The version number of the object such as node, service, etc. This is needed to avoid conflicting writes. The client must send the version number along with the modified specification when updating these objects.

This approach ensures safe concurrency and determinism in that the change on the object may not be applied if the version number has changed from the last read. In other words, if two update requests specify the same base version, only one of the requests can succeed. As a result, two separate update requests that happen at the same time will not unintentionally overwrite each other.

User modifiable configuration for a service.

The status of a service update.

The status of the service's tasks. Provided only when requested as part of a ServiceList operation.

The status of the service when it is in one of ReplicatedJob or GlobalJob modes. Absent on Replicated and Global mode services. The JobIteration is an ObjectVersion, but unlike the Service's version, does not need to be sent with an update request.
