Resolution: Not A Problem
No longer a problem with Flip-6
> Add container allocation timeout to YARN CLI
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-3003
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3003
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: YARN
> Affects Versions: 0.10.0
> Reporter: Ufuk Celebi
> Priority: Major
>
> Programs submitted via {{bin/flink run -m yarn-cluster}} start a short-lived
> YARN sessions before submitting the job. The job is only submitted when all
> resources have been allocated. All allocated containers are "blocked" by the
> to be submitted job and the cluster is only partially allocated.
> If you have multiple submissions like this with partial allocations, you can
> block the whole YARN cluster (e.g. 10 containers in total and two sessions
> want 6 containers each and both have allocated 5).
> A simple work around for these situations is to add an allocation timeout
> after which the YARN sessions fails and releases all the resources.
> [Other strategies like wait for X amount of time for Y containers, but then
> go with what you have if you don't get all are also possible.]
