Thomas Graves commented on MAPREDUCE-3897:
------------------------------------------
+1 for the formula change to fix the current issue described here. I haven't
had a chance to review the code in detail. I think there is still a bug in the
computation in that it uses the user minimum limit % in the calculation of
maxActiveApplicationPerUser, when really that need to factor in the number
active users. so similar to computeUserLimit function where it takes the max of
userlimit*capacity or capacity/activeusers.
Perhaps Arun can comment.
> capacity scheduler - maxActiveApplicationsPerUser calculation can be wrong

> The capacity scheduler calculates the maxActiveApplications and the
> maxActiveApplicationsPerUser based on the config
> yarn.scheduler.capacity.maximum-applications or default 10000.
> MaxActiveApplications = max ( ceil ( clusterMemory/minAllocation *
> maxAMResource% * absoluteMaxCapacity), 1)
> MaxActiveAppsPerUser = max( ceil (maxActiveApplicationsComputedAbove *
> (userLimit%/100) * userLimitFactor), 1)
> maxActiveApplications is already multiplied by the queue absolute MAXIMUM
> capacity, so if max capacity > capacity and if you have user limit factor 1
> (which is the default) and only 1 user is running, that user will not be
> allowed to use over the queue capacity, so having it relative to MAX capacity
> doesn't make sense. That user could easily end up in a deadlock and all its
> space used by application masters.
