Commands: job periodic force
The job periodic force command is used to force the evaluation of a periodic job.

Command: job periodic force

The job periodic force command is used to force the evaluation of a periodic job.

Usage

nomad job periodic force [options] <job id>

The job periodic force command requires a single argument, specifying the ID of the job. This job must be a periodic job. This is used to immediately run a periodic job, even if it violates the job's prohibit_overlap setting.

By default, on successful job submission the command will enter an interactive monitor and display log information detailing the scheduling decisions and placement information for the forced evaluation. The monitor will exit after scheduling has finished or failed.

When ACLs are enabled, this command requires a token with the submit-job capability for the job's namespace. The list-jobs capability is required to run the command with a job prefix instead of the exact job ID. The read-job capability is required to monitor the resulting evaluation when -detach is not used.

General Options

@include 'general_options.mdx'

Run Options

  • -detach: Return immediately instead of monitoring. A new evaluation ID will be output, which can be used to examine the evaluation using the eval status command.

  • -verbose: Show full information.

Examples

Force the evaluation of the job example, monitoring placement:

$ nomad job periodic force example
==> Monitoring evaluation "54b2d6d9"
    Evaluation triggered by job "example/periodic-1555094493"
    Allocation "637aee17" created: node "a35ab8fc", group "cache"
    Allocation "637aee17" status changed: "pending" -> "running" (Tasks are running)
    Evaluation status changed: "pending" -> "complete"
==> Evaluation "54b2d6d9" finished with status "complete"

Force the evaluation of the job example and return immediately:

$ nomad job periodic force -detach example
Force periodic successful
Evaluation ID: 0865fbf3-30de-5f53-0811-821e73e63178
