I am using Consul 1.6.x for Service Discovery and everything works great since my Consul-Service configuration points to an application that runs on port 8000.
Now that I am running my services through Nomad(application runs on dynamic ports). How to tell nomad to reconfigure the Consul Service to check on the dynamic port.
Any direction is much appreciated.
using port_map coupled with the service stanza will do it for “auto-magically” for you. 
btw, what type of task? (i guess docker) . Could you provide the minimal job definition (remove anything sensitive)

Defining a service with a health check should do it:
