Robert Joseph Evans commented on YARN-624:
------------------------------------------
[~curino] Sorry about the late reply. I have not really tested this much with
storm on YARN. Most of our experiments it is negligible the amount of time it
takes to get nodes. But we have not really done anything serious with it, and
adding new nodes right now is a manual operation.
> Support gang scheduling in the AM RM protocol
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: YARN-624
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-624
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: api, scheduler
> Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha
> Reporter: Sandy Ryza
> Assignee: Sandy Ryza
>
> Per discussion on YARN-392 and elsewhere, gang scheduling, in which a
> scheduler runs a set of tasks when they can all be run at the same time,
> would be a useful feature for YARN schedulers to support.
> Currently, AMs can approximate this by holding on to containers until they
> get all the ones they need. However, this lends itself to deadlocks when
> different AMs are waiting on the same containers.
