Docs: Nomad job name vs job ID confusion

[dpogorzelski]

Nomad version

1.7.5

Operating system and Environment details

Debian 12

Issue

Docs at https://developer.hashicorp.com/nomad/docs/job-specification/job say that Job names are unique per region or namespace. which does not seem to be accurate as one can have multiple jobs with identical name= attribute in the same region and namespace.

Reproduction steps

Expected Result

Actual Result

Job file (if appropriate)

Nomad Server logs (if appropriate)

Nomad Client logs (if appropriate)
