             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.
