Vivek Ratan commented on HADOOP-4522:
-------------------------------------

bq. is there some part of the system other than the scheduler that needs to 
look at queues? 
bq. Beyond scheduling, has there been a need to have the system re-read its 
configuration?

Access control for queues (whether queues can accept jobs from particular 
users) is system-wide and independent of schedulers. I think we'll want to 
support dynamic updates to access control sooner than later. You'll certainly 
want to add new users or remove users from a queue's access control fairly 
often. You probably don't want to restart the JT each time you want to make 
such a change.

> An external application (an Ops script, or some CLI-based tool) can change 
> the configuration of the Capacity Scheduler (change the capacities of various 
> queues, for example) by updating its config file. This application then needs 
> to tell the Capacity Scheduler that its config has changed, which causes the 
> Scheduler to re-read its configuration. It's possible that the Capacity 
> Scheduler may need to interact with external applications in other similar 
> ways.
