Ack request which means the taskExecutor gives the slot to the specified > jobMaster as expected. > 2. Decline request if the slot is already occupied by other AllocationID. > 3. Timeout which could caused by lost of request message or response message > or slow network transfer. > On the first occasion, ResourceManager need to do nothing. However, under the > second and third occasion, ResourceManager need to notify slotManager, > slotManager will verify and clear all the previous allocate information for > this slot request firstly, then try to find a proper slot for the slot > request again. This may cause some duplicate allocation, e.g. the slot > request to TaskManager is successful but the response is lost somehow, so we > may request a slot in another TaskManager, this causes two slots assigned to > one request, but it can be taken care of by rejecting registration at > JobMaster. > There are still some question need to discuss in a step further. > 1. Who send slotRequest to taskExecutor, SlotManager or ResourceManager? I > think it's better that SlotManager delegates the rpc call to ResourceManager > when SlotManager need to communicate with outside world. ResourceManager > know which taskExecutor to send the request based on ResourceID. Besides this > RPC call which used to request slot to taskExecutor should not be a > RpcMethod, because we hope only SlotManager has permission to call the > method, but the other component, for example JobMaster and TaskExecutor, > cannot call this method directly. > 2. If JobMaster reject the slot offer from a TaskExecutor, the TaskExecutor > should notify the free slot to ResourceManager immediately, or wait for next > heartbeat sync. The advantage of first way is the resourceManager’s view > could be updated faster. The advantage of second way is save a RPC method in > ResourceManager. > 3. There are two communication type. First, the slot request could be sent as > an ask operation where the response is returned as a future. Second, > resourceManager send the slot request in fire and forget way, the response > could be returned by an RPC call. I prefer the first one because it is more > simple and could save a RPC method in ResourceManager (for callback in the > second way). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
