The dev mode flag for connect was binding to the default interface's
IP, but this makes for a bad user experience for the CLI which will
default to 127.0.0.1. If we bind to 0.0.0.0 instead the CLI will work
without further configuration by the user.
Consul Connect must route traffic between network namespaces through a
public interface (i.e. not localhost). In order to support testing in
dev mode, users needed to manually set the interface which doesn't
make for a smooth experience.
This commit adds a facility for adding optional parameters to the
`nomad agent -dev` flag and uses it to add a `-dev=connect` flag that
binds to a public interface on the host.
When rendering a task template, the `plugin` function is no longer
permitted by default and will raise an error. An operator can opt-in
to permitting this function with the new `template.function_blacklist`
field in the client configuration.
When rendering a task template, path parameters for the `file`
function will be treated as relative to the task directory by
default. Relative paths or symlinks that point outside the task
directory will raise an error. An operator can opt-out of this
protection with the new `template.disable_file_sandbox` field in the
client configuration.
This exposes a client flag to disable nomad remote exec support in
environments where access to tasks ought to be restricted.
I used `disable_remote_exec` client flag that defaults to allowing
remote exec. Opted for a client config that can be used to disable
remote exec globally, or to a subset of the cluster if necessary.
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.
This commit:
* Improves how we combine the old retry-* fields and the new stanza and
how it is validated
* Handles the new stanza setting start_join
* Fixes integration test to not bind to the standard port and instead be
randomized.
* Simplifies parsing of the old retry_interval
* Fixes the errors from retry join being masked
* Flags get parsed into new server_join stanza
Allow to set the total memory of an agent in its configuration file. This
can be used in case the automatic detection doesn't work or in specific
environments when memory overcommit (using swap for example) can be
desirable.
