Steve Loughran commented on YARN-896: ------------------------------------- Chris -I use the bar today as measure of expected nodes vs actual; i.e. what percentage of the goal of work has been met -which is free to vary up and down w/node failures -the percent bar is free to go in both directions YARN-1039 already says "add a flag to say long-lived", so that future versions of YARN can behave differently. This could do more than GUI -in particular YARN-3 cgroup limits would be something you may want to turn on for services, to exactly limit their RAM & CPU to what they asked for. If a long-lived service underestimates its requirements the impact on the node is worse than if a short-lived container does it -for that you may want to be more forgiving. > Roll up for long lived YARN > --------------------------- > > Key: YARN-896 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-896 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans > > YARN is intended to be general purpose, but it is missing some features to be > able to truly support long lived applications and long lived containers. > This ticket is intended to > # discuss what is needed to support long lived processes > # track the resulting JIRA. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
