Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on YARN-2175:
-----------------------------------------------
bq. there is no way to kill an task if its stuck in these states.
YARN-1619/YARN-445 should let you do this manually if not automatically.
> Container localization has no timeouts and tasks can be stuck there for a
> long time

> Key: YARN-2175
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2175
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: nodemanager
> Affects Versions: 2.4.0
> Reporter: Anubhav Dhoot
> Assignee: Anubhav Dhoot
>
> There are no timeouts that can be used to limit the time taken by various
> container startup operations. Localization for example could take a long time
> and there is no way to kill an task if its stuck in these states. These may
> have nothing to do with the task itself and could be an issue within the
> platform.
> Ideally there should be configurable limits for various states within the
> NodeManager to limit various states. The RM does not care about most of these
> and its only between AM and the NM. We can start by making these global
> configurable defaults and in future we can make it fancier by letting AM
> override them in the start container request.
> This jira will be used to limit localization time and we open others if we
> feel we need to limit other operations.
