Summary: Add an application timeout service in RM to kill jobs which are not getting resources Key: MAPREDUCE-5964 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5964 Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce Issue Type: Improvement Components: resourcemanager Reporter: Ashutosh Jindal Currently , If an application is submitted to RM, the app keeps waiting until the resources are allocated for AM. Such an application may be stuck till a resource is allocated for AM, and this may be due to over utilization of Queue or User limits etc. In a production cluster, some periodic running applications may have lesser cluster share. So after waiting for some time, if resources are not available, such applications can be made as failed. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
