# Command: job eval
The `job eval` command is used to force an evaluation of a job, given the job
ID.
## Usage
```plaintext
nomad job eval [options] <job_id>
```
The `job eval` command requires a single argument, specifying the job ID to
evaluate. If there is an exact match based on the provided job ID, then the job
will be evaluated, forcing a scheduler run.
When ACLs are enabled, this command requires a token with the `submit-job`
capability for the job's namespace.
## General Options
@include 'general_options.mdx'
## Eval Options
- `-force-reschedule`: `force-reschedule` is used to force placement of failed
allocations. If this is set, failed allocations that are past their reschedule
limit, and those that are scheduled to be replaced at a future time are placed
immediately. This option only places failed allocations if the task group has
rescheduling enabled.
- `-detach`: Return immediately instead of monitoring. A new evaluation ID
will be output, which can be used to examine the evaluation using the
[eval status] command.
- `-verbose`: Show full information.
## Examples
Evaluate the job with ID "job1":
```shell-session
$ nomad job eval job1
==> Monitoring evaluation "0f3bc0f3"
Evaluation triggered by job "test"
Evaluation within deployment: "51baf5c8"
Evaluation status changed: "pending" -> "complete"
==> Evaluation "0f3bc0f3" finished with status "complete"
```
Evaluate the job with ID "job1" and return immediately:
```shell-session
$ nomad job eval -detach job1
Created eval ID: "4947e728"
```
Evaluate the job with ID "job1", and reschedule any eligible failed allocations:
```shell-session
$ nomad job eval -force-reschedule job1
==> Monitoring evaluation "0f3bc0f3"
Evaluation triggered by job "test"
Evaluation within deployment: "51baf5c8"
Evaluation status changed: "pending" -> "complete"
==> Evaluation "0f3bc0f3" finished with status "complete"
```
