Varun Vasudev commented on YARN-1593: ------------------------------------- [~haibochen] - my apologies - I was out for a few days. I'll have a document ready soon. > support out-of-proc AuxiliaryServices > ------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-1593 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1593 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: nodemanager, rolling upgrade > Reporter: Ming Ma > Assignee: Junping Du > > AuxiliaryServices such as ShuffleHandler currently run in the same process as > NM. There are some benefits to host them in dedicated processes. > 1. NM rolling restart. If we want to upgrade YARN , NM restart will force the > ShuffleHandler restart. If ShuffleHandler runs as a separate process, > ShuffleHandler can continue to run during NM restart. NM can reconnect the > the running ShuffleHandler after restart. > 2. Resource management. It is possible another type of AuxiliaryServices will > be implemented. AuxiliaryServices are considered YARN application specific > and could consume lots of resources. Running AuxiliaryServices in separate > processes allow easier resource management. NM could potentially stop a > specific AuxiliaryServices process from running if it consumes resource way > above its allocation. > Here are some high level ideas: > 1. NM provides a hosting process for each AuxiliaryService. Existing > AuxiliaryService API doesn't change. > 2. The hosting process provides RPC server for AuxiliaryService proxy object > inside NM to connect to. > 3. When we rolling restart NM, the existing AuxiliaryService processes will > continue to run. NM could reconnect to the running AuxiliaryService processes > upon restart. > 4. Policy and resource management of AuxiliaryServices. So far we don't have > immediate need for this. AuxiliaryService could run inside a container and > its resource utilization could be taken into account by RM and RM could > consider a specific type of applications overutilize cluster resource. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yarn-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: yarn-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
