|
|
It is an easy to use way to inspect jobs, allocations, and nodes.

# Nomad UI
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Nomad UI offers an easy to use web experience for inspecting a Nomad cluster.
|
||
|
|
Jobs, Deployments, Task Groups, Allocations, Clients, and Servers can all be
|
||
|
|
monitored from the Nomad UI. The UI also supports the use of ACL tokens for
|
||
|
|
clusters that are using the Nomad Access Control List system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
~> **Beta Feature!** This page covers the Nomad UI, a feature of v0.7 which is still in beta.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Accessing the UI
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Nomad UI is served on the same address and port as the HTTP API. It is namespaced
|
||
|
|
under `/ui`, but visiting the root of the Nomad server in your browser will redirect you
|
||
|
|
to the UI. If you are unsure what port the Nomad HTTP API is running under, try the default
|
||
|
|
port, `4646`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Reviewing Jobs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The home page of the UI is the jobs list view. This page has a searchable, sortable,
|
||
|
|
paginated table of all jobs in the cluster, regardless of job status.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[![Jobs List][img-jobs-list]][img-jobs-list]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To sort the table, click a table column's header cell. To search, type a query into the searchbox.
|
||
|
|
By default the search will fuzzy-match any job name, but by starting a query with a `/`, the search
|
||
|
|
will instead be based on a regular expression.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sort property, sort direction, search term, and page number are all stored as query params to make
|
||
|
|
sharing links easier.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition to name, each job in the table includes details such as current status, type, priority,
|
||
|
|
number of task groups, and an aggregation of all allocations by allocation status.

|
|
## Inspecting a Job
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clicking on a job will navigate to the Job Detail page. This page shows a list of task groups
|
||
|
|
for the job as well as the status of each allocation for each task group by allocation status.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[![Job Detail][img-job-detail]][img-job-detail]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Reading a Job Definition
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Job Detail page has multiple tabs, one of which is Definition. On the Definition page, the full
|
||
|
|
job definition is shown as an interactive JSON object.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Reviewing Past Job Versions
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Job Versions can be found on the Versions tab on the Job Detail page. This page has a timeline view of
|
||
|
|
every tracked version for the job.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[![Job Versions][img-job-versions]][img-job-versions]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each version can be toggled to also show the diff between job versions.

||

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Reviewing Past Job Deployments
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Job Deployments are listed on the Deployments tab on the Job Detail page. Every tracked deployment is listed in
|
||
|
|
a timeline view.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[![Job Deployments][img-job-deployments]][img-job-deployments]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each deployment can be toggle to show information about the deployment, including canaries placed and desired,
|
||
|
|
allocations placed and desired, healthy and unhealthy allocations, task group metrics, and existing allocations.

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Monitoring a Current Job Deployment
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When a deployment is currently running, it is called out on the Job Detail Overview tab.

|
## Inspecting a Task Group
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clicking on a task group from the Job Detail page will navigate to the Task Group Detail page. This page shows
|
||
|
|
the aggregated resource metrics for a task group as well as a list of all associated allocations.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[![Task Group Detail][img-task-group-detail]][img-task-group-detail]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Inspecting an Allocation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From the Task Group Detail page, each allocation in the allocations table will report basic information about
|
||
|
|
the allocation, including utilized CPU and memory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[![Allocation Stats][img-allocation-stats]][img-allocation-stats]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
~> **Note.** To collect current CPU and memory statistics, the Nomad UI makes requests directly to the client
|
||
|
|
~> the allocation is running on. These requests will fail unless the browser session is running in the same
|
||
|
|
~> subnet as the Nomad client.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clicking an allocation will navigate to the Allocation Detail page. From here, the event history for each task
|
||
|
|
in the allocation can be seen.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
## Reviewing Clients
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clicking the Clients link in the left-hand menu of the Nomad UI will navigate to the Clients List page. This page
|
||
|
|
has a searchable, sortable, paginated table of all clients in the cluster.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sort property, sort direction, search term, and page number are all stored as query params to make
|
||
|
|
sharing links easier.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition to name, each client in the table includes details such as current status, address, datacenter,
|
||
|
|
and number of allocations.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[![Clients List][img-clients-list]][img-clients-list]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Inspecting a Client
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clicking on a client will navigate to the Client Detail page. This page shows the status of the client as
|
||
|
|
well as the list of all allocations placed on the client. Additionally, all attributes of the machine are
|
||
|
|
itemized.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[![Client Detail][img-client-detail]][img-client-detail]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Inspecting Servers
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clicking on the Servers link in the left-hand menu of the Nomad UI will navigate to the Servers List page. This
|
||
|
|
page lists all servers, including which one is the current leader.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clicking on a server in the list will open up a table that lists the Tags for the server.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Using an ACL Token
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When the Nomad ACL system is enabled for the cluster, tokens can be used to gain elevated permissions to see
|
||
|
|
otherwise private jobs, nodes, and other details. To register a token with the UI, click ACL Tokens on the
|
||
|
|
right-hand side of the top navigation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The ACL Tokens page has a two field form for providing a token Secret ID and token Accessor ID. The form
|
||
|
|
automatically updates as the values change, and once a Secret ID is provided, all future HTTP requests the
|
||
|
|
Nomad UI makes will provide the Secret ID as the ACL Token via the `X-Nomad-Token` request header.
|
||
|
