Alejandro Abdelnur commented on YARN-45:
----------------------------------------
I'm just trying to see if we can have (at least for now) a single message type
instead of two that satisfies the usecases. Regarding keeping the tighter
semantics, if not difficult/complex, I'm OK with it. Thanks.

>
> The ResourceManager strikes a balance between cluster utilization and strict
> enforcement of resource invariants in the cluster. Individual allocations of
> containers must be reclaimed- or reserved- to restore the global invariants
> when cluster load shifts. In some cases, the ApplicationMaster can respond to
> fluctuations in resource availability without losing the work already
> completed by that task (MAPREDUCE-4584). Supplying it with this information
> would be helpful for overall cluster utilization [1]. To this end, we want to
> establish a protocol for the RM to ask the AM to release containers.
