Nomad kills off healthy allocations on deploy when new allocations fail #6864
Comments
Hi @kaspergrubbe, thanks for taking the time to file this issue. I'm trying to reproduce locally and am having some difficulties. Do you mind sharing any relevant logs or allocation details for the healthy allocations that got killed? Are you able to share the relevant parts of your nginx config for how it relates to the rails task and health checks? |
@drewbailey This happened in our production environment, I'm currently setting up a local version on my Linux machine to replicate the behaviour here, give me a day to see if it happens in another environment as well. |

@drewbailey Ok, you win first round! I'm simply unable to replicate the issue locally as well both with using the terminal command I did however manage to recreate some of it on production: As you can see in my first post we specify a count of 4, however, something have happened where 2 of the healthy containers have been killed off. And when I check the logs it seems like Nomad did ask them to shut down: Nomad alloc status says "alloc not needed due to job update" maybe that's a clue?
Can you tell me how to debug further and where to look? |
@kaspergrubbe Do you mind sharing the full output of |
@drewbailey I will try and dig in the log files as well, in the meantime here's the full output of the command:
I've just now realized that my nodes are resource exhausted, can this cause what I am seeing? |
Hey @kaspergrubbe still looking into this, I don't think that's the cause, those placement metrics show why / how many nodes were ruled out from being a viable placement |
@drewbailey Ok, I will try and replicate it again and fetch the logs again this time. Do I need to run it with DEBUG logging enabled for a better trace? In that case I might need to redeploy some things. |
@kaspergrubbe DEBUG or TRACE would be ideal, if you are on Sorry that I'm unable to reproduce this, I'll be slow to respond over the next two weeks. |

I hope you had a nice holiday season, and a fantastic new years party! I've tried (and failed) yet again to replicate this on my one-node Nomad cluster. But I can make it happen on our production cluster every time now. I've had a look at the look and I don't see the culprit there, I guess I'm not well-versed in the Nomad universe. @drewbailey Let me know if I can do anything to help you debug it more, we could perhaps do a screenshare session if that would be easier for you, I'm in the UTC timezone, but I am flexible. |
@kaspergrubbe thanks for the additional info. Unfortunately I didn't see anything in the logs, curiously I also didn't see eval Are you able to monitor consul at all during the deploy? Are the checks ever passing, then failing or always failing? Just to try, could you change the nginx healthcheck to something different than its upstream rails endpoint? something like what I have below to rule out any sort of weirdness with the two tasks using the same check

@kaspergrubbe if you'd be willing, we have an unofficial debugging tool which may be helpful here, if you are open to trying it, it should automatically collect some helpful output related to the job.

Good catch, however, that didn't seem to solve the issue. I've changed it to that now. I just noticed something funky, it's also possible for our Nomad servers to schedule too many containers, we're having a |
I checked the logs on a Consul server during a failing deploy, but I don't see anything suspicious (not even the deregistering), is there a smarter way to log the state of a Consul cluster than individually on each Consul Server and Client?

I've updated from Consul 1.6.2 (from 1.6.0) in a hope that there was a fix there, but no. @drewbailey I've run the script, but the graphviz tool says there are errors in the file:

@kaspergrubbe thanks, do you have info on the previous deployment? Also, if you don't mind uploading the job-history output for a failed deploy that matches up with the jobs/deploys pasted above that'd be great. Thanks in advance, We have a few ideas that we are trying to reproduce with now. |
Hi @drewbailey Thank you so much for getting back to me, it is very appreciated as we have halted our Nomad rollout because of this issue!
This sounds promising, I can't replicate it locally on my own one-node cluster, but I can replicate it every time on our production cluster. So tell me if there is anything else you want me to test.

Thanks for all of this @kaspergrubbe, its very helpful.. digging into this now, for your question about the 11 allocs, the restart stanza you have dictates the groups behavior on task failure, 0 attemps, mode fail means the allocation itself will not restart, but it will reschedule which you can read more of here https://www.nomadproject.io/docs/job-specification/reschedule.html Something that is interesting and I'll be digging into is alloc |
@kaspergrubbe alright, I've finally got this reproduced on a deployed cluster in aws, will be interesting to dig in and see why it wasn't happening locally. Now that I have it reproduced I'll hopefully have something for you soon. Thanks for your patience and debugging help on this! |
@drewbailey I'm really happy that you can reproduce it! That means that it (hopefully) wasn't me that have misconfigured something. |
Will do, think I should be ok now that I can reproduce it locally. In the mean time, depending on how you want to configure your deploys, disabling rescheduling will fix the immediate issue, though if you end up with a failed task the deploy will hault and essentially fail immediately. |
@kaspergrubbe I created #6936 with reproduction steps and will be working on the issue from there, thanks again for the reproduction help! |
@drewbailey Thanks Drew, I will follow that other issue. Do you know how far back this has been broken? I am currently looking at my options of either downgrading or disabling rescheduling. |
It looks like it could potentially be as far back as 0.8.4 https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#084-june-11-2018 |
@drewbailey Scary it hasn't been noticed earlier, but maybe other users just have very stable jobs and they haven't noticed, I will be disabling rescheduling to mitigate the issue for now. Thanks again! :) |
I'm going to lock this issue because it has been closed for 120 days ⏳. This helps our maintainers find and focus on the active issues. |
Nomad version
Operating system and Environment details
Amazon Linux 2 running on AWS.
Issue
When we are deploying using the Blue/Green canary deployment model we have 4 allocations running (healthy), and we try to boot up 4 new allocations and they fail, Nomad retries that, and somehow Nomad kills off the healthy and running allocations leaving us with no healthy allocations running:
Reproduction steps
Deploy a healthy job, after that deploy a failing job, observe what happens.
Job file
