Arun C Murthy commented on YARN-796: ------------------------------------ Agree with [~tucu00] that it's better to reject RRs which ask for non-existent labels. However, to [~djp]'s point, I think rather than rely on adding a label in 2 places (RM & individual NM), we are better off having the RM track existing labels dynamically (add/remove from a global list at RM as NMs register/deregister) and reject RRs as they come in. So, we get both benefit of strict checking and operational simplicity of having to specify things in only one place i.e. the NM. > Allow for (admin) labels on nodes and resource-requests > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-796 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-796 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Arun C Murthy > > It will be useful for admins to specify labels for nodes.
