Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on YARN-160:
----------------------------------------------

bq. Junping felt we should add it to cover upgrade scenarios. What do you think?
Okay, not sure of the upgrade issue, but I think it makes sense to have an 
explicit flag.

bq. I think resource.percentage-pmem-limit should be analogous to 
resource.percentage-physical-cpu-limit in that it sets the limit as a 
percentage of total memory. What about something like 
"yarn.nodemanager.default-percentage-pmem-limit"?
Don't quite understand your comment. We can have a 
resource.percentage-pmem-limit and say that this only works when 
hardware-detection is enabled?

> nodemanagers should obtain cpu/memory values from underlying OS

> As mentioned in YARN-2
> *NM memory and CPU configs*
> Currently these values are coming from the config of the NM, we should be 
> able to obtain those values from the OS (ie, in the case of Linux from 
> /proc/meminfo & /proc/cpuinfo). As this is highly OS dependent we should have 
> an interface that obtains this information. In addition implementations of 
> this interface should be able to specify a mem/cpu offset (amount of mem/cpu 
> not to be avail as YARN resource), this would allow to reserve mem/cpu for 
> the OS and other services outside of YARN containers.
