Vivek Ratan commented on HADOOP-4931:
-------------------------------------

bq. I think monitoring should be with cluster setup rather than with the 
map/reduce tutorial...
I'm not sure about this, for the following reasons: 
* The cluster setup seems to be for setup required to make sure the cluster 
works correctly - basic, core settings. At least that's my take on it. The TT 
monitoring stuff is an optional feature, likely to be used only by power users.
* Splitting the memory features across three guides (cluster setup, M/R 
tutorial, and Capacity Scheduler) seems excessive. 
* The MR tutorial already had a section on 'Memory management', so it seemed 
like a logical place to place our documentation. 
* You can argue that there are plenty of  parameters described in the MR 
tutorial that are also 'admin features'.

Are there plans to have another guide, something like 'Hadoop features', or 'MR 
features'? Maybe that's the right place for something like this: optional 
features in the system that affect how things work. 

Your other suggestions make sense. I'll incorporate them. 

> Document TaskTracker's memory management functionality and 
> CapacityScheduler's memory based scheduling.
