment \>\> removed everything from hosts \>\>\> Recreated the environment \>\>\> Added only 1 host and waited for a couple of minutes \>\>\> Once all services came up \>\>\> Added remaining two hosts.

Its been working fine since then.

Thanks,
