The RM can give it allocated > containers in the list order n5, n2, n1. The way AM map->container assignment > happens, the AM will try to assign node local maps to n5, failing which it > will assign rack local maps to n5. These rack local maps could be node local > on n2 and n1 and would have been assigned to containers on n1 and n2 if the > AM had not made an early rack local match for them on n5. This can lead to > poor locality. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
