Adam B commented on MESOS-1807:
-------------------------------

I'm confused.. are Spark/Marathon/Chronos failing already due to executors with 
0 cpu AND 0 memory, and this ticket wants to also fail for 0 cpu OR 0 memory? 
Do we need to through an announcement/warning/deprecation cycle first?
Or is this issue to remove/relax the previous constraint so that frameworks 
will fail only with executors with 0 cpu XOR 0 memory?

> Disallow executors with cpu only or memory only resources

> Currently master allows executors to be launched with either only cpus or 
> only memory but we shouldn't allow that.
> This is because executor is an actual unix process that is launched by the 
> slave. If an executor doesn't specify cpus, what should do the cpu limits be 
> for that executor when there are no tasks running on it? If no cpu limits are 
> set then it might starve other executors/tasks on the slave violating 
> isolation guarantees. Same goes with memory. Moreover, the current 
> containerizer/isolator code will throw failures when using such an executor, 
> e.g., when the last task on the executor finishes and Containerizer::update() 
> is called with 0 cpus or 0 mem.
