rahul k singh updated MAPREDUCE-1105:
-------------------------------------

    Release Note: 
Replaced the existing max task limits variables 
"mapred.capacity-scheduler.queue.<queue-name>.max.map.slots" and 
"mapred.capacity-scheduler.queue.<queue-name>.max.reduce.slots"  with  
"mapred.capacity-scheduler.queue.<queue-name>.maximum-capacity" . 

max task limit variables were used to throttle the queue, i.e, these were the 
hard limit and not allowing queue to grow further
maximum-capacity variable defines a limit beyond which a queue cannot use the 
capacity of the cluster. This provides a means to limit how much excess 
capacity a queue can use.
 
maximum-capacity variable  behavior is different from max task limit variables, 
as maximum-capacity is a percentage and it grows and shrinks in absolute terms 
based on total cluster capacity.Also same maximum-capacity percentage is 
applied to both map and reduce.

  was:
Remove the existing 
"mapred.capacity-scheduler.queue.<queue-name>.max.map.slots" and 
"mapred.capacity-scheduler.queue.<queue-name>.max.reduce.slots" variables in 
trunk and yahoo distribution, these where used to throttle the queue, i.e, 
these were the hard limit and not allowing queue to grow further.

Backported maximum-capacity feature from 21 to yahoo distribution.
This introduces new parameter 
"mapred.capacity-scheduler.queue.<queue-name>.maximum-capacity" in yahoo 
distribution. maximum-capacity defines a limit beyond which a queue cannot use 
the capacity of the cluster. This provides a means to limit how much excess 
capacity a queue can use.
 
This is different from existing max task limit , as maximum-capacity is a 
percentage and it grows and shrinks in absolute terms based on total cluster 
capacity.

> Currently the CS caps a queue's capacity to it's actual capacity if a 
> hard-limit is specified to be greater than it's actual capacity. We should 
> allow the queue to go upto the hard-limit if specified.
> Also, I propose we change the hard-limit unit to be percentage rather than 
> #slots.
