bc Wong commented on YARN-796:
------------------------------

Having the NMs specify their own labels is probably better from an 
administrative point of view. It's harder for the labels to get out of sync. 
Each node can have a "discovery script" that updates its labels, which feeds 
into the NM. So an admin can take a bunch of nodes out for upgrade, and put 
them back in without having to carefully reconfigure any central mapping file.

> Allow for (admin) labels on nodes and resource-requests

> It will be useful for admins to specify labels for nodes. Examples of labels 
> are OS, processor architecture etc.
> We should expose these labels and allow applications to specify labels on 
> resource-requests.
> Obviously we need to support admin operations on adding/removing node labels.
