Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on YARN-2986: ----------------------------------------------- Tx for the comments. What is the difference between scheduler-custom-configuration and global-options? I was trying to put a structure around the global options for less confusion, but I am not too opinionated either ways. bq. I think we shouldn't mix element/attribute in config file Yes, I was trying to use elements everywhere, except for custom scheduler options. We can change that though. bq. Beyond above comments, what's the plan to support the two different configurations? We should support the old one also. At any point of time, we can chose to support (a) both old and new configuration with old configurations taking precedence or (b) only support new configuration style if configured, and use the old configurations otherwise. I think (b) is enough for us. > Support hierarchical and unified scheduler configuration > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-2986 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2986 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli > Assignee: Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli > > Today's scheduler configuration is fragmented and non-intuitive, and needs to > be improved.
