Hi *,
I have a set of federated consul datacenters with enabled ACLs and connect. On top of that is a Nomad cluster. As I want to start Nomad jobs with connect enabled.
Everything looks good. But when I try to start this nomad job
job "egw" {
datacenters = ["prod1"]
region = "de-west"
node_pool = "static-clients"
group "egw" {
count = 2
network {
mode = "bridge"
}
service {
name = "egw"
connect {
gateway {
proxy {}
terminating {
service {
name = "postgres"
}
service {
name = "redis-svc"
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
from GitHub - nairnavin/practical-nomad-consul: Set up a 3 Tier application (classic springboot petclinic) in a Nomad / Consul cluster leveraging features of service mesh, ingress and terminating gateways, load balancers etc. I get the error failed to derive SI token: Unexpected response code: 500 (rpc error making call: Local tokens are disabled).
What I see is, that only my primary consul cluster has the “Local” tag in the UI. If I create a token from the UI in one of the secondary datacenters, I cannot see it in the datacenter, where it has been created but only in the primary datacenter.
This article (How Nomad Manages ACL Tokens/Polices for Consul Service Mesh – HashiCorp Help Center) mentions, that SI tokens, that are generated by Nomad are only generated with a Local scope and are no longer replicated.
But how are Nomad created connect jobs supposed to work across federated datacenters, then?
Kind regards,
Töns
