What happens to existing containers when swarm mode activated
I want to activate swarm mode on a machine but there are some running containers on there. What happens to those containers if swarm mode is activated?

They keep running normally in the node (computer/machine) they were initially in, but not in swarm mode, as they're not services. Even after you have a Swarm running, you can still create regular containers on each node of your cluster by using docker run.
