Sangjin Lee commented on YARN-5105:
-----------------------------------

Thanks for the update Varun!

I am going over the patch, and am realizing something we need to discuss more. 
It seems to me that the switch between METRICS and METRICS_TIME_SERIES is 
somewhat awkward. If I'm reading this correctly, ALL means everything 
(including metrics), but metrics will be returned only as single-value metrics. 
On the other hand, if you want to return everything and metrics as time series, 
you need to do ALL + METRICS_TIME_SERIES.

I think the awkwardness comes from the fact that whether metrics should be 
returned as single-value or time series is (and probably should be) somewhat 
*orthogonal* to whether metrics (in either form) should be included in the 
response.

Would it be feasible to indicate that the time series should be returned for 
metrics as a separate query param from the fields? I think that would result in 
a more straightforward syntax. What do you think?

> entire time series is returned for YARN container system metrics (CPU and 
> memory)
