The sidebar navigation tree for the `operator` sub-sub commands is
getting cluttered and we have a new set of commands coming to support
secure variables keyring as well. Move these all under their own
subtrees.
Use the same output format when listing multiple evals in the `eval
list` command and when `eval status <prefix>` matches more than one
eval.
Include the eval namespace in all output formats and always include the
job ID in `eval status` since, even `node-update` evals are related to a
job.
Add Node ID to the evals table output to help differentiate
`node-update` evals.

In addition to jobs, there are other objects in Nomad that have a
specific format and can be provided to commands and API endpoints.
This commit creates a new menu section to hold the specification for
volumes and update the command pages to point to the new centralized
definition.
Redirecting the previous entries is not possible with `redirect.js`
because they are done server-side and URL fragments are not accessible
to detect a match. So we provide hidden anchors with a link to the new
page to guide users towards the new documentation.

The description of `mount_flags` provides incorrect example
of the accepted value format.
This fixes the issue by changing the example from a string
`ro,noatime` to a slice of strings `["ro", "noatime"]`.
Closes#12927Closes#12958
This PR updates the version of redis used in our examples from 3.2 to 7.
The old version is very not supported anymore, and we should be setting
a good example by using a supported version.
The long-form example job is now fixed so that the service stanza uses
nomad as the service discovery provider, and so now the job runs without
a requirement of having Consul running and configured.
In #12324 we made it so that plugins wait until the node drain is
complete, as we do for system jobs. But we neglected to mark the node
drain as complete once only plugins (or system jobs) remaining, which
means that the node drain is left in a draining state until the
`deadline` time expires. This was incorrectly documented as expected
behavior in #12324.
The capacity fields for `create volume` set bounds on the resulting
size of the volume, but the ultimate size of the volume will be
determined by the storage provider (between the min and max). Clarify
this in the documentation and provide a suggestion for how to set a
exact size.
* docs: update json jobs docs
Did you know that Nomad has not 1 but 2 JSON formats for jobs? 2½ if you
want to acknowledge that sometimes our JSON job representations have a
Job top-level wrapper and sometimes do not.
The 2½ formats are:
```
1. HCL JSON
2. Input API JSON (top-level Job field)
2.5. Output API JSON (lacks top-level Job field)
```
`#2` is what our docs consider our API JSON. `#2.5` seems to be an
accident of history we can't fix with breaking API compatibility.
`#1` is an even more interesting accident of history: the `jobspec2`
package automatically detects if the input to Parse is JSON and switches
to a JSON parser. This behavior is undocumented, the format is
unspecified, and there is no official HashiCorp tooling to produce this
JSON from HCL. The plot thickens when you discover popular third party
tools like hcl2json.com and https://github.com/tmccombs/hcl2json seem to
produce JSON that `nomad run` accepts!
Since we have no telemetry around whether or not anyone passes HCL JSON
to `nomad run`, and people don't file bugs around features that Just
Work, I'm choosing to leave that code path in place and *acknowledged
but not suggested* in documentation.
See https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl/issues/498 for a more comprehensive
discussion of what officially supporting HCL JSON in Nomad would look
like.
(I also added some of the missing fields to the (Input API flavor) JSON
Job documentation, but it still needs a lot of work to be
comprehensive.)

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.
* cli: add -json flag to support job commands
While the CLI has always supported running JSON jobs, its support has
been via HCLv2's JSON parsing. I have no idea what format it expects the
job to be in, but it's absolutely not in the same format as the API
expects.
So I ignored that and added a new -json flag to explicitly support *API*
style JSON jobspecs.
The jobspecs can even have the wrapping {"Job": {...}} envelope or not!
* docs: fix example for `nomad job validate`
We haven't been able to validate inside driver config stanzas ever since
the move to task driver plugins. 😭
The new `namespace apply` feature that allows for passing a namespace
specification file detects the difference between an empty namespace
and a namespace specification by checking if the file exists. For most
cases, the file will have an extension like `.hcl` and so there's
little danger that a user will apply a file spec when they intended to
apply a file name.
But because directory names typically don't include an extension,
you're much more likely to collide when trying to `namespace apply` by
name only, and then you get a confusing error message of the form:
Failed to read file: read $namespace: is a directory
Detect the case where the namespace name collides with a directory in
the current working directory, and skip trying to load the directory.
We introduced a `pprof-interval` argument to `operator debug` in #11938, and unfortunately this has resulted in a lot of test flakes. The actual command in use is mostly fine (although I've fixed some quirks here), so what's really happened is that the change has revealed some existing issues in the tests. Summary of changes:
* Make first pprof collection synchronous to preserve the existing
behavior for the common case where the pprof interval matches the
duration.
* Clamp `operator debug` pprof timing to that of the command. The
`pprof-duration` should be no more than `duration` and the
`pprof-interval` should be no more than `pprof-duration`. Clamp the
values rather than throwing errors, which could change the commands
that existing users might already have in debugging scripts
* Testing: remove test parallelism
The `operator debug` tests that stand up servers can't be run in
parallel, because we don't have a way of canceling the API calls for
pprof. The agent will still be running the last pprof when we exit,
and that breaks the next test that talks to that same agent.
(Because you can only run one pprof at a time on any process!)
We could split off each subtest into its own server, but this test
suite is already very slow. In future work we should fix this "for
real" by making the API call cancelable.
* Testing: assert against unexpected errors in `operator debug` tests.
If we assert there are no unexpected error outputs, it's easier for
the developer to debug when something is going wrong with the tests
because the error output will be presented as a failing test, rather
than just a failing exit code check. Or worse, no failing exit code
check!
This also forces us to be explicit about which tests will return 0
exit codes but still emit (presumably ignorable) error outputs.
Additional minor bug fixes (mostly in tests) and test refactorings:
* Fix text alignment on pprof Duration in `operator debug` output
* Remove "done" channel from `operator debug` event stream test. The
goroutine we're blocking for here already tells us it's done by
sending a value, so block on that instead of an extraneous channel
* Event stream test timer should start at current time, not zero
* Remove noise from `operator debug` test log output. The `t.Logf`
calls already are picked out from the rest of the test output by
being prefixed with the filename.
* Remove explicit pprof args so we use the defaults clamped from
duration/interval
Pass-through the `-secret` and `-parameter` flags to allow setting
parameters for the snapshot and overriding the secrets we've stored on
the CSI volume in the state store.
When a node is drained, system jobs are left until last so that
operators can rely on things like log shippers running even as their
applications are getting drained off. Include CSI plugins in this set
so that Controller plugins deployed as services can be handled as
gracefully as Node plugins that are running as system jobs.
The previous output of the `nomad server members` command would output a
column named `Protocol` that displayed the Serf protocol being currently
used by servers.
This is not a configurable option, so it holds very little value to
operators. It is also easy to confuse it with the Raft Protocol version,
which is configurable and highly relevant to operators.
This commit replaces the previous `Protocol` column with the new `Raft
Version`. It also updates the `-detailed` flag to be called `-verbose`
so it matches other commands. The detailed output now also outputs the
same information as the standard output with the addition of the
previous `Protocol` column and `Tags`.
The RPC for listing volume snapshots requires a plugin ID. Update the
`volume snapshot list` command to find the specific plugin from the
provided prefix.
The examples for `nomad volume create` and `nomad volume register` are
not setting `mount_flags` using an array of strings.
This fixes the issue by changing the example to be `mount_flags =
["noatime"]`.
The `nomad operator raft` and `nomad operator snapshot state`
subcommands for inspecting on-disk raft state were hidden and
undocumented. Expose and document these so that advanced operators
have support for these tools.
