-----------------------------------------
[~hitesh] no it is in fact possible... but in some no usual way.
> Resource Localization using Groups as a new Localization Type

> Key: YARN-1020
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1020
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Omkar Vinit Joshi
>
> The scenario is as follows..
> * We definitely will have multiple applications running on top of yarn. These
> applications whenever run by users will need resources to be localized. Now
> the options what application-users will have for localizing resources are:-
> ** APPLICATION ... these files will be available for only that instance of
> the application and only for that single user. If we talk in terms of MR then
> for single job.
> ** PRIVATE ... available only for that user only for multiple runs of that
> application. Other users clearly will not be able to take advantage of that.
> So ideally will be wasting space (local resource cache) by replicating the
> same file again and again.
> ** PUBLIC... there will be only one copy of individual files of the
> application say APP_1..GOOD ..in the sense it will be accessible to all the
> users...But for secured clusters; users of different application (say APP_2)
> containers can then gain easy access to this applications (APP_1) private
> files and potentially may modify it.
> So clearly we don't have any solution today to solve the above problem with
> existing RESOURCE_LOCALIZATION_TYPES without effectively using space.
> Therefore we need something like GROUP to address this scenario.
> Thoughts??
