Wangda Tan commented on YARN-1964:
----------------------------------

[~ashahab], Thanks for you patch! As you said, 
bq.  However, I would like to move it down to the job configuration so that ...
I hope you could share more ideas job configuration you mentioned, is it a YARN 
application specific configuration or it will be a part of NM's configuration? 
I asked this because currently, we don't have such ability (Please correct me 
if I was wrong) to specify application-specific config when running a YARN 
application. We should leave an option to user specify their own configuration 
to RM or NM, which can help them creating runtime-selectable modules (like 
select CE at runtime).

> Docker (https://www.docker.io/) is, increasingly, a very popular container 
> technology.
> In context of YARN, the support for Docker will provide a very elegant 
> solution to allow applications to *package* their software into a Docker 
> container (entire Linux file system incl. custom versions of perl, python 
> etc.) and use it as a blueprint to launch all their YARN containers with 
> requisite software environment. This provides both consistency (all YARN 
> containers will have the same software environment) and isolation (no 
> interference with whatever is installed on the physical machine).
