Sandy Ryza commented on YARN-392: --------------------------------- We are implementing the approach outlined by Arun in his first comment on YARN-398. Although it is not the primary goal, the approach does allow for node/rack blacklisting, and loses nothing by doing so. Even if we were to say that you can't set the disable-allocation flag on node-level requests, it would still be possible to blacklist racks by setting the disable flag on a rack and submitting node requests for nodes under it. It would also still be possible to blacklist nodes by whitelisting every other node on its rack. Allowing the disable-allocation flag on node-level requests just makes the semantics more consistent. I'll update the title of the JIRA to better reflect this. > Make it possible to schedule to specific nodes without dropping locality > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: YARN-392 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-392 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Bikas Saha > Assignee: Sandy Ryza > Attachments: YARN-392-1.patch, YARN-392-2.patch, YARN-392-2.patch, > YARN-392-2.patch, YARN-392-3.patch, YARN-392-4.patch, YARN-392.patch > > > Currently its not possible to specify scheduling requests for specific nodes > and nowhere else.
