Hemanth Yamijala commented on HADOOP-4035: ------------------------------------------ After a detailed offline conversation with Owen, we decided to not do this for Hadoop 0.19. However, we also reviewed the current solution, and where we want to go, and filed HADOOP-4439 to help us get there easily in future. > Modify the capacity scheduler (HADOOP-3445) to schedule tasks based on memory > requirements and task trackers free memory > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-4035 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4035 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Bug > Components: contrib/capacity-sched > Affects Versions: 0.19.0 > Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala > Assignee: Vinod K V > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.20.0 > > Attachments: 4035.1.patch, HADOOP-4035-20080918.1.txt, > HADOOP-4035-20081006.1.txt, HADOOP-4035-20081006.txt, HADOOP-4035-20081008.txt > > > HADOOP-3759 introduced configuration variables that can be used to specify > memory requirements for jobs, and also modified the tasktrackers to report > their free memory. The capacity scheduler in HADOOP-3445 should schedule > tasks based on these parameters. A task that is scheduled on a TT that uses > more than the default amount of memory per slot can be viewed as effectively > using more than one slot, as it would decrease the amount of free memory on > the TT by more than the default amount while it runs. The scheduler should > make the used capacity account for this additional usage while enforcing > limits, etc. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
