Hi, so I want to launch a job with the only purpose of installing service tags in consul.
When I try something simple like:
task "noop" {
driver = "exec"
}
It sortof works, but nomad seems to have trouble at times while updating the task, seemingly getting stuck on the old task. What is the correct way to do this?
I would be curious to understand the use case in doing this to ensure there is not a better approach?
There is not exactly a correct way to do this, however, I would suggest using a pause container such as https://gcr.io/google_containers/pause which should behave correctly.
Yeah, so I have a traefik load balencer setup, and I would like to setup some consul service keys so that I can setup a traefik load router to do a redirect. In this specific instance I would like it in nomad as I would like to eventually transition the service to nomad and this exists as a transition. But additionally, nomad jobs seem to be the best way to manage my traefik configuration.
