Allen Wittenauer commented on YARN-2495:
----------------------------------------
bq. This can already be accomplished using the admin cli from a script or
calling a web service from the node
Think about the secure cluster case. A whole new level of complexity is
required to get this functionality using your proposed method vs. having the NM
just run the script itself.
bq. Is this all just to support putting labels into the node-managers
configuration file and introducing them that way? Do we have a solid need for
that?
No, this is so we *don't* have to have hard-coded labels in a file. If we are
doing an external software change, we need to be able to reflect that change up
the chain. Think rolling upgrade. Think multiple service owners.
FWIW, yes, we do have a solid need for this feature. Almost every ops person I
talked to has said they'd likely make use it for the exact use cases I've
highlighted above. Being able to roll out new versions of Java and make
scheduling decisions on its installation is *extremely* powerful and useful.

> Target of this JIRA is to allow admin specify labels in each NM, this covers
> - User can set labels in each NM (by setting yarn-site.xml (YARN-2923) or
> using script suggested by [~aw] (YARN-2729) )
> - NM will send labels to RM via ResourceTracker API
> - RM will set labels in NodeLabelManager when NM register/update labels
