Robert Kanter commented on YARN-6050:
-------------------------------------
The API is already complicated enough. If we overload a {{ResourceRequest}} to
have this functionality when used by the client, I'm concerned that going to
make things even more confusing for clients. I believe Container Requests also
work this way, so it is also more consistent with how those work.

> Key: YARN-6050
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-6050
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.9.0, 3.0.0-alpha2
> Reporter: Robert Kanter
> Assignee: Robert Kanter
> Attachments: YARN-6050.001.patch
>
>
> Yarn itself supports rack/node aware scheduling for AMs; however, there
> currently are two problems:
> # To specify hard or soft rack/node requests, you have to specify more than
> one {{ResourceRequest}}. For example, if you want to schedule an AM only on
> "rackA", you have to create two {{ResourceRequest}}, like this:
> {code}
> ResourceRequest.newInstance(PRIORITY, ANY, CAPABILITY, NUM_CONTAINERS, false);
> ResourceRequest.newInstance(PRIORITY, "rackA", CAPABILITY, NUM_CONTAINERS,
> true);
> {code}
> The problem is that the Yarn API doesn't actually allow you to specify more
> than one {{ResourceRequest}} in the {{ApplicationSubmissionContext}}. The
> current behavior is to either build one from {{getResource}} or directly from
> {{getAMContainerResourceRequest}}, depending on if
> {{getAMContainerResourceRequest}} is null or not. We'll need to add a third
> method, say {{getAMContainerResourceRequests}}, which takes a list of
> {{ResourceRequest}} so that clients can specify the multiple resource
> requests.
> # There are some places where things are hardcoded to overwrite what the
> client specifies. These are pretty straightforward to fix.
