------------------------------------

             Summary: ExternalShuffleBlockResolver should not block shuffle 
managers by name.
                 Key: SPARK-26380
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-26380
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Shuffle
    Affects Versions: 2.3.2
            Reporter: Peiyu Zhuang


We configure a shuffle manager that is compatible with the original Spark 
shuffle manager (but with other network/storage implementation) in our 
environment.  It doesn't require any modification to Spark source code and It 
works fine until we enable dynamic allocation.  The problem is that in 
{{ExternalShuffleBlockResolver}} class it checks the name of the shuffle 
manager class and raise an {{UnsupportedOperationException}} if shuffle manager 
is not {{SortShuffleManager}} or {{UnsafeShuffleManager}}.
Since shuffle manager is totally configurable, I think user should be able to 
decide which shuffle manager to use when dynamic allocation is enabled.
Maybe we could change {{UnsupportedOperationException}} to a warning log 
telling user that the shuffle manager they are using may not be compatible with 
dynamic allocation and gives them detail reasons why.  On the other hand, user 
may still choose to use their own shuffle manager while knowing the risk behind 
it.
