Hello Ray,

I'm referring to the nodes of the cluster page, which shows the individual
nodes and the total memory available in each node and the memory used in
each node.

This 'memory used' would be the memory used by all containers running on
that node; however, if I check free command in the node, there is
significant difference. I'm unable to understand this...

Appreciate any light into this. I agree the main RM page shows the total
containers memory utilization across nodes., which is matching the sum of
memory used in each nodes as displayed in the 'nodes of the cluster' page...

Thank you
Suresh.
