Eric Payne commented on YARN-4606:
----------------------------------

bq. resources are not assigned to the second app when they should be
I'm unsure about the appropriate way to fix this. My original thinking was that 
we could do something similar to the following:
{code:title=AppSchedulingInfo#updatePendingResources}
        if( Not Waiting For AM Container
            || (Queue Used AM Resources < Queue Max AM Resources) {
          abstractUsersManager.activateApplication(user, applicationId);
        }
{code}

However, I'm not sure  of the best way to get the values for a queue's {{Used 
AM Resources}} and {{Max AM Resources}} from this context. Those may be 
capacity scheduler-specific values.

> Currently, if all applications belong to same user in LeafQueue are pending 
> (caused by max-am-percent, etc.), ActiveUsersManager still considers the user 
> is an active user. This could lead to starvation of active applications, for 
> example:
> - App1(belongs to user1)/app2(belongs to user2) are active, app3(belongs to 
> user3)/app4(belongs to user4) are pending
> - ActiveUsersManager returns #active-users=4
> - However, there're only two users (user1/user2) are able to allocate new 
> resources. So computed user-limit-resource could be lower than expected.
