-----------------------------

bq. Handle container requests that request more resources than available in the 
cluster

Won't this be better as a summary if it read "Handle container requests that 
request more resources than _presently_ available in the cluster"? Since 
there's another case where requests > maximum allowed requests itself needs to 
be first capped, so that scheduling may occur.

> In heterogenous clusters, a simple check at the scheduler to check if the 
> allocation request is within the max allocatable range is not enough. 
> If there are large nodes in the cluster which are not available, there may be 
> situations where some allocation requests will never be fulfilled. Need an 
> approach to decide when to invalidate such requests. For application 
> submissions, there will need to be a feedback loop for applications that 
> could not be launched. For running AMs, AllocationResponse may need to 
> augmented with information for invalidated/cancelled container requests.
