MENG DING commented on YARN-1197:
---------------------------------
Just wanted to add that if dominant resource calculator is being used, it may
compare different dimensions between target and current resource, but since we
have the restriction that all dimensions must be >= or <= for increase/decrease
actions, there should be no conflicting results.
> Support changing resources of an allocated container

> Key: YARN-1197
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1197
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: api, nodemanager, resourcemanager
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0-beta
> Reporter: Wangda Tan
> Attachments: YARN-1197 old-design-docs-patches-for-reference.zip,

>
> The current YARN resource management logic assumes resource allocated to a
> container is fixed during the lifetime of it. When users want to change a
> resource
> of an allocated container the only way is releasing it and allocating a new
> container with expected size.
> Allowing run-time changing resources of an allocated container will give us
> better control of resource usage in application side
