0.3.2 (UNRELEASED)

IMPROVEMENTS:

• core: Rename successfully finished allocations to "Complete" rather than "Dead" for clarity [GH-975]
• cli: alloc-status explains restart decisions [GH-984]
• cli: Destructive commands now require confirmation [GH-983]
• cli: alloc-status display is less verbose by default [GH-946]
• cli: server-members displays the current leader in each region [GH-935]

• client: Nomad fingerprinter to detect client's version [GH-965]
• client: Pass environment variables from host to exec based tasks [GH-970]
• client: Allow task's to be run as particular user [GH-950, GH-978]

• client: Tasks can interpret Meta set in the task group and job [GH-985]

0.3.1

BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITIES:

• Service names that dont conform to RFC-1123 and RFC-2782 will fail validation. To fix, change service name to conform to the RFCs before running the job [GH-915]
• Jobs that downloaded artifacts will have to be updated to the new syntax and be resubmitted. The new syntax consolidates artifacts to the task rather than being duplicated inside each driver config [GH-921]

• cli: Validate job file schemas [GH-900]
• client: Add environment variables for task name, allocation ID/Name/Index [GH-869, GH-896]

• config: Validate Nomad configuration files [GH-910]
• config: Client config allows reserving resources [GH-910]
• driver/docker: Support for ECR [GH-858]
• driver/docker: Periodic Fingerprinting [GH-893]
• driver/docker: Preventing port reservation for log collection on Unix platforms [GH-897]
• driver/rkt: Pass DNS information to rkt driver [GH-892]

• executor/linux: Add /run/resolvconf/ to chroot so DNS works [GH-905]

0.3.0

BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBILITIES:

• Stdout and Stderr log files of tasks have moved from task/local to alloc/logs [GH-851]
• Any users of the runtime environment variable $NOMAD_PORT_ will need to update to the new ${NOMAD_ADDR_} varriable [GH-704]

• Task resources are now validated and enforce minimum resources. If a job specifies resources below the minimum they will need to be updated [GH-739]

• Users of custom restart policies should update to the new syntax which adds a mode field. The mode can be either fail or delay. The default for batch and service jobs is fail and delay respectively [GH-594]
