Good, I was hoping that would be the case. But what are the mechanics of it?
Do I just add another entry? And what exactly is "madreduce.shuffle"? A
scoped class name? Or a key string into some map elsewhere?
e.g. like:
<property>
<name>yarn.nodemanager.aux-services</name>
<value>mapreduce.shuffle</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>yarn.nodemanager.aux-services</name>
<value>myauxserviceclassname</value>
</property>
Concerning auxiliary services -- do they communicate with NodeManager via RPC?
Is there an interface to implement? How are they opened and closed with
NodeManager?
Thanks
John

Yes, thats what this is for. You can implement, pass in and use your own
AuxService. It needs to be on the NodeManager CLASSPATH to run (and NM has to
be restarted to apply).
