Nomad's original autopilot was importing from a private package in Consul. It
has been moved out to a shared library. Switch Nomad to use this library so that
we can eliminate the import of Consul, which is necessary to build Nomad ENT
with the current version of the Consul SDK. This also will let us pick up
autopilot improvements shared with Consul more easily.
* core: allow pause/un-pause of eval broker on region leader.
* agent: add ability to pause eval broker via scheduler config.
* cli: add operator scheduler commands to interact with config.
* api: add ability to pause eval broker via scheduler config
* e2e: add operator scheduler test for eval broker pause.
* docs: include new opertor scheduler CLI and pause eval API info.
During incident response, operators may find that automated processes
elsewhere in the organization can be generating new workloads on Nomad
clusters that are unable to handle the workload. This changeset adds a
field to the `SchedulerConfiguration` API that causes all job
registration calls to be rejected unless the request has a management
ACL token.
This PR implements a new "System Batch" scheduler type. Jobs can
make use of this new scheduler by setting their type to 'sysbatch'.
Like the name implies, sysbatch can be thought of as a hybrid between
system and batch jobs - it is for running short lived jobs intended to
run on every compatible node in the cluster.
As with batch jobs, sysbatch jobs can also be periodic and/or parameterized
dispatch jobs. A sysbatch job is considered complete when it has been run
on all compatible nodes until reaching a terminal state (success or failed
on retries).
Feasibility and preemption are governed the same as with system jobs. In
this PR, the update stanza is not yet supported. The update stanza is sill
limited in functionality for the underlying system scheduler, and is
not useful yet for sysbatch jobs. Further work in #4740 will improve
support for the update stanza and deployments.
Closes#2527
