Our dnsmasq configuration needs host-specific data that we can't configure in
the AMI build. But configuring this in userdata leads to a race between
userdata execution, docker.service startup, and dnsmasq.service startup. So
rather than letting dnsmasq come up with incorrect configuration and then
modifying it after the fact, do the configuration in the service's prestart,
and have it kick off a Docker restart when we're done.

Add the ingress gateway example from the noamd connect examples
to the e2e Connect suite. Includes the ACLs enabled version,
which means the nomad server consul acl policy will require
operator=write permission.
The clean up in #8908 inadvertently caused the output from the scripts
involved in the Consul ACL bootstrap process to be printed as a big blob
of bytes, which is slightly less useful than the text version.
* e2e/csi: wait longer for plugins to become healthy
Plugins are Docker containers, and as such sometimes we get delays in startup
due to pulling from the registry and this is a source of test flakiness. Give
the plugins a little longer to start up.
* e2e/csi: version bump for AWS EBS plugins
The cloud-init configuration runs on boot, which can result in a race
condition between that and service startup. This has caused provisioning
failures because Nomad expects the userdata to have configured a host volume
directory. Diagnosing this was also compounded by a warning being fired by
systemd for the Nomad unit file.
* Update the location of the `StartLimitIntervalSec` field to it's
post-systemd-230 location.
* Ensure that the weekly AMI build is up-to-date to reduce the risk of
unexpected system software changes.
* Move the host volume to a directory we can set up at AMI build time rather
than in userdata.
Assert that deregistering a volume works without errors following a volume
reap. Use CLI helpers where feasible to exercise CSI command line. Dump plugin
allocation logs on deregistration failures for debugging purposes.
Small changes to the Windows 2016 Packer build for debuggability of
provisioning:
* improve verbosity of powershell error handling
* remove unused "tools" installation
* use ssh communicator for Packer to improve Packer build times and eliminate
deprecated winrm remote access (unavailable from current macOS)
The `nomad_sha`, `nomad_version`, and `nomad_local_binary` variables for the
Nomad provisioning module assumed that only one would be set. By having the
override each other with an explicit precedence, it makes it easier to avoid
problems with Terraform's implicit variables behavior.
Set the expected default values in the `terraform.full.tfvars` to avoid
shadowing by any future changes to the `terraform.tfvars` file.
Update the Makefile to put the `-var` and `-var-file` in the correct order.
The base Ubuntu AMI modifies apt sources during cloud-init. But the Packer
build can potentially start the setup script before that work is done,
resulting in errors trying to install base system dependencies like
`dnsmasq`. Delay the setup long enough to lose the race with cloud-init.
We intend to expand the nightly E2E test to cover multiple distros and
platforms. Change the naming structure for "Linux client" to the more precise
"Ubuntu Bionic", and "Windows" to "Windows 2016" to make it easier to add new
targets without additional refactoring.
Most of the time that a human is running the TF provisioning, they want the
"dev cluster" which is going to deploy an OSS sha, with fewer targets and
configuration alternatives. But the default `terraform.tfvars` is the nightly
E2E run. Because the nightly run is automated, there's no reason we can't have
it pick a non-default `terraform.full.tfvars` file and have the default be the
dev cluster.
Prior to Nomad 0.12.5, you could use `${NOMAD_SECRETS_DIR}/mysecret.txt` as
the `artifact.destination` and `template.destination` because we would always
append the destination to the task working directory. In the recent security
patch we treated the `destination` absolute path as valid if it didn't escape
the working directory, but this breaks backwards compatibility and
interpolation of `destination` fields.
This changeset partially reverts the behavior so that we always append the
destination, but we also perform the escape check on that new destination
after interpolation so the security hole is closed.
Also, ConsulTemplate test should exercise interpolation
The `$NOMAD_SECRETS_DIR` environment variable is rendered as `/secrets`, which
prior to the recent security patch would unintentionally escape the file
sandbox and get dropped in a directory named `/secrets` where the Nomad client
binary was running. The `VaultSecrets` test was accidentally relying on this
behavior and that causes the test to fail.
When uploading a local binary for provisioning, the location that we pass into
the provisioning script needs to be where we uploaded it to, not the source on
our laptop. Also, the null_resource for uploading needs to read in the private
key, not its path.

The spread test is infrequently flaky and it's hard to extract what's actually
happening. If the test fails, dump all the allocation metrics so that we can
debug the behavior.
Assert that we get at least N task events, rather than exactly N. When a
task within an allocation dies, a sibling task can get an Allocation Unhealthy
event after it's also killed, even though it's not the origin of the event.
The `e2ejob` utility asserts that a job is running for 5s, but with a sleep
time of 5s, the networking job can race with that check. Sleeping for a longer
period should guarantee that we're running long enough to pass the assert.
Also constrains the job to Linux because our Windows test targets don't yet
support Docker (LCOW), and expand the set of DCs we can safely land on.
The autorevert test checks for reverted allocations to be placed and running
before checking the deployment status, but the deployment can be completed and
marked "successful" before we check it for "running" status. Instead, just
wait for it to be marked "successful" and assert we have the expected count of
deployment statuses.
Instead of hard-coding the base AMI for our Packer image for Ubuntu, use the
latest from Canonical so that we always have their current kernel patches.
For everyday developer use, we don't need volumes for testing CSI. Providing a
flag to opt-in speeds up deploying dev clusters and slightly reduces infra costs.
Skip CSI test if missing volume specs.
Add service discovery integration to the existing consul-template E2E test,
and verify both service and key updates force re-rendering. Fixes flakiness by
using the longer default wait config we use elsewhere.
Removes our last direct dependency on gomega.
Provisions vault with the policies described in the Nomad Vault integration
guide, and drops a configuration file for Nomad vault server configuration
with its token. The vault root token is exposed to the E2E runner so that
tests can write additional policies to vault.
The `-var-file` flag for loading variables into Terraform overlays the default
variables file if present. This means that variables that are set in the
default variables file will take precedence if the overlay file does not have
them set.
Set `nomad_acls` and `nomad_enteprise` to `false` in the dev cluster.
Until we have LCOW support in the E2E environment (which requires a Windows
2019 test target), we need to constrain E2E tests to the appropriate kernel
The E2E framework wraps testify's `require` so that by default we can stop
tests on errors, but the cleanup functions should use `assert` so that we
continue to try to cleanup the test environment even if there's a failure.
Exercises host volume and Docker volume functionality for the `exec` and `docker`
task driver, particularly around mounting locations within the container and
how this can be used with `template`.
Adds a `nomad_acls` flag to our Terraform stack that bootstraps Nomad ACLs via
a `local-exec` provider. There's no way to set the `NOMAD_TOKEN` in the Nomad
TF provider if we're bootstrapping in the same Terraform stack, so instead of
using `resource.nomad_acl_token`, we also bootstrap a wide-open anonymous
policy. The resulting management token is exported as an environment var with
`$(terraform output environment)` and tests that want stricter ACLs will be
able to write them using that token.
This should also provide a basis to do similar work with Consul ACLs in the
future.
Newer EC2 instances are both cheaper and have generally better
performance.
The dnsmasq configuration had a hard-coded interface name, so in order to
accomodate instances with more recent networking that result in so-called
predictable interface names, the dnsmasq configuration needs to be replaced at
runtime with userdata to select the default interface.
The conditional around some of the rescheduling tests was backwards, where we
were waiting for allocations to be rescheduled but testing for a count of
0. The test was passing but flaky because if the check happened quickly enough
before the scheduler rescheduled the allocations, it would pass.
Have Terraform run the target-specific `provision.sh`/`provision.ps1` script
rather than the test runner code which needs to be customized for each
distro. Use Terraform's detection of variable value changes so that we can
re-run the provisioning without having to re-install Nomad on those specific
hosts that need it changed.
Allow the configuration "profile" (well-known directory) to be set by a
Terraform variable. The default configurations are installed during Packer
build time, and symlinked into the live configuration directory by the
provision script. Detect changes in the file contents so that we only upload
custom configuration files that have changed between Terraform runs
* remove outdated references to envchain in documentation
* add new host volume locations in userdata
* don't exit the entire script during provisioning, just return
The CLI helpers in the rescheduling test were intended for shared use, but
until some other tests were written we didn't want to waste time making them
generic. This changeset refactors them and adds some new helpers associated
with the node drain tests (under separate PR).
The rescheduling test workloads were created before we had Windows targets in
the E2E nightly run. When these were recently ported to the e2e framework they
were missing the constraint to Linux machines.
Also added a little extra time to polling to avoid some flakiness on the first
run, and a minor readability adjustment to the job names.
Ports the rescheduling tests (which aren't running in CI) into the current
test framework so that they're run on nightly, and exercises the new CLI
helpers.
The E2E suite exercises the API, but not the CLI. This changeset adds a helper
function to send commands via a locally-built Nomad binary (which we'll need
to add to the E2E setup), and some helpers to parse the resulting structured
outputs in a way that tests can consume.
When running the Fabio and Prometheus jobs for the metrics suite
it seems the outer directory is required in the call when
registering the job.
error: "e2e/input/fabio.nomad: no such file or directory"
This changeset stages upcoming E2E provisioning improvements work. It splits
the existing shared configuration directory into 3 profiles:
* "full-cluster": the set of configurations currently in use
* "dev-cluster": a simplified set of mostly existing configurations that
weren't in use.
* "custom": an empty profile for developers to keep non-standard
configurations during complex feature development.
The tooling to switch between profiles will be in a later changeset.
Also drops some unused configuration knobs from the provisioning scripts to
make the next stage of work easier.
Our provisioning process for E2E doesn't require the `depends_on` fields to be
set for client instances, so dropping that field allows all instances to be
started in parallel.
We don't use the extra EBS volumes (they aren't even mounted), so remove them
to reduce costs.
The `-recursor` flag in the Consul service unit files is specific to a given
cloud, but we already have cloud-specific configuration files. Consolidate all
the cloud-specific items into the config.
As we add new Linux targets for E2E, the existing setup.sh script will be used
only for Ubuntu. Rather than have the service and config files echo'd from the
script, move them into files we upload so they can be reused.
Includes some general noise reduction in the setup.sh script and removal of
unused bits.
This changeset moves the installation of Nomad binaries out of the
provisioning framework and into scripts that are installed on the remote host
during AMI builds.
This provides a few advantages:
* The provisioning framework can be reduced in scope (with the goal of moving
most of it into the Terraform stack entirely).
* The scripts can be arbitrarily complex if we don't have to stuff them into
ssh commands, so it's easier to make them idempotent. In this changeset, the
scripts check the version of the existing binary and don't re-download when
using the `--nomad_sha` or `--nomad_version` flags.
* The scripts can be OS/distro specific, which helps in building new test
targets.
Just a smattering of attempted improvements as I read through this
again. Some of my goals:
- Tried to add more high level info to the intro to set the context
- Clarify the difference between *test* dev and *agent* dev workflows
- Add -timeout to provisioning step because cable Internet is lol
