# Command: config validate
|
|
|
|
The `config validate` command performs validation on a set of Nomad
|
|
configuration files. This is useful to test the Nomad configuration
|
|
without starting the agent.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```plaintext
|
|
nomad config validate <config_path> [<config_path...>]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `config validate` command requires a path to either a single
|
|
configuration file or a directory of configuration files to use for
|
|
configuring the Nomad agent. This option can be specified multiple
|
|
times. If multiple config files are passed, the values from each will
|
|
be merged together. During merging, values from files found later in
|
|
the list are merged over values from previously parsed files.
|
|
|
|
This command cannot operate on partial configuration fragments since
|
|
those won't pass the full agent validation. This command does not
|
|
require an ACL token.
|
|
|
|
Returns 0 if the configuration is valid, or 1 if there are problems.
