No, the name is origin from the standard standalone mode and add a yarn prefix to distinguish it I think. But it do run on yarn cluster.
About the way they run and difference of yarn-standalone mode and yarn-client mode, the doc also have the details, in short, yarn-standalone have spark-context(thus Driver) run together with AM on yarn, yarn-client have spark-context run on local machine where you launch the cmd. For both mode, the executor all run on yarn cluster.

As for yarn-standalone and yarn-client, I have some confusion: If I am use yarn-standalone, does that mean, It's not run on yarn cluster, only pseudo-<http://dict.cn/pseudo->distributed?

I think in the run-on-yarn doc, the example for yarn standalone mode mentioned that you also need to pass in -args=yarn-standalone for Client etc. And if using yarn-client mode, you don't need to invoke Client by yourself, instead use something like: SPARK_JAR=xxx SPARK_YARN_APP_JAR=xxx ./run-example org.apache.spark.examples.SparkPi yarn-client Best Regards, Raymond Liu From: Azuryy Yu [mailto:azury...@gmail.com<mailto:azury...@gmail.com>] Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2013 12:43 PM To: user@spark.incubator.apache.org<mailto:user@spark.incubator.apache.org> Subject: Re: About spark.driver.host Raymond: Add addtional: Yes, I build Spark-0.8.1 with -Pnew-yarn, and I followed run-on-yarn.cmd strictly.

For yarn-standalone mode, it will be the host of where spark AM runs, while for yarn-client mode, it will be the local host you run the cmd. And what's cmd you run SparkPi ? I think you actually don't need to set sprak.driver.host manually for Yarn mode , SparkContext will handle it for you in Automatically and pass it to AM and Executor to use to connect to Driver. Did you follow the guide in docs/running-on-yarn.md<http://running-on-yarn.md> ?
