--------------------------------------
Summary: Allow multiple executors per worker in Standalone mode
Key: SPARK-1706
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1706
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Spark Core
Reporter: Patrick Wendell
Fix For: 1.1.0
Right now if people want to launch multiple executors on each machine they need
to start multiple standalone workers. This is not too difficult, but it means
you have extra JVM's sitting around.
We should just allow users to set a number of cores they want per-executor in
standalone mode and then allow packing multiple executors on each node. This
would make standalone mode more consistent with YARN in the way you request
resources.
It's not too big of a change as far as I can see. You'd need to:
1. Introduce a configuration for how many cores you want per executor.
2. Change the scheduling logic in Master.scala to take this into account.
3. Change CoarseGrainedSchedulerBackend to not assume a 1<->1 correspondence
between hosts and executors.
And maybe modify a few other places.
