A blocked deployment is a multiregion 12deployment within a region that has completed within a region but is waiting 13on the other [federated regions]. The `deployment unblock` command can be used 14in cases where a failed peer region is unable to communicate its failed 15deployment status to other regions to force a deployment to complete. 16 17## Usage 18 19```plaintext 20nomad deployment unblock [options] <deployment id> 21``` 22 23The `deployment unblock` command requires a single argument, a deployment ID or 24prefix. 25 26When ACLs are enabled, this command requires a token with the `submit-job` 27and `read-job` capabilities for the deployment's namespace. 28 29## General Options 30 31@include 'general_options.mdx' 32 33## Unblock Options 34 35- `-detach`: Return immediately instead of monitoring.
