System and sysbatch jobs don't support the reschedule block, because we'd always
replace allocations back onto the same node. The job validation for system jobs
asserts that the user hasn't set a `reschedule` block so that users aren't
submitting jobs expecting it to be supported. But this validation was missing
for sysbatch jobs.
Validate that sysbatch jobs don't have a reschedule block.

When a task included a template block, Nomad was adding a Consul
identity by default which allowed the template to use Consul API
template functions even when they were not needed or desired.
This change removes the implict addition of Consul identities to
tasks when they include a template block. Job specification
authors will now need to add a Consul identity or Consul block to
their task if they have a template which uses Consul API functions.
This change also removes the default addition of a Consul block to
all task groups registered and processed by the API package.
The group level fields stop_after_client_disconnect,
max_client_disconnect, and prevent_reschedule_on_lost were deprecated in
Nomad 1.8 and replaced by field in the disconnect block. This change
removes any logic related to those deprecated fields.

* jobspec: add a chown option to artifact block
This PR adds a boolean 'chown' field to the artifact block.
It indicates whether the Nomad client should chown the downloaded files
and directories to be owned by the task.user. This is useful for drivers
like raw_exec and exec2 which are subject to the host filesystem user
permissions structure. Before, these drivers might not be able to use or
manage the downloaded artifacts since they would be owned by the root
user on a typical Nomad client configuration.
* api: no need for pointer of chown field
this is the CE side of an Enterprise-only feature.
a job trying to use this in CE will fail to validate.
to enable daily-scheduled execution entirely client-side,
a job may now contain:
task "name" {
schedule {
cron {
start = "0 12 * * * *" # may not include "," or "/"
end = "0 16" # partial cron, with only {minute} {hour}
timezone = "EST" # anything in your tzdb
}
}
...
and everything about the allocation will be placed as usual,
but if outside the specified schedule, the taskrunner will block
on the client, waiting on the schedule start, before proceeding
with the task driver execution, etc.
this includes a taksrunner hook, which watches for the end of
the schedule, at which point it will kill the task.
then, restarts-allowing, a new task will start and again block
waiting for start, and so on.
this also includes all the plumbing required to pipe API calls
through from command->api->agent->server->client, so that
tasks can be force-run, force-paused, or resume the schedule
on demand.
This PR is the first on two that will implement the new Disconnect block. In this PR the new block is introduced to be backwards compatible with the fields it will replace. For more information refer to this RFC and this ticket.

Some users with batch workloads or short-lived prestart tasks want to derive a
Vaul token, use it, and then allow it to expire without requiring a constant
refresh. Add the `vault.allow_token_expiration` field, which works only with the
Workload Identity workflow and not the legacy workflow.
When set to true, this disables the client's renewal loop in the
`vault_hook`. When Vault revokes the token lease, the token will no longer be
valid. The client will also now automatically detect if the Vault auth
configuration does not allow renewals and will disable the renewal loop
automatically.
Note this should only be used when a secret is requested from Vault once at the
start of a task or in a short-lived prestart task. Long-running tasks should
never set `allow_token_expiration=true` if they obtain Vault secrets via
`template` blocks, as the Vault token will expire and the template runner will
continue to make failing requests to Vault until the `vault_retry` attempts are
exhausted.
Fixes: https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/issues/8690
This commit introduces the parameter preventRescheduleOnLost which indicates that the task group can't afford to have multiple instances running at the same time. In the case of a node going down, its allocations will be registered as unknown but no replacements will be rescheduled. If the lost node comes back up, the allocs will reconnect and continue to run.
In case of max_client_disconnect also being enabled, if there is a reschedule policy, an error will be returned.

To support Workload Identity with Consul for templates, we want templates to be
able to use the WI created at the task scope (either implicitly or set by the
user). But to allow different tasks within a group to be assigned to different
clusters as we're doing for Vault, we need to be able to set the `consul` block
with its `cluster` field at the task level to override the group.
This PR introduces updates to the jobspec required for workload identity support for services.

Allows for multiple `identity{}` blocks for tasks along with user-specified audiences. This is a building block to allow workload identities to be used with Consul, Vault and 3rd party JWT based auth methods.
Expiration is still unimplemented and is necessary for JWTs to be used securely, so that's up next.

This feature is necessary when user want to explicitly re-render all templates on task restart.
E.g. to fetch all new secrets from Vault, even if the lease on the existing secrets has not been expired.
This complements the `env` parameter, so that the operator can author
tasks that don't share their Vault token with the workload when using
`image` filesystem isolation. As a result, more powerful tokens can be used
in a job definition, allowing it to use template stanzas to issue all kinds of
secrets (database secrets, Vault tokens with very specific policies, etc.),
without sharing that issuing power with the task itself.
This is accomplished by creating a directory called `private` within
the task's working directory, which shares many properties of
the `secrets` directory (tmpfs where possible, not accessible by
`nomad alloc fs` or Nomad's web UI), but isn't mounted into/bound to the
container.
If the `disable_file` parameter is set to `false` (its default), the Vault token
is also written to the NOMAD_SECRETS_DIR, so the default behavior is
backwards compatible. Even if the operator never changes the default,
they will still benefit from the improved behavior of Nomad never reading
the token back in from that - potentially altered - location.
When the server restarts for the upgrade, it loads the `structs.Job` from the
Raft snapshot/logs. The jobspec has long since been parsed, so none of the
guards around the default value are in play. The empty field value for `Enabled`
is the zero value, which is false.
This doesn't impact any running allocation because we don't replace running
allocations when either the client or server restart. But as soon as any
allocation gets rescheduled (ex. you drain all your clients during upgrades),
it'll be using the `structs.Job` that the server has, which has `Enabled =
false`, and logs will not be collected.
This changeset fixes the bug by adding a new field `Disabled` which defaults to
false (so that the zero value works), and deprecates the old field.
Fixes#17076
Some Nomad users ship application logs out-of-band via syslog. For these users
having `logmon` (and `docker_logger`) running is unnecessary overhead. Allow
disabling the logmon and pointing the task's stdout/stderr to /dev/null.
This changeset is the first of several incremental improvements to log
collection short of full-on logging plugins. The next step will likely be to
extend the internal-only task driver configuration so that cluster
administrators can turn off log collection for the entire driver.

Fixes: #11175

Implement the new `nomad job restart` command that allows operators to
restart allocations tasks or reschedule then entire allocation.
Restarts can be batched to target multiple allocations in parallel.
Between each batch the command can stop and hold for a predefined time
or until the user confirms that the process should proceed.
This implements the "Stateless Restarts" alternative from the original
RFC
(https://gist.github.com/schmichael/e0b8b2ec1eb146301175fd87ddd46180).
The original concept is still worth implementing, as it allows this
functionality to be exposed over an API that can be consumed by the
Nomad UI and other clients. But the implementation turned out to be more
complex than we initially expected so we thought it would be better to
release a stateless CLI-based implementation first to gather feedback
and validate the restart behaviour.

When a Nomad agent starts and loads jobs that already existed in the
cluster, the default template uid and gid was being set to 0, since this
is the zero value for int. This caused these jobs to fail in
environments where it was not possible to use 0, such as in Windows
clients.
In order to differentiate between an explicit 0 and a template where
these properties were not set we need to use a pointer.
This PR adds some NSD check status output to the CLI.
1. The 'nomad alloc status' command produces nsd check summary output (if present)
2. The 'nomad alloc checks' sub-command is added to produce complete nsd check output (if present)
UID/GID 0 is usually reserved for the root user/group. While Nomad
clients are expected to run as root it may not always be the case.
Setting these values as -1 if not defined will fallback to the pervious
behaviour of not attempting to set file ownership and use whatever
UID/GID the Nomad agent is running as. It will also keep backwards
compatibility, which is specially important for platforms where this
feature is not supported, like Windows.
* Allow specification of CSI staging and publishing directory path
* Add website documentation for stage_publish_dir
* Replace erroneous reference to csi_plugin.mount_config with csi_plugin.mount_dir
* Avoid requiring CSI plugins to be redeployed after introducing StagePublishDir
After a more detailed analysis of this feature, the approach taken in
PR #12449 was found to be not ideal due to poor UX (users are
responsible for setting the entity alias they would like to use) and
issues around jobs potentially masquerading itself as another Vault
entity.
Move some common Vault API data struct decoding out of the Vault client
so it can be reused in other situations.
Make Vault job validation its own function so it's easier to expand it.
Rename the `Job.VaultPolicies` method to just `Job.Vault` since it
returns the full Vault block, not just their policies.
Set `ChangeMode` on `Vault.Canonicalize`.
Add some missing tests.
Allows specifying an entity alias that will be used by Nomad when
deriving the task Vault token.
An entity alias assigns an indentity to a token, allowing better control
and management of Vault clients since all tokens with the same indentity
alias will now be considered the same client. This helps track Nomad
activity in Vault's audit logs and better control over Vault billing.
Add support for a new Nomad server configuration to define a default
entity alias to be used when deriving Vault tokens. This default value
will be used if the task doesn't have an entity alias defined.
This PR exposes the following existing`consul-template` configuration options to Nomad jobspec authors in the `{job.group.task.template}` stanza.
- `wait`
It also exposes the following`consul-template` configuration to Nomad operators in the `{client.template}` stanza.
- `max_stale`
- `block_query_wait`
- `consul_retry`
- `vault_retry`
- `wait`
Finally, it adds the following new Nomad-specific configuration to the `{client.template}` stanza that allows Operators to set bounds on what `jobspec` authors configure.
- `wait_bounds`

Add a new driver capability: RemoteTasks.
When a task is run by a driver with RemoteTasks set, its TaskHandle will
be propagated to the server in its allocation's TaskState. If the task
is replaced due to a down node or draining, its TaskHandle will be
propagated to its replacement allocation.
This allows tasks to be scheduled in remote systems whose lifecycles are
disconnected from the Nomad node's lifecycle.
See https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad-driver-ecs for an example ECS
remote task driver.
