Hitesh Shah commented on YARN-561: ---------------------------------- Take a look at ContainerLaunch#sanitizeEnv() and how it handles non-modifiable environment variables. The above mentioned env variables should also fall into the non-modifiable category. > Nodemanager should set some key information into the environment of every > container that it launches. > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-561 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-561 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Hitesh Shah > Assignee: Xuan Gong > Labels: usability > > Information such as containerId, nodemanager hostname, nodemanager port is > not set in the environment when any container is launched. > For an AM, the RM does all of this for it but for a container launched by an > application, all of the above need to be set by the ApplicationMaster. > At the minimum, container id would be a useful piece of information. If the > container wishes to talk to its local NM, the nodemanager related information > would also come in handy. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
