Greg Phillips commented on YARN-5280:
-------------------------------------
There are a few production environments which wish to provide Hadoop processing
as a service. There have been instances where this model has lead to cluster
instability, especially when the user base is very large. This optional
feature is meant to provide controls to YARN to complement and harden the
limitations imposed on containers.
> Allow YARN containers to run with Java Security Manager

> Key: YARN-5280
> 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
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: YARN-5280.patch, YARNContainerSandbox.pdf

>
> 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.
