I am in a restricted environment where I cannot install Docker or Node.JS . Anyone have a simple nomad JOB thatI can test with ? I have created my first cluster and would love to try a job .
I did create a job using this link
Running bash scripts as a task in nomad using raw_exec driver
but I am getting the following error
Task Group “cache” (failed to place 1 allocation):
Constraint “missing drivers” : 4 nodes excluded by filter .
I see the job in the UI but it shows pending and on my command line it shows “deployment in progress” perhaps a simple job is not my problem but would love to try something different .
Any help is appreciated
Hi
@sammy676776
!
For the most simple job imaginable, I typically use this - which just calls sleep using the raw_exec driver
job "example" {
group "group1" {
task "sleep" {
driver = "raw_exec"
config {
command = "sleep"
args = ["infinity"]
resources {
cpu = 10
memory = 10
For a simple HTTP server, I like to use this job which just uses python3’s built-in http.server module
job "example2" {
group "group" {
network {
mode = "host"
port "http" { static = 8888 }
task "pyhttp" {
driver = "raw_exec"
config {
command = "python3"
args = ["-m", "http.server", "${NOMAD_PORT_http}", "--directory", "/tmp"]
service {
name = "py"
port = "http"
provider = "nomad"
check {
type = "http"
path = "/"
interval = "3s"
timeout = "1s"
Also note that raw_exec driver is not available by default on normal clusters -you have to enable it manually as a plugin option
Perhaps there is some other issue going on in my new cluster that I built as even this simple job failed .
in my Server.hcl I have
> plugin "raw_exec" {
> config {
> enabled = true
> no_cgroups = true
client.hcl
options {
"driver.allowlist" = "raw_exec"
plugin "raw_exec" {
config {
enabled = true
no_cgroups = true
When I submit the job it appears in the UI but shows failed . It also shows the alloc and clients . How can I be sure that the server has communicated to clients properly ? Is there anything I can check ? J
I ran “nomad server members -detailed” and I can see all server details including the clients . I can go to UI and see both servers and clients . When I run the job does it deploy to the clients and if it was successful will it say something in client or server log ? If so where ?
thanks in advance
Meant to say I also ran “nomad node status -stats” and it shows all clients . I am running your “sleep” raw_exec job and here is the status
