Bikas Saha updated YARN-445: ---------------------------- Issue Type: Sub-task (was: New Feature) Parent: YARN-386 > Ability to signal containers > ---------------------------- > > Key: YARN-445 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-445 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: nodemanager > Affects Versions: 2.0.5-beta > Reporter: Jason Lowe > > It would be nice if an ApplicationMaster could send signals to contaniers > such as SIGQUIT, SIGUSR1, etc. > For example, in order to replicate the jstack-on-task-timeout feature > implemented by MAPREDUCE-1119 in Hadoop 0.21 the NodeManager needs an > interface for sending SIGQUIT to a container. For that specific feature we > could implement it as an additional field in the StopContainerRequest. > However that would not address other potential features like the ability for > an AM to trigger jstacks on arbitrary tasks *without* killing them. The > latter feature would be a very useful debugging tool for users who do not > have shell access to the nodes. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
