Jason Lowe commented on YARN-2604:
----------------------------------
How is this different from YARN-56? Also wondering about the case of a
heterogeneous cluster where only a few nodes are big enough to satisfy the
request and they are temporarily unavailable. Do we outright fail the request
or hang around a bit to see if they return before failing? The discussion in
YARN-56 covers some of this.
> Scheduler should consider max-allocation-* in conjunction with the largest
> node

> Key: YARN-2604
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2604
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: scheduler
> Affects Versions: 2.5.1
> Reporter: Karthik Kambatla
> Assignee: Karthik Kambatla
>
> If the scheduler max-allocation-* values are larger than the resources
> available on the largest node in the cluster, an application requesting
> resources between the two values will be accepted by the scheduler but the
> requests will never be satisfied. The app essentially hangs forever.
