Benjamin Mahler commented on MESOS-1474:
----------------------------------------
[~nekto0n], sorry I was being intentionally vague to express the desires rather
than the solutions.
For quite some time we have been discussing the notion of an "inverse" resource
offer as an {{Event}}. An "inverse" resource offer means that Mesos is
requesting resources _back_ from the framework within some time interval. E.g.
1 minute, 1 hour, or in your example, 1 month. But, I would like this ticket to
express the requirements more so than the abstractions needed to solve them, so
expect to see discussion around inverse offers as things progress!
> Provide cluster maintenance primitives for operators.

> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Epic
> Components: framework, master, slave
> Reporter: Benjamin Mahler
>
> Normally cluster upgrades can be done seamlessly using the built-in slave
> recovery feature. However, there are situations where operators want to be
> able to perform destructive maintenance operations on machines:
> * Non-recoverable slave upgrades.
> * Machine reboots.
> * Kernel upgrades.
> * etc.
> In these situations, best practice is to perform rolling maintenance in large
> batches of machines. This can be problematic for frameworks when many related
> tasks are located within a batch of machines going for maintenance.
> There are a few primitives of interest here:
> * Provide a way for operators to fully shutdown a slave (killing all tasks
> underneath it).
> * Provide a way for operators to mark specific slaves as undergoing
> maintenance. This means that no more offers are being sent for these slaves,
> and no new tasks will launch on them.
> * Provide a way for frameworks to be notified when resources are requested to
> be relinquished. This gives the framework to proactively move a task before
> it is forcibly killed. It also allows the automation of operations like:
> "please drain these slaves within 1 hour."
