Ajith S commented on HADOOP-9640:
---------------------------------

I missed checking the sub-tasks. Will like to update documentation for 
FairCallQueue as it has lot of configuration introduced. It will be better if 
we can explain it briefly similar to 
http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/FairScheduler.html.
 Added a sub-task for it.

> Several production Hadoop cluster incidents occurred where the Namenode was 
> overloaded and failed to respond. 
> We can improve quality of service for users during namenode peak loads by 
> replacing the FIFO call queue with a [Fair Call 
> Queue|https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12616864/NN-denial-of-service-updated-plan.pdf].
>  (this plan supersedes rpc-congestion-control-draft-plan).
> Excerpted from the communication of one incident, “The map task of a user was 
> creating huge number of small files in the user directory. Due to the heavy 
> load on NN, the JT also was unable to communicate with NN...The cluster 
> became responsive only once the job was killed.”
> Excerpted from the communication of another incident, “Namenode was 
> overloaded by GetBlockLocation requests (Correction: should be getFileInfo 
> requests. the job had a bug that called getFileInfo for a nonexistent file in 
> an endless loop). All other requests to namenode were also affected by this 
> and hence all jobs slowed down. Cluster almost came to a grinding 
> halt…Eventually killed jobtracker to kill all jobs that are running.”
> Excerpted from HDFS-945, “We've seen defective applications cause havoc on 
> the NameNode, for e.g. by doing 100k+ 'listStatus' on very large directories 
> (60k files) etc.”
