# Upgrading Specific Versions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The [upgrading page](/docs/upgrade/index.html) covers the details of doing
|
|
|
|
|
a standard upgrade. However, specific versions of Nomad may have more
|
|
|
|
|
details provided for their upgrades as a result of new features or changed
|
|
|
|
|
behavior. This page is used to document those details separately from the
|
|
|
|
|
standard upgrade flow.

## Nomad 0.3.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nomad 0.3.1 removes artifact downloading from driver configs and places them as
|
|
|
|
|
a first class element of the task. As such, jobs will have to be rewritten in
|
|
|
|
|
the proper format and resubmitted to Nomad. Nomad clients will properly
|
|
|
|
|
re-attach to existing tasks but job definitions must be updated before they can
|
|
|
|
|
be dispatched to clients running 0.3.1.

## Nomad 0.3.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nomad 0.3.0 has made several substantial changes to job files included a new
|
|
|
|
|
`log` block and variable interpretation syntax (`${var}`), a modified `restart`
|
|
|
|
|
policy syntax, and minimum resources for tasks as well as validation. These
|
|
|
|
|
changes require a slight change to the default upgrade flow.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After upgrading the version of the servers, all previously submitted jobs must
|
|
|
|
|
be resubmitted with the updated job syntax using a Nomad 0.3.0 binary.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* All instances of `$var` must be converted to the new syntax of `${var}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* All tasks must provide their required resources for CPU, memory and disk as
|
|
|
|
|
well as required network usage if ports are required by the task.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Restart policies must be updated to indicate whether it is desired for the
|
|
|
|
|
task to restart on failure or to fail using `mode = "delay"` or `mode =
|
|
|
|
|
"fail"` respectively.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Service names that include periods will fail validation. To fix, remove any
|
|
|
|
|
periods from the service name before running the job.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After updating the Servers and job files, Nomad Clients can be upgraded by first
|
|
|
|
|
draining the node so no tasks are running on it. This can be verified by running
|
|
|
|
|
`nomad node-status <node-id>` and verify there are no tasks in the `running`
|
|
|
|
|
state. Once that is done the client can be killed, the `data_dir` should be
|
|
|
|
|
deleted and then Nomad 0.3.0 can be launched.
