Wangda Tan commented on YARN-8569:
----------------------------------
Thanks [~eyang],
And forgot to mention: if we're going to add new functionalities to c-e, it
could be helpful to add a flag to c-e.cfg, and make it off by default. Just
like what we did for YARN-6623 and YARN-6033 to avoid exposing security holes.

> Some program requires container hostnames to be known for application to run.
> For example, distributed tensorflow requires launch_command that looks like:
> {code}
> # On ps0.example.com:
> $ python trainer.py \
> --ps_hosts=ps0.example.com:2222,ps1.example.com:2222 \
> --worker_hosts=worker0.example.com:2222,worker1.example.com:2222 \
> --job_name=ps --task_index=0
> # On ps1.example.com:
> $ python trainer.py \
> --ps_hosts=ps0.example.com:2222,ps1.example.com:2222 \
> --worker_hosts=worker0.example.com:2222,worker1.example.com:2222 \
> --job_name=ps --task_index=1
> # On worker0.example.com:
> $ python trainer.py \
> --ps_hosts=ps0.example.com:2222,ps1.example.com:2222 \
> --worker_hosts=worker0.example.com:2222,worker1.example.com:2222 \
> --job_name=worker --task_index=0
> # On worker1.example.com:
> $ python trainer.py \
> --ps_hosts=ps0.example.com:2222,ps1.example.com:2222 \
> --worker_hosts=worker0.example.com:2222,worker1.example.com:2222 \
> --job_name=worker --task_index=1
> {code}
> This is a bit cumbersome to orchestrate via Distributed Shell, or YARN
> services launch_command. In addition, the dynamic parameters do not work
> with YARN flex command. This is the classic pain point for application
> developer attempt to automate system environment settings as parameter to end
> user application.
> It would be great if YARN Docker integration can provide a simple option to
> expose hostnames of the yarn service via a mounted file. The file content
> gets updated when flex command is performed. This allows application
> developer to consume system environment settings via a standard interface.
> It is like /proc/devices for Linux, but for Hadoop. This may involve
> updating a file in distributed cache, and allow mounting of the file via
> container-executor.
