Kannan Rajah commented on MESOS-1279:
-------------------------------------
This JIRA has not been updated in a year. This feature will benefit Apache
Myriad which launches place holder tasks to represent the YARN containers.
These container sizes will keep varying and so we need a way to resize the
place holder tasks to avoid wasting resources. Currently, we are thinking of a
workaround in Myriad itself. But I would like to know if there is a plan on
when the feature will be implemented.
> Add resize task primitive
> -------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-1279
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1279
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: c++ api, master, slave
> Reporter: Niklas Quarfot Nielsen
>
> As mentioned in MESOS-938, one way to support task replacement and scaling
> could be to split the responsibility into several smaller primitives for 1)
> reducing complexity 2) Make it easier to comprehend and 3) easier and
> incremental in implementation.
> resizeTask() would be the primitive to either
> 1) Scale a running task's resources down
> 2) Scale a running task's resources up by using extra auxiliary offers.
