>                 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

> 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.
