Nomad

In this tutorial, you will clean up the Nomad jobs that are running in the cluster and stop or destroy the cluster.

Clean up the application

Stop and clean up the employee job. You can remove the -purge flag from the following commands if you want to keep the job data around for debugging or further investigation.

$ nomad job stop -purge pytechco-employee

Then, do the same with the webapp job.

$ nomad job stop -purge pytechco-web==> 2023-03-10T12:24:45-05:00: Monitoring evaluation "d4079a21"    2023-03-10T12:24:45-05:00: Evaluation triggered by job "pytechco-web"    2023-03-10T12:24:45-05:00: Evaluation within deployment: "cdb7d282"    2023-03-10T12:24:45-05:00: Evaluation status changed: "pending" -> "complete"==> 2023-03-10T12:24:45-05:00: Evaluation "d4079a21" finished with status "complete"==> 2023-03-10T12:24:45-05:00: Monitoring deployment "cdb7d282"  ✓ Deployment "cdb7d282" successful        2023-03-10T12:24:45-05:00    ID          = cdb7d282    Job ID      = pytechco-web    Job Version = 0    Status      = successful    Description = Deployment completed successfully        Deployed    Task Group  Desired  Placed  Healthy  Unhealthy  Progress Deadline    ptc-web     1        1       1        0          2023-03-10T17:26:57Z

Then, the database job.

$ nomad job stop -purge pytechco-redis==> 2023-03-10T12:25:00-05:00: Monitoring evaluation "25608f76"    2023-03-10T12:25:00-05:00: Evaluation triggered by job "pytechco-redis"    2023-03-10T12:25:00-05:00: Evaluation within deployment: "0ea05651"    2023-03-10T12:25:00-05:00: Evaluation status changed: "pending" -> "complete"==> 2023-03-10T12:25:00-05:00: Evaluation "25608f76" finished with status "complete"==> 2023-03-10T12:25:00-05:00: Monitoring deployment "0ea05651"  ✓ Deployment "0ea05651" successful        2023-03-10T12:25:00-05:00    ID          = 0ea05651    Job ID      = pytechco-redis    Job Version = 0    Status      = successful    Description = Deployment completed successfully        Deployed    Task Group  Desired  Placed  Healthy  Unhealthy  Progress Deadline    ptc-redis   1        1       1        0          2023-03-10T17:26:23Z

Finally, stop and clean up the setup job.

$ nomad job stop -purge pytechco-setup

Clean up the cluster

Clean up the resources in use by stopping Nomad if you are running a local cluster or by destroying the cloud infrastructure with Terraform.

Open the terminal tab running the Nomad dev agent and press CTRL+C to stop it.

Navigate back to the directory from where you ran the Terraform apply command.

$ cd ../aws

Destroy the resources. Respond yes to the prompt to confirm the operation.

$ terraform destroy
