Bikas Saha commented on YARN-1029: ---------------------------------- Yes. Thats correct. I am aware of the HDFS discussions. ZKFC is definitely going to be part of RM failover and supported. Given RM's lower memory consumption and sane values of ZK timeouts the GC problem may not be severe in the RM's case. On the other hand, with RM state being also stored in ZK, having an embedded FC may considerably simplify deployment and maintenance of RM failover. So its not a bad option to have. > Allow embedding leader election into the RM > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-1029 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1029 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Bikas Saha > Assignee: Karthik Kambatla > > It should be possible to embed common ActiveStandyElector into the RM such > that ZooKeeper based leader election and notification is in-built.
