Chad Heuschober commented on MESOS-3372: ---------------------------------------- Right. This particular issue isn't about scheduling, through -- the offer of the attributes doesn't necessarily help inject them into the environment of a running tasks unless the framework is built to do that. Perhaps a better way to ask the question is: _If I created a task with 4 instances, run on 4 different slaves that, when executed, would echo each unique slave's attributes, what would be the best way to achieve that?_ Considering that each of my slaves may have a different value set for their attributes, this is not something that can be statically set in a single task definition. The injection of the slave attributes has to happen after the initial request by the framework and after the offer has been accepted but before it has been executed. This could either be code that has to be written into the framework that would modify TaskInfo to inject those attributes or code written into the executor that would modify TaskInfo to inject the attributes. Both are acceptable places to template in these parameters but the value of having this data in the executor is that it's a feature that can be used across multiple frameworks and doesn't have to be written into each one. > Allow mesos agent attributes to be tokenized in taskInfo > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MESOS-3372 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3372 > Project: Mesos > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Chad Heuschober > > Some applications workloads would benefit from having access to the > statically defined slave attributes.
