Arun Suresh commented on YARN-6808:
-----------------------------------

[~haibochen], the plan to use it to provide stricter capacity guarantees to 
queue, essentially push preemption to the NM. I guess YARN-1015 / YARN-1013 can 
be viewed as something complementary. My understanding is that in the later 
case, the scheduler would allocate OPP containers to a specific node based on 
unused allocated resources. While, with this patch, OPP containers will be 
allocated if an app requests resources beyond its available headroom.

> Allow Schedulers to return OPPORTUNISTIC containers when queues go over 
> configured capacity

> This is based on discussions with [~kasha] and [~kkaranasos].
> Currently, when a Queues goes over capacity, apps on starved queues must wait 
> either for containers to complete or for them to be pre-empted by the 
> scheduler to get resources.
> This JIRA proposes to allow Schedulers to:
> # Allocate all containers over the configured queue capacity/weight as 
> OPPORTUNISTIC.
> # Auto-promote running OPPORTUNISTIC containers of apps as and when their 
> GUARANTEED containers complete.
