> Policies for choosing which opportunistic containers to kill
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: YARN-5887
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-5887
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Reporter: Konstantinos Karanasos
> Assignee: Abhishek Modi
> Priority: Major
>
> When a guaranteed container arrives at an NM but there are no resources to
> start its execution, opportunistic containers will be killed to make space
> for the guaranteed container.
> At the moment, we kill opportunistic containers in reverse order of arrival
> (first the most recently started ones). This is not always the right
> decision.
> For example, we might want to minimize the number of containers killed: to
> start a 6GB container, we could kill one 6GB opportunistic or three 2GB ones.
> Another example would be to refrain from killing containers of jobs that are
> very close to completion (we have to pass job completion information to the
> NM in that case).
