Name: `exec`
|
||||
|
||||
TODO
|
||||
The `exec` driver is used to simply execute a particular command for a task.
|
||||
This is the simplest driver and is extremely flexible. In particlar, because
|
||||
it can invoke any command, it can be used to call scripts or other wrappers
|
||||
which provide higher level features.
|
||||
|
||||
## Task Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The `exec` driver supports the following configuration in the job spec:
|
||||
|
||||
* `command` - The command to execute. Must be provided.
|
||||
|
||||
* `args` - The argument list to the command, space seperated. Optional.
|
||||
|
||||
## Client Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
The `exec` driver has no special requirements and can run on all
|
||||
supported operating systems. The resource isolation primitives vary
|
||||
by OS.
|
||||
|
||||
## Client Attributes
|
||||
|
||||
The `exec` driver will set the following client attributes:
|
||||
|
||||
* `driver.exec` - This will always be set to "1", indicating the
|
||||
driver is available.
|
||||
|
||||
## Resource Isolation
|
||||
|
||||
The resource isolation provided varies by the operating system of
|
||||
the client and the configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
On Linux, Nomad will attempt to use cgroups, namespaces, and chroot
|
||||
to isolate the resources of a process. If the Nomad agent is not
|
||||
running as root many of these mechanisms cannot be used.
|
||||
|
||||
As a baseline, the task driver will just execute the command
|
||||
with no additional resource isolation if none are available.
