             Summary: Revisit scheduler resource normalization behavior for max 
allocation
                 Key: YARN-7739
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-7739
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Wangda Tan
            Priority: Critical


Currently, YARN Scheduler normalizes requested resource based on the maximum 
allocation derived from configured maximum allocation and maximum registered 
node resources. Basically, the scheduler will silently cap asked resource by 
maximum allocation.

This could cause issues for applications, for example, a Spark job which needs 
12 GB memory to run, however in the cluster, registered NMs have at most 8 GB 
mem on each node. So scheduler allocates 8GB memory container to the requested 
application.

Once app receives containers from RM, if it doesn't double check allocated 
resources, it will lead to OOM and hard to debug because scheduler silently 
caps maximum allocation.
