David Ciemiewicz commented on MAPREDUCE-1485: --------------------------------------------- I would also be good if any single user was limited to as to the total number of tasks. This way it doesn't matter if a user has a single job with 20,000 tasks or many 20 jobs with 1,000 tasks. > CapacityScheduler should have prevent a single job taking over large parts of > a cluster > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1485 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1485 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: contrib/capacity-sched > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Arun C Murthy > Fix For: 0.22.0 > > > The proposal is to have a per-queue limit on the number of concurrent tasks a > job can run on a cluster. > We've seen cases where a single, large, job took over a majority of the > cluster - worse, it meant that any bug in it caused issues for both the > NameNode _and_ the JobTracker. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
