I'm not sure if this is something already supported by mesos, and if so it'd be great if someone could point me in the right direction.
Is there a way of asking a slave to garbage collect old executors manually? Maybe i'm misunderstanding things, but as each executor does (insert knowledge gap) mesos works out how long it is able to keep the sandbox for and schedules it for garbage collection appropriately, also taking into account the command line The disk on one of my slaves is getting quite full (98%) and i'm curious how mesos is going to behave in this situation. Should it start clearing things up, given a task could launch that needs to use an amount of disk space, but that disk is being eaten up by old executor sandboxes. It may be worth noting i'm not specifying --gc_delay on any slave right now, perhaps I should be? Any input would be much appreciated. Cheers, Tom.
