Sandy Ryza commented on MAPREDUCE-5311: --------------------------------------- As slots no longer exist in MR2, we cannot avoid breaking compatibility for some existing applications. Keeping SLOTS_MILLIS as it is will break compatibility for the majority of MR1 clusters. Defining SLOTS_MILLIS to be the same as CONTAINER_MILLIS will break compatibility for the minority of clusters that both used the mapred.cluster.map.memory.mb property in MR1 and chose to configure memory in MR2 in a way that exactly lines up with slots in MR1 (i.e. setting yarn.scheduler.minimum-allocation-mb to exactly the same as mapred.cluster.map.memory.mb, which is often not the right choice). > Replace SLOTS_MILLIS counters with MEM_MILLIS > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-5311 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5311 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: applicationmaster > Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha > Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur > Assignee: Sandy Ryza > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 2.1.0-beta > > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-5311-1.patch, MAPREDUCE-5311.patch, > MAPREDUCE-5311.patch > > > Per discussion in MAPREDUCE-5310 and comments in the code we should remove > all the related logic and just leave the counter constant for backwards > compatibility and deprecate the counter constants. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
