Larry McCay commented on YARN-5280:
-----------------------------------
>From my java platform perspective, I'm happy to see this thinking. From a
>Hadoop ops perspective, it sounds like a nightmare.
It is possible that containers may make the headaches of security manager
easier to deal with but there are generally many.
I would suggest treading lightly at first and test access to files, sockets,
etc and see where the pain rises. :)
> Allow YARN containers to run with Java Security Manager

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-5280
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: nodemanager, yarn
> Affects Versions: 2.6.4
> Reporter: Greg Phillips

>
> YARN applications have the ability to perform privileged actions which have
> the potential to add instability into the cluster. The Java Security Manager
> can be used to prevent users from running privileged actions while still
> allowing their core data processing use cases.
> Introduce a YARN flag which will allow a Hadoop administrator to enable the
> Java Security Manager for user code, while still providing complete
> permissions to core Hadoop libraries.
