Allen Wittenauer commented on YARN-796: --------------------------------------- b bq. Instead, each node can supply its own labels, via yarn.nodemanager.node.labels (which specifies labels directly) or yarn.nodemanager.node.labelFile (which points to a file that has a single line containing all the labels). It's easy to generate the label file for each node. Why not just generate this on the node manager a la health check or topology? Provide a hook to actually execute the script or the class and have the NM run it by a user-defined period, including "just at a boot". [... and before it gets asked, yes, certain classes of hardware *do* allow such dynamic change.] > 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: Wangda Tan > Attachments: LabelBasedScheduling.pdf, YARN-796.patch > > > It will be useful for admins to specify labels for nodes.
