Imran Rashid commented on SPARK-16630: -------------------------------------- I'd also take {{spark.yarn.max.executor.failures}} into account for figuring out a default. In particular we'd want the default to be below that, so one bad node wouldn't kill the app. Does it makes sense for this to be tied into the generic BlacklistTracker? I guess all the interesting logic will be cluster specific so maybe not. {quote} We also want to take into account small clusters and perhaps stop blacklisting if a certain percent of the cluster is already blacklisted. {quote} I don't think that is possible -- is the size of the cluster exposed at all? you raise a good point though, we'd need to have some way to detect this, to avoid the app just sitting idle indefinitely. > Blacklist a node if executors won't launch on it. > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-16630 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-16630 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: YARN > Affects Versions: 1.6.2 > Reporter: Thomas Graves > Priority: Major > > On YARN, its possible that a node is messed or misconfigured such that a > container won't launch on it.
