             Summary: Race condition in Fair Scheduler
                 Key: YARN-164
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-164
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: scheduler
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2-alpha
            Reporter: Devaraj K
            Assignee: Devaraj K
            Priority: Critical


{code:xml}
      Thread updateThread = new Thread(new UpdateThread());
      updateThread.start();

      initialized = true;
{code}

In the above code, making the initialized as true after starting the 
UpdateThread.



{code:xml}
  private class UpdateThread implements Runnable {
    public void run() {
      while (initialized) {
        try {
          Thread.sleep(UPDATE_INTERVAL);
          update();
          preemptTasksIfNecessary();
        } catch (Exception e) {
          LOG.error("Exception in fair scheduler UpdateThread", e);
        }
      }
    }
  }
 {code}

 In this run method of UpdateThread, it is checking for the initialized and 
exiting if it is not true. Here most of the times initialized is getting true 
after exiting the UpdateThread and the thread functionality is missing, due to 
that all the submitted applications are hanging without making any progress.
