The `consul.client_auto_join` configuration block tells the Nomad
client whether to use Consul service discovery to find Nomad
servers. By default it is set to `true`, but contrary to the
documentation it was only respected during the initial client
registration. If a client missed a heartbeat, failed a
`Node.UpdateStatus` RPC, or if there was no Nomad leader, the client
would fallback to Consul even if `client_auto_join` was set to
`false`. This changeset returns early from the client's trigger for
Consul discovery if the `client_auto_join` field is set to `false`.
Enhance the CLI in order to return the host network in two flavors
(default, verbose) of the `node status` command.
Fixes: #11223.

Speed up client startup, by retrying more until the servers are known.
Currently, if client fingerprinting is fast and finishes before the
client connect to a server, node registration may be delayed by 15
seconds or so!
Ideally, we'd wait until the client discovers the servers and then retry
immediately, but that requires significant code changes.
Here, we simply retry the node registration request every second. That's
basically the equivalent of check if the client discovered servers every
second. Should be a cheap operation.
When testing this change on my local computer and where both servers and
clients are co-located, the time from startup till node registration
dropped from 34 seconds to 8 seconds!
When the client launches, use a consistent read to fetch its own allocs,
but allow stale read afterwards as long as reads don't revert into older
state.
This change addresses an edge case affecting restarting client. When a
client restarts, it may fetch a stale data concerning its allocs: allocs
that have completed prior to the client shutdown may still have "run/running"
desired/client status, and have the client attempt to re-run again.
An alternative approach is to track the indices such that the client
set MinQueryIndex on the maximum index the client ever saw, or compare
received allocs against locally restored client state. Garbage
collection complicates this approach (local knowledge is not complete),
and the approach still risks starting "dead" allocations (e.g. the
allocation may have been placed when client just restarted and have
already been reschuled by the time the client started. This approach
here is effective against all kinds of stalness problems with small
overhead.
This updates `client.Ready()` so it returns once the client node got
registered at the servers. Previously, it returns when the
fingerprinters first batch completes, wtihout ensuring that the node is
stored in the Raft data. The tests may fail later when it with unknown
node errors later.
`client.Reedy()` seem to be only called in CSI and some client stats
now.
This class of bug, assuming client is registered without checking, is a
source of flakiness elsewhere. Other tests use other mechanisms for
checking node readiness, though not consistently.
Add a new driver capability: RemoteTasks.
When a task is run by a driver with RemoteTasks set, its TaskHandle will
be propagated to the server in its allocation's TaskState. If the task
is replaced due to a down node or draining, its TaskHandle will be
propagated to its replacement allocation.
This allows tasks to be scheduled in remote systems whose lifecycles are
disconnected from the Nomad node's lifecycle.
See https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad-driver-ecs for an example ECS
remote task driver.
on Linux systems this is derived from the configure cpuset cgroup parent (defaults to /nomad)
for non Linux systems and Linux systems where cgroups are not enabled, the client defaults to using all cores
This commit includes a new test client that allows overriding the RPC
protocols. Only the RPCs that are passed in are registered, which lets you
implement a mock RPC in the server tests. This commit includes an example of
this for the ClientCSI RPC server.
* Throw away result of multierror.Append
When given a *multierror.Error, it is mutated, therefore the return
value is not needed.
* Simplify MergeMultierrorWarnings, use StringBuilder
* Hash.Write() never returns an error
* Remove error that was always nil
* Remove error from Resources.Add signature
When this was originally written it could return an error, but that was
refactored away, and callers of it as of today never handle the error.
* Throw away results of io.Copy during Bridge
* Handle errors when computing node class in test
When upgrading from Nomad v0.12.x to v1.0.x, Nomad client will panic on
startup if the node is running Connect enabled jobs. This is caused by
a missing piece of plumbing of the Consul Proxies API interface during the
client restore process.
Fixes#9738
Nomad v1.0.0 introduced a regression where the client configurations
for `connect.sidecar_image` and `connect.gateway_image` would be
ignored despite being set. This PR restores that functionality.
There was a missing layer of interpolation that needs to occur for
these parameters. Since Nomad 1.0 now supports dynamic envoy versioning
through the ${NOMAD_envoy_version} psuedo variable, we basically need
to first interpolate
${connect.sidecar_image} => envoyproxy/envoy:v${NOMAD_envoy_version}
then use Consul at runtime to resolve to a real image, e.g.
envoyproxy/envoy:v${NOMAD_envoy_version} => envoyproxy/envoy:v1.16.0
Of course, if the version of Consul is too old to provide an envoy
version preference, we then need to know to fallback to the old
version of envoy that we used before.
envoyproxy/envoy:v${NOMAD_envoy_version} => envoyproxy/envoy:v1.11.2@sha256:a7769160c9c1a55bb8d07a3b71ce5d64f72b1f665f10d81aa1581bc3cf850d09
Beyond that, we also need to continue to support jobs that set the
sidecar task themselves, e.g.
sidecar_task { config { image: "custom/envoy" } }
which itself could include teh pseudo envoy version variable.
Previously, every Envoy Connect sidecar would spawn as many worker
threads as logical CPU cores. That is Envoy's default behavior when
`--concurrency` is not explicitly set. Nomad now sets the concurrency
flag to 1, which is sensible for the default cpu = 250 Mhz resources
allocated for sidecar proxies. The concurrency value can be configured
in Client configuration by setting `meta.connect.proxy_concurrency`.
Closes#9341
Always wait 200ms before calling the Node.UpdateAlloc RPC to send
allocation updates to servers.
Prior to this change we only reset the update ticker when an error was
encountered. This meant the 200ms ticker was running while the RPC was
being performed. If the RPC was slow due to network latency or server
load and took >=200ms, the ticker would tick during the RPC.
Then on the next loop only the select would randomly choose between the
two viable cases: receive an update or fire the RPC again.
If the RPC case won it would immediately loop again due to there being
no updates to send.
When the update chan receive is selected a single update is added to the
slice. The odds are then 50/50 that the subsequent loop will send the
single update instead of receiving any more updates.
This could cause a couple of problems:
1. Since only a small number of updates are sent, the chan buffer may
fill, applying backpressure, and slowing down other client
operations.
2. The small number of updates sent may already be stale and not
represent the current state of the allocation locally.
A risk here is that it's hard to reason about how this will interact
with the 50ms batches on servers when the servers under load.
A further improvement would be to completely remove the alloc update
chan and instead use a mutex to build a map of alloc updates. I wanted
to test the lowest risk possible change on loaded servers first before
making more drastic changes.
As newer versions of Consul are released, the minimum version of Envoy
it supports as a sidecar proxy also gets bumped. Starting with the upcoming
Consul v1.9.X series, Envoy v1.11.X will no longer be supported. Current
versions of Nomad hardcode a version of Envoy v1.11.2 to be used as the
default implementation of Connect sidecar proxy.
This PR introduces a change such that each Nomad Client will query its
local Consul for a list of Envoy proxies that it supports (https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/pull/8545)
and then launch the Connect sidecar proxy task using the latest supported version
of Envoy. If the `SupportedProxies` API component is not available from
Consul, Nomad will fallback to the old version of Envoy supported by old
versions of Consul.
Setting the meta configuration option `meta.connect.sidecar_image` or
setting the `connect.sidecar_task` stanza will take precedence as is
the current behavior for sidecar proxies.
Setting the meta configuration option `meta.connect.gateway_image`
will take precedence as is the current behavior for connect gateways.
`meta.connect.sidecar_image` and `meta.connect.gateway_image` may make
use of the special `${NOMAD_envoy_version}` variable interpolation, which
resolves to the newest version of Envoy supported by the Consul agent.
Addresses #8585#7665
- We previously added these to the client host metrics, but it's useful to have them on all client metrics.
- e.g. so you can exclude draining nodes from charts showing your fleet size.
This PR adds initial support for running Consul Connect Ingress Gateways (CIGs) in Nomad. These gateways are declared as part of a task group level service definition within the connect stanza.
```hcl
service {
connect {
gateway {
proxy {
// envoy proxy configuration
}
ingress {
// ingress-gateway configuration entry
}
}
}
}
```
A gateway can be run in `bridge` or `host` networking mode, with the caveat that host networking necessitates manually specifying the Envoy admin listener (which cannot be disabled) via the service port value.
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in Consul, and Nomad only supports running Envoy as a gateway using the docker driver.

In order to minimize this change while keeping a simple version of the
behavior, we set `lastOk` to the current time less the intial server
connection timeout. If the client starts and never contacts the
server, it will stop all configured tasks after the initial server
connection grace period, on the assumption that we've been out of
touch longer than any configured `stop_after_client_disconnect`.
The more complex state behavior might be justified later, but we
should learn about failure modes first.
- track lastHeartbeat, the client local time of the last successful
heartbeat round trip
- track allocations with `stop_after_client_disconnect` configured
- trigger allocation destroy (which handles cleanup)
- restore heartbeat/killable allocs tracking when allocs are recovered from disk
- on client restart, stop those allocs after a grace period if the
servers are still partioned

In order to correctly fingerprint dynamic plugins on client restarts,
we need to persist a handle to the plugin (that is, connection info)
to the client state store.
The dynamic registry will sync automatically to the client state
whenever it receives a register/deregister call.
As part of introducing support for CSI, AllocRunner hooks need to be
able to communicate with Nomad Servers for validation of and interaction
with storage volumes. Here we create a small RPCer interface and pass
the client (rpc client) to the AR in preparation for making these RPCs.
This changeset is some pre-requisite boilerplate that is required for
introducing CSI volume management for client nodes.
It extracts out fingerprinting logic from the csi instance manager.
This change is to facilitate reusing the csimanager to also manage the
node-local CSI functionality, as it is the easiest place for us to
guaruntee health checking and to provide additional visibility into the
running operations through the fingerprinter mechanism and goroutine.
It also introduces the VolumeMounter interface that will be used to
manage staging/publishing unstaging/unpublishing of volumes on the host.
This changeset implements the initial registration and fingerprinting
of CSI Plugins as part of #5378. At a high level, it introduces the
following:
* A `csi_plugin` stanza as part of a Nomad task configuration, to
allow a task to expose that it is a plugin.
* A new task runner hook: `csi_plugin_supervisor`. This hook does two
things. When the `csi_plugin` stanza is detected, it will
automatically configure the plugin task to receive bidirectional
mounts to the CSI intermediary directory. At runtime, it will then
perform an initial heartbeat of the plugin and handle submitting it to
the new `dynamicplugins.Registry` for further use by the client, and
then run a lightweight heartbeat loop that will emit task events
when health changes.
* The `dynamicplugins.Registry` for handling plugins that run
as Nomad tasks, in contrast to the existing catalog that requires
`go-plugin` type plugins and to know the plugin configuration in
advance.
* The `csimanager` which fingerprints CSI plugins, in a similar way to
`drivermanager` and `devicemanager`. It currently only fingerprints
the NodeID from the plugin, and assumes that all plugins are
monolithic.
Missing features
* We do not use the live updates of the `dynamicplugin` registry in
the `csimanager` yet.
* We do not deregister the plugins from the client when they shutdown
yet, they just become indefinitely marked as unhealthy. This is
deliberate until we figure out how we should manage deploying new
versions of plugins/transitioning them.
