Steve Loughran commented on YARN-914:
-------------------------------------
YARN-1394 adds the need for AMs to be told of NM failure/decommission as causes
for container completion
> Support graceful decommission of nodemanager
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: YARN-914
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-914
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha
> Reporter: Luke Lu
> Assignee: Junping Du
>
> When NMs are decommissioned for non-fault reasons (capacity change etc.),
> it's desirable to minimize the impact to running applications.
> Currently if a NM is decommissioned, all running containers on the NM need to
> be rescheduled on other NMs. Further more, for finished map tasks, if their
> map output are not fetched by the reducers of the job, these map tasks will
> need to be rerun as well.
> We propose to introduce a mechanism to optionally gracefully decommission a
> node manager.
