Multiregion deployments use the `NomadTokenID` to allow the deploymentwatcher
to send RPCs between regions with the original submitter's ACL token. This ID
should be filtered from diffs so that it doesn't cause a difference for
purposes of job plans.
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.
Aims to address #8294 and tangentially #8647
This change adds the ability to set the fields `success_before_passing` and
`failures_before_critical` on Consul service check definitions. This is a
feature added to Consul v1.7.0 and later.

Nomad doesn't do much besides pass the fields through to Consul.

The multiregion plan diffs swap the old and new versions for each region when
they're edited (rather than added/removed). The `multiregionRegionDiff`
function call incorrectly reversed its arguments for existing regions.
This PR adds the capability of running Connect Native Tasks on Nomad,
particularly when TLS and ACLs are enabled on Consul.
The `connect` stanza now includes a `native` parameter, which can be
set to the name of task that backs the Connect Native Consul service.
There is a new Client configuration parameter for the `consul` stanza
called `share_ssl`. Like `allow_unauthenticated` the default value is
true, but recommended to be disabled in production environments. When
enabled, the Nomad Client's Consul TLS information is shared with
Connect Native tasks through the normal Consul environment variables.
This does NOT include auth or token information.
If Consul ACLs are enabled, Service Identity Tokens are automatically
and injected into the Connect Native task through the CONSUL_HTTP_TOKEN
environment variable.
Any of the automatically set environment variables can be overridden by
the Connect Native task using the `env` stanza.
Fixes#6083
Part of #6120
Building on the support for enabling connect proxy paths in #7323, this change
adds the ability to configure the 'service.check.expose' flag on group-level
service check definitions for services that are connect-enabled. This is a slight
deviation from the "magic" that Consul provides. With Consul, the 'expose' flag
exists on the connect.proxy stanza, which will then auto-generate expose paths
for every HTTP and gRPC service check associated with that connect-enabled
service.
A first attempt at providing similar magic for Nomad's Consul Connect integration
followed that pattern exactly, as seen in #7396. However, on reviewing the PR
we realized having the `expose` flag on the proxy stanza inseperably ties together
the automatic path generation with every HTTP/gRPC defined on the service. This
makes sense in Consul's context, because a service definition is reasonably
associated with a single "task". With Nomad's group level service definitions
however, there is a reasonable expectation that a service definition is more
abstractly representative of multiple services within the task group. In this
case, one would want to define checks of that service which concretely make HTTP
or gRPC requests to different underlying tasks. Such a model is not possible
with the course `proxy.expose` flag.
Instead, we now have the flag made available within the check definitions themselves.
By making the expose feature resolute to each check, it is possible to have
some HTTP/gRPC checks which make use of the envoy exposed paths, as well as
some HTTP/gRPC checks which make use of some orthongonal port-mapping to do
checks on some other task (or even some other bound port of the same task)
within the task group.
Given this example,
group "server-group" {
network {
mode = "bridge"
port "forchecks" {
to = -1
}
}
service {
name = "myserver"
port = 2000
connect {
sidecar_service {
}
}
check {
name = "mycheck-myserver"
type = "http"
port = "forchecks"
interval = "3s"
timeout = "2s"
method = "GET"
path = "/classic/responder/health"
expose = true
}
}
}
Nomad will automatically inject (via job endpoint mutator) the
extrapolated expose path configuration, i.e.
expose {
path {
path = "/classic/responder/health"
protocol = "http"
local_path_port = 2000
listener_port = "forchecks"
}
}
Documentation is coming in #7440 (needs updating, doing next)
Modifications to the `countdash` examples in https://github.com/hashicorp/demo-consul-101/pull/6
which will make the examples in the documentation actually runnable.
Will add some e2e tests based on the above when it becomes available.
Consul provides a feature of Service Definitions where the tags
associated with a service can be modified through the Catalog API,
overriding the value(s) configured in the agent's service configuration.
To enable this feature, the flag enable_tag_override must be configured
in the service definition.
Previously, Nomad did not allow configuring this flag, and thus the default
value of false was used. Now, it is configurable.
Because Nomad itself acts as a state machine around the the service definitions
of the tasks it manages, it's worth describing what happens when this feature
is enabled and why.
Consider the basic case where there is no Nomad, and your service is provided
to consul as a boring JSON file. The ultimate source of truth for the definition
of that service is the file, and is stored in the agent. Later, Consul performs
"anti-entropy" which synchronizes the Catalog (stored only the leaders). Then
with enable_tag_override=true, the tags field is available for "external"
modification through the Catalog API (rather than directly configuring the
service definition file, or using the Agent API). The important observation
is that if the service definition ever changes (i.e. the file is changed &
config reloaded OR the Agent API is used to modify the service), those
"external" tag values are thrown away, and the new service definition is
once again the source of truth.
In the Nomad case, Nomad itself is the source of truth over the Agent in
the same way the JSON file was the source of truth in the example above.
That means any time Nomad sets a new service definition, any externally
configured tags are going to be replaced. When does this happen? Only on
major lifecycle events, for example when a task is modified because of an
updated job spec from the 'nomad job run <existing>' command. Otherwise,
Nomad's periodic re-sync's with Consul will now no longer try to restore
the externally modified tag values (as long as enable_tag_override=true).
Fixes#2057
Without a `LocalServicePort`, Connect services will try to use the
mapped port even when delivering traffic locally. A user can override
this behavior by pinning the port value in the `service` stanza but
this prevents us from using the Consul service name to reach the
service.
This commits configures the Consul proxy with its `LocalServicePort`
and `LocalServiceAddress` fields.
Adds a check for differences in `job.Diff` so that task group networks
and services, including new Consul connect stanzas, show up in the job
plan outputs.
IOPS have been modelled as a resource since Nomad 0.1 but has never
actually been detected and there is no plan in the short term to add
detection. This is because IOPS is a bit simplistic of a unit to define
the performance requirements from the underlying storage system. In its
current state it adds unnecessary confusion and can be removed without
impacting any users. This PR leaves IOPS defined at the jobspec parsing
level and in the api/ resources since these are the two public uses of
the field. These should be considered deprecated and only exist to allow
users to stop using them during the Nomad 0.9.x release. In the future,
there should be no expectation that the field will exist.
