-----------------------------------

Hi Steve

Thanks for the comments. I correct the words. And regarding to 
{quote}
That way the AM can choose to wait 1 minute or more for an anti-affine 
placement before giving up and accepting a node already in use.

this is exactly the reason I proposed the PREFERRED rules,  you can set a max 
time await before compromising the rule. For example, you use ANTI_AFFINITY 
rule and set 1 minute to the max wait time, then RM will wait for at least 1 
minute before assigning a container to a node which already has a container 
running on it. Or ... forget about REQUIRED or PREFERRED, we can directly 
define these preference in ContainerAllocateRule class, with an attribute like 
*maxTimeAwaitBeforeCompromise*, default it is 0, which means never compromise 
the rule (REQUIRED).

> container requests to the AM should be able to request anti-affinity to 
> ensure that things like Region Servers don't come up on the same failure 
> zones. 
> Similarly, you may be able to want to specify affinity to same host or rack 
> without specifying which specific host/rack. Example: bringing up a small 
> giraph cluster in a large YARN cluster would benefit from having the 
> processes in the same rack purely for bandwidth reasons.
