-----------------------------------
[~zhanglong2015] Hi, do you have any update for this? We are also looking at
multi framework and would need this feature in the near future.
Thanks!

> Problems
> We are from eBay platform team. Previously, we used marathon to generate
> Jenkins master instance in dedicated vms and recieve resource offer from same
> dedicated vms. For the details, please refer to
> http://www.ebaytechblog.com/2014/04/04/delivering-ebays-ci-solution-with-apache-mesos-part-i/#.VNQUuC6_SPU
> Now, we found Aurora is more stable and powerful. We are moving from Marathon
> to Aurora. During the move, we found there is no mesos role in Aurora now.
> But we need use mesos role way to solve the problem in section "Frameworks
> stopped receiving offers after a while" of the given url.
> Here is a snippet of the problem description:
> We noticed occurred after we used Marathon to create the initial set of CI
> masters. As those CI masters started registering themselves as frameworks,
> Marathon stopped receiving any offers from Mesos; essentially, no new CI
> masters could be launched. Let’s start with Marathon. In the DRF model, it
> was unfair to treat Marathon in the same bucket/role alongside hundreds of
> connected Jenkins frameworks. After launching all these Jenkins frameworks,
> Marathon had a large resource share and Mesos would aggressively offer
> resources to frameworks that were using little or no resources. Marathon was
> placed last in priority and got starved out.
> We decided to define a dedicated Mesos role for Marathon and to have all of
> the Mesos slaves that were reserved for Jenkins master instances support that
> Mesos role. Jenkins frameworks were left with the default role “”.* This
> solved the problem – Mesos offered resources per role and hence Marathon
> never got starved out. A framework with a special role will get resource
> offers from both slaves supporting that special role and also from the
> default role “”.** However, since we were using placement constraints,
> Marathon accepted resource offers only from slaves that supported both the
> role and the placement constraints.*
> Solution
> So we add role feature is the source code to solve the problem in same way:
> When accept a resource offer, Aurora will send back the needed resources to
> Mesos with the mesos role in resource offer.
> How to configure the Mesos role:
> 1.Add cmd option --mesos_role=${Mesos role name} when start Aurora scheduler.
> We change the test cases according code change. Each changed test case is
> green
