Downgrading the Raft version protocol is not a supported operation.
Checking for a downgrade is hard since this information is not stored in
any persistent place. When a server re-joins a cluster with a prior Raft
version, the Serf tag is updated so Nomad can't tell that the version
changed.
Mixed version clusters must be supported to allow for zero-downtime
rolling upgrades. During this it's expected that the cluster will have
mixed Raft versions. Enforcing consistency strong version consistency
would disrupt this flow.
The approach taken here is to store the Raft version on disk. When the
server starts the `raft_protocol` value is written to the file
`data_dir/raft/version`. If that file already exists, its content is
checked against the current `raft_protocol` value to detect downgrades
and prevent the server from starting.
Any other types of errors are ignore to prevent disruptions that are
outside the control of operators. The only option in cases of an invalid
or corrupt file would be to delete it, making this check useless. So
just overwrite its content with the new version and provide guidance on
how to check that their cluster is an expected state.

This change updates tests to honor `BootstrapExpect` exclusively when
forming test clusters and removes test only knobs, e.g.
`config.DevDisableBootstrap`.
Background:
Test cluster creation is fragile. Test servers don't follow the
BootstapExpected route like production clusters. Instead they start as
single node clusters and then get rejoin and may risk causing brain
split or other test flakiness.
The test framework expose few knobs to control those (e.g.
`config.DevDisableBootstrap` and `config.Bootstrap`) that control
whether a server should bootstrap the cluster. These flags are
confusing and it's unclear when to use: their usage in multi-node
cluster isn't properly documented. Furthermore, they have some bad
side-effects as they don't control Raft library: If
`config.DevDisableBootstrap` is true, the test server may not
immediately attempt to bootstrap a cluster, but after an election
timeout (~50ms), Raft may force a leadership election and win it (with
only one vote) and cause a split brain.
The knobs are also confusing as Bootstrap is an overloaded term. In
BootstrapExpect, we refer to bootstrapping the cluster only after N
servers are connected. But in tests and the knobs above, it refers to
whether the server is a single node cluster and shouldn't wait for any
other server.
Changes:
This commit makes two changes:
First, it relies on `BootstrapExpected` instead of `Bootstrap` and/or
`DevMode` flags. This change is relatively trivial.
Introduce a `Bootstrapped` flag to track if the cluster is bootstrapped.
This allows us to keep `BootstrapExpected` immutable. Previously, the
flag was a config value but it gets set to 0 after cluster bootstrap
completes.
Copy the updated version of freeport (sdk/freeport), and tweak it for use
in Nomad tests. This means staying below port 10000 to avoid conflicts with
the lib/freeport that is still transitively used by the old version of
consul that we vendor. Also provide implementations to find ephemeral ports
of macOS and Windows environments.
Ports acquired through freeport are supposed to be returned to freeport,
which this change now also introduces. Many tests are modified to include
calls to a cleanup function for Server objects.
This should help quite a bit with some flakey tests, but not all of them.
Our port problems will not go away completely until we upgrade our vendor
version of consul. With Go modules, we'll probably do a 'replace' to swap
out other copies of freeport with the one now in 'nomad/helper/freeport'.
- updated region in job metadata that gets persisted to nomad datastore
- fixed many unrelated unit tests that used an invalid region value
(they previously passed because hcl wasn't getting picked up and
the job would default to global region)
Fixes#2478#2474#1995#2294
The new client only handles agent and task service advertisement. Server
discovery is mostly unchanged.
The Nomad client agent now handles all Consul operations instead of the
executor handling task related operations. When upgrading from an
earlier version of Nomad existing executors will be told to deregister
from Consul so that the Nomad agent can re-register the task's services
and checks.
Drivers - other than qemu - now support an Exec method for executing
abritrary commands in a task's environment. This is used to implement
script checks.
Interfaces are used extensively to avoid interacting with Consul in
tests that don't assert any Consul related behavior.
Fixes#2525
We used to be checking a RequireTLS field that was never set. Instead we
can just check the TLSConfig.EnableRPC field and require TLS if it's
enabled.
Added a few unfortunately slow integration tests to assert the intended
behavior of misconfigured RPC TLS.
Also disable a lot of noisy test logging when -v isn't specified.
