Nathan Roberts commented on YARN-4963: -------------------------------------- Sorry it took so long to get back to this. I filed YARN-5013 to handle #2. We can continue that discussion over there. > capacity scheduler: Make number of OFF_SWITCH assignments per heartbeat > configurable > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: YARN-4963 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-4963 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: capacityscheduler > Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.7.2 > Reporter: Nathan Roberts > Assignee: Nathan Roberts > Attachments: YARN-4963.001.patch > > > Currently the capacity scheduler will allow exactly 1 OFF_SWITCH assignment > per heartbeat. With more and more non MapReduce workloads coming along, the > degree of locality is declining, causing scheduling to be significantly > slower. It's still important to limit the number of OFF_SWITCH assignments to > avoid densely packing OFF_SWITCH containers onto nodes. > Proposal is to add a simple config that makes the number of OFF_SWITCH > assignments configurable. > Will upload candidate patch shortly. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
