Raymond Liu commented on YARN-4125:
-----------------------------------

[~ka...@cloudera.com] regarding provide the information about largest container 
allocatable.  how would you decide the value? 
say if the <memory, cpu> capability is:
<4096, 0>
<3172, 1>
<2048, 2>
<1024, 3>
<0, 4>
which one will be the largest container allocatable?

> In addition to aggregate availability for an app, headroom should provide 
> information on largest container that can be allcoated

> Today, headroom is an indicator to an application on the resources available 
> to it. It is an aggregate across all nodes. If all the nodes have either only 
> memory or only cpu available, no container can be allocated. The headroom 
> should hint at this too, so apps can make decisions sooner. MAPREDUCE-6470 is 
> a case of this, and has an example for the curious. 
> May be, we should add an API that returns both aggregate headroom and large 
> container allocatable.
