Command: ui

The ui command is used to open the Nomad Web UI.

Usage

nomad ui [options] <identifier>

The ui command can be called with no arguments, in which case the UI homepage will be opened in the default browser.

An identifier may be provided, in which case the UI will be opened to view the details for that object. Supported identifiers are jobs, allocations and nodes.
