--------------------------------------
Hi [~octo47],
We want to be able to support user queues for any rule(now and in the future)
without needing to add code
in that rule. I had a discussion with Sandy last week and we felt implementing
hierarchicalUserQueues using nested rules would make
it a) extensible and b) clean. For eg if we want user queues for Primary
group,all we have to do is :
<rule = hierarhicalUserQueue>
<rule=primaryGroup />
</rule>
The nested rule would be applied first and based on what it returns we can make
a decision at the HUQ level
whether to put it in a user queue underneath or skip to the next rule.
By this way we can also have 'create' flag at both hierarchicalUserQueue level
and the nest rule level which gives
the admin granularity of control over creating new queues.
If someone writes any other rule in future and want user queue support,they
just have to nest it with HUQ rule and things would just work.
No extra attributes in the xml is needed in the new rule.
As part of this patch, another thing I'm writing is to be able to mention
parent queues without leaf queues in the alloc xml,
which can then be used as user queues. I'm done with code,will write tests and
post a patch with all these features this week.
> Fair Scheduler Dynamic Hierarchical User Queues

> Key: YARN-1864
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1864

> In Fair Scheduler, we want to be able to create user queues under any parent
> queue in the hierarchy. For eg. Say user1 submits a job to a parent queue
> called root.allUserQueues, we want be able to create a new queue called
> root.allUserQueues.user1 and run user1's job in it.Any further jobs submitted
> by this user to root.allUserQueues will be run in this newly created
> root.allUserQueues.user1.
> This is very similar to the 'user-as-default' feature in Fair Scheduler which
> creates user queues under root queue. But we want the ability to create user
> queues under ANY parent queue.
> Why do we want this ?
> 1. Preemption : these dynamically created user queues can preempt each other
> if its fair share is not met. So there is fairness among users.
> User queues can also preempt other non-user leaf queue as well if below fair
> share.
> 2. Allocation to user queues : we want all the user queries(adhoc) to consume
> only a fraction of resources in the shared cluster. By creating this
> feature,we could do that by giving a fair share to the parent user queue
> which is then redistributed to all the dynamically created user queues.
