Sean Owen commented on SPARK-17313:
-----------------------------------

You don't have to run the driver on a laptop or other development machine. You 
can run it on a cluster machine even in client mode, BTW, the same machine 
you'll be running it on in any YARN container.

Supporting the shell in yarn-cluster mode is not the same as using Livy, but it 
accomplishes something like a similar purpose. Why not use Livy? if that 
addresses this use case, then I'd close this.

> Support spark-shell on cluster mode

> The main issue with the current spark shell is that the driver is running on 
> the user machine. If the driver resource requirement is beyond user machine 
> capacity, then spark shell will be useless. If we are to add the cluster 
> mode(Yarn or Mesos ) for spark shell via some sort of proxy where user 
> machine only hosts a rest client to the running driver at the cluster, the 
> shell will be more powerful
