Robert Kanter commented on YARN-6050:
-------------------------------------

[~leftnoteasy], you're right.  I should have changed that when I made the 
protobuf changes.  I'll upload a new patch soon.

Though I think we should still throw and exception if there's no ANY request 
because otherwise, the client will be expecting a specific rack or node, and it 
won't be doing that, and they'll be left wondering why.  An exception with a 
clear error message makes it more obvious what's happening.

> AMs can't be scheduled on racks or nodes

> 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.
