The RPC handler for scaling a job passes flags to enforce the job modify index
is unchanged when it makes the write to Raft. But its only checking against the
existing job modify index at the time the RPC handler snapshots the state store,
so it can only enforce consistency for its own validation.
In clusters with automated scaling, it would be useful to expose the enforce
index options to the API, so that cluster admins can enforce that scaling only
happens when the job state is consistent with a state they've previously seen in
other API calls. Add this option to the CLI and API and have the RPC handler
check them if asked.
Fixes: https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/issues/23444
state store: call-out to generic update of job recommendations from job update method
recommendations API work, and http endpoint errors for OSS
support for scaling polices in task block of job spec
add query filters for ScalingPolicy list endpoint
command: nomad scaling policy list: added -job and -type
* made api.Scaling.Max a pointer, so we can detect (and complain) when it is neglected
* added checks to HCL parsing that it is present
* when Scaling.Max is absent/invalid, don't return extraneous error messages during validation
* tweak to multiregion handling to ensure that the count is valid on the interpolated regional jobs
resolves#8355
- tg.Count defaults to tg.Scaling.Min if present (falls back on previous default of 1 if Scaling is absent)
- Validate() enforces tg.Scaling.Min <= tg.Count <= tg.Scaling.Max
modification in ApiScalingPolicyToStructs, api.TaskGroup.Validate so that defaults are handled for TaskGroup.Count and
