Canaries for system jobs?

[Andrew Bloomgarden]

Hi folks, I'm experimenting with Nomad primarily for controlling system jobs across a cluster.

In experimentation, the new canary functionality doesn't seem to work with the system scheduler, or rather the flag seems to be just ignored. Would it be feasible and are there plans to enable it for system jobs? What I'd expect to see happen is something like:

* a canary deployment is started with N canaries

* N agents' system jobs are replaced with the new configuration, probably in a rolling update

* promotion continues the update across the rest of the system

Thanks much for Nomad, and especially for the great docs.

Hi Andrew,

We're hoping to add rolling update support for system jobs in 0.7. I think your behavior is what we are planning to implement.

Sorry the docs neglected to mention system jobs are not supported!
