Shannon Carey created FLINK-5542: ------------------------------------ Summary: YARN client incorrectly uses local YARN config to check vcore capacity Key: FLINK-5542 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5542 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Components: YARN Affects Versions: 1.1.4 Reporter: Shannon Carey
See http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/1-1-4-on-YARN-vcores-change-td11016.html When using bin/yarn-session.sh, AbstractYarnClusterDescriptor line 271 in 1.1.4 is comparing the user's selected number of vcores to the vcores configured in the local node's YARN config (from YarnConfiguration eg. yarn-site.xml and yarn-default.xml). It incorrectly prevents Flink from launching even if there is sufficient vcore capacity on the cluster. That is not correct, because the application will not necessarily run on the local node. For example, if running the yarn-session.sh client from the AWS EMR master node, the vcore count there may be different from the vcore count on the core nodes where Flink will actually run. A reasonable way to fix this would probably be to reuse the logic from "yarn-session.sh -q" (FlinkYarnSessionCli line 550) which knows how to get vcore information from the real worker nodes. Alternatively, perhaps we could remove the check entirely and rely on YARN's Scheduler to determine whether sufficient resources exist. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
