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. > Capacity Scheduler needs to re-read its configuration > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4522 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4522 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Vivek Ratan > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
