Markus Weimer commented on YARN-3337:
-------------------------------------
Excellent idea! We do this over in REEF within the AM as well as the containers
(via reef-poison), but that doesn't allow us to create failures at a low enough
level. Having the RM kill our containers would be awesome for tests.

> Key: YARN-3337
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3337
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: test
> Affects Versions: 2.7.0
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
>
> To test failure resilience today you either need custom scripts or implement
> Chaos Monkey-like logic in your application (SLIDER-202).
> Killing AMs and containers on a schedule & probability is the core activity
> here, one that could be handled by a CLI App/client lib that does this.
> # entry point to have a startup delay before acting
> # frequency of chaos wakeup/polling
> # probability to AM failure generation (0-100)
> # probability of non-AM container kill
> # future: other operations
