Sandy Ryza created YARN-657: ------------------------------- Summary: Fair scheduler can consider apps starved when they are alone on the cluster Key: YARN-657 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-657 Project: Hadoop YARN Issue Type: Bug Components: scheduler Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha Reporter: Sandy Ryza Assignee: Sandy Ryza
If a lone app on a cluster requests a lot of resources and it takes some time to allocate them, the fair scheduler may think the app is starved because it has not reached its minimum share. This can cause confusing log messages and I believe unnecessary preemptions in certain edge cases where another app is running on the cluster but not using all the resources. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
