Ease spinning up a cluster, where binaries are fetched from arbitrary
urls. These could be CircleCI `build-binaries` job artifacts, or
presigned S3 urls.

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.
Ensure that the e2e clusters are isolated and never attempt to autojoin
with another e2e cluster.
This ensures that each cluster servers have a unique `ConsulAutoJoin`,
to be used for discovery.
Our dnsmasq configuration needs host-specific data that we can't configure in
the AMI build. But configuring this in userdata leads to a race between
userdata execution, docker.service startup, and dnsmasq.service startup. So
rather than letting dnsmasq come up with incorrect configuration and then
modifying it after the fact, do the configuration in the service's prestart,
and have it kick off a Docker restart when we're done.
The cloud-init configuration runs on boot, which can result in a race
condition between that and service startup. This has caused provisioning
failures because Nomad expects the userdata to have configured a host volume
directory. Diagnosing this was also compounded by a warning being fired by
systemd for the Nomad unit file.
* Update the location of the `StartLimitIntervalSec` field to it's
post-systemd-230 location.
* Ensure that the weekly AMI build is up-to-date to reduce the risk of
unexpected system software changes.
* Move the host volume to a directory we can set up at AMI build time rather
than in userdata.
Small changes to the Windows 2016 Packer build for debuggability of
provisioning:
* improve verbosity of powershell error handling
* remove unused "tools" installation
* use ssh communicator for Packer to improve Packer build times and eliminate
deprecated winrm remote access (unavailable from current macOS)
The base Ubuntu AMI modifies apt sources during cloud-init. But the Packer
build can potentially start the setup script before that work is done,
resulting in errors trying to install base system dependencies like
`dnsmasq`. Delay the setup long enough to lose the race with cloud-init.
We intend to expand the nightly E2E test to cover multiple distros and
platforms. Change the naming structure for "Linux client" to the more precise
"Ubuntu Bionic", and "Windows" to "Windows 2016" to make it easier to add new
targets without additional refactoring.
Instead of hard-coding the base AMI for our Packer image for Ubuntu, use the
latest from Canonical so that we always have their current kernel patches.
Provisions vault with the policies described in the Nomad Vault integration
guide, and drops a configuration file for Nomad vault server configuration
with its token. The vault root token is exposed to the E2E runner so that
tests can write additional policies to vault.
Adds a `nomad_acls` flag to our Terraform stack that bootstraps Nomad ACLs via
a `local-exec` provider. There's no way to set the `NOMAD_TOKEN` in the Nomad
TF provider if we're bootstrapping in the same Terraform stack, so instead of
using `resource.nomad_acl_token`, we also bootstrap a wide-open anonymous
policy. The resulting management token is exported as an environment var with
`$(terraform output environment)` and tests that want stricter ACLs will be
able to write them using that token.
This should also provide a basis to do similar work with Consul ACLs in the
future.
Have Terraform run the target-specific `provision.sh`/`provision.ps1` script
rather than the test runner code which needs to be customized for each
distro. Use Terraform's detection of variable value changes so that we can
re-run the provisioning without having to re-install Nomad on those specific
hosts that need it changed.
Allow the configuration "profile" (well-known directory) to be set by a
Terraform variable. The default configurations are installed during Packer
build time, and symlinked into the live configuration directory by the
provision script. Detect changes in the file contents so that we only upload
custom configuration files that have changed between Terraform runs
* remove outdated references to envchain in documentation
* add new host volume locations in userdata
* don't exit the entire script during provisioning, just return
The `-recursor` flag in the Consul service unit files is specific to a given
cloud, but we already have cloud-specific configuration files. Consolidate all
the cloud-specific items into the config.
As we add new Linux targets for E2E, the existing setup.sh script will be used
only for Ubuntu. Rather than have the service and config files echo'd from the
script, move them into files we upload so they can be reused.
Includes some general noise reduction in the setup.sh script and removal of
unused bits.
This changeset moves the installation of Nomad binaries out of the
provisioning framework and into scripts that are installed on the remote host
during AMI builds.
This provides a few advantages:
* The provisioning framework can be reduced in scope (with the goal of moving
most of it into the Terraform stack entirely).
* The scripts can be arbitrarily complex if we don't have to stuff them into
ssh commands, so it's easier to make them idempotent. In this changeset, the
scripts check the version of the existing binary and don't re-download when
using the `--nomad_sha` or `--nomad_version` flags.
* The scripts can be OS/distro specific, which helps in building new test
targets.
By default, Docker containers get /etc/resolv.conf bound into the container
with the localhost entry stripped out. In order to resolve using the host's
dnsmasq, we need to make sure the container uses the docker0 IP as its
nameserver and that dnsmasq is listening on that port and forwarding to either
the AWS VPC DNS (so that we can query private resources like EFS) or to the
Consul DNS.

There have been a number of bug fixes and features particularly around
Connect that will help us in Nomad's e2e tests. Upgrade Consul in our
packer builder so e2e can make use of the new version.
This changeset adds volumes but does not mount them to instances so
that we can test the mounting ("staging") via CSI plugins. The CSI
plugins themselves will be installed as Nomad jobs.
In order to ensure we can always mount the EFS volume, this changeset
pins the deployment of the cluster to a specific subnet. In future
work we should spread the cluster out among several AZs and test that
behavior explicitly.
This changeset is part of the work to improve our E2E provisioning
process to allow our upgrade tests:
* Move more of the setup into the AMI image creation so it's a little
more obvious to provisioning config authors which bits are essential
to deploying a specific version of Nomad.
* Make the service file update do a systemd daemon-reload so that we
can update an already-running cluster with the same script we use to
deploy it initially.
