Description

@manishtomar commented on Tue Jul 25 2017

File: engine/reference/commandline/stack_ps.md, CC @mstanleyjones

-> https://docs.docker.com/reference/cli/docker/stack/ps/

It will be helpful if the doc contained description about each field listed in docker stack ps. All of them except ID and Name are obvious. I am always confused between container ID and task ID. Please describe the difference between the two if possible. I also had trouble figuring out what the numerical suffix in Name meant. I am assuming it is replica number.

Research direction

Start with engine/reference/commandline/stack_ps.md and compare its field descriptions with the output of docker stack ps. Document the meanings of the ID and Name fields, distinguish container IDs from task IDs, and explain the numerical suffix in Name; the issue is done when each listed field is described.
