To configure queue sorting policy, please refer to doc: [app sorting policies](user_guide/sorting_policies.md#Application_sorting). + +:::info Why FIFO based sorting policy? +When Gang Scheduling is enabled, the scheduler proactively reserves resources +for each application. If the queue sorting policy is not FIFO based (StateAware is FIFO based sorting policy), +the scheduler might reserve partial resources for each app and causing resource segmentation issues. +::: + +### App Configuration + +On Kubernetes, YuniKorn discovers apps by loading metadata from individual pod, the first pod of the app +is required to enclosed with a full copy of app metadata. If the app doesn’t have any notion about the first or second pod, +then all pods are required to carry the same taskGroups info. Gang scheduling requires taskGroups definition, +which can be specified via pod annotations. The required fields are: + +| Annotation | Value | +|----------------------------------------------- |--------------------- | +| yunikorn.apache.org/task-group-name | Task group name, it must be unique within the application | +| yunikorn.apache.org/task-groups | A list of task groups, each item contains all the info defined for the certain task group | +| yunikorn.apache.org/schedulingPolicyParameters | Optional. A arbitrary key value pairs to define scheduling policy parameters. Currently only *placeholderTimeoutInSeconds* is supported. It defines the reservation timeout for how long the scheduler should wait until giving up allocating all the placeholders. | Review comment: I think here we need to add some clarification related the timeout. It will not define the reservation timeout, since the timer is not started when the app enters the reserving state, but when we have the first placeholder allocation. Also we should mention it's default value. ########## File path: docs/user_guide/trouble_shooting.md ########## @@ -144,6 +144,43 @@ kubectl scale deployment yunikorn-scheduler -n yunikorn --replicas=0 kubectl scale deployment yunikorn-scheduler -n yunikorn --replicas=1 ``` +## Gang Scheduling + +### 1.
