Qemu Ports Not Mapping

[tschmi5]

Nomad Version 1.0.3

I am using a Nomad 1.0.3/ Consul 1.9.3/ Centos 7 Running within VirtualBox VMs.

Running Nomad & Consul as root

It appears as if the networking/port configuration is not working correctly for the Qemu Driver. I have tried all the port configurations and none are exposing the VM port (8080) I have. I have verified through several methods that the VM is not the issue and port 8080 is exposed on all clients.

HCL Config

job "javaVM" {
  datacenters = ["dc1"]

  group "vms" {
    network {  
      // I have also tried dynamic here to no avail
      port "http" {
        static = 8080
      }
    }

    ephemeral_disk {
      size = 1024
    }

    task "petclinicvm" {
      # The "driver" parameter specifies the task driver that should be used to
      # run the task.
      driver = "qemu"

      config {
        image_path = "local/java-petclinic.qcow2"
        port_map {
      	  http = 8080
        }
        // I have also tried directly setting it but this causes the task to fail
        // args = [
        //  "-net user,hostfwd=tcp::8080-:8080",
        //  "-net nic"
        // ]
      }

I found this in the Interweb Ethers so Im not sure if this truly means much but it appears no ports configs are being passed to the Qemu command when run

[root@client2 ~]# ps -ef | awk -e '/qemu/ && !/awk/' | sed -e 's/[^/]*//' -e 's/ -/\n\t-/g'
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm
	-machine type=pc,accel=tcg
	-name java-petclinic.qcow2
	-m 2048M
	-drive file=local/java-petclinic.qcow2
	-nographic

The last anecdote I would like to add is that when I setup qemu the command for the binary is 'qemu-kvm' and I just created a link within the path named 'qemu-system-x86_64'. As far as I can tell it seems to be the same thing but renamed.

Am I missing something?

Hi @tschmi5! You're not missing anything... we got network isolation working for QEMU recently #9860 but we still need to get the port mapping fixed. We have a draft PR open at #10035 but we need to get that re-assigned to finish it up.

Hello ! Any news on this issue ? I can't use any qemu VM with nomad if I can't access it :(

Hello I have the same issue. port_map not working with qemu driver.

[jhillyerd]

Why is qemu config.port_map in the docs if it is not implemented? This is misleading.
