Sandy Ryza commented on YARN-2555: ---------------------------------- [~gp.leftnoteasy], this isn't the same as having an NM variable affect the RM conf. Considering the effective max allocation as the biggest node means rejecting requests that won't fit on any node, which I believe is the correct behavior. The issue I had with YARN-2422 was handling at this at the configuration level, rather than properly handling this for heterogeneous clusters. Thanks for pointing that out [~agentvindo.dev] - agreed that this duplicates YARN-56. I think something like the approach outlined here probably makes the most sense for that JIRA. > Effective max-allocation-* should consider biggest node > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-2555 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2555 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.5.1 > Reporter: Karthik Kambatla > > The effective max-allocation-mb should be > min(admin-configured-max-allocation-mb, max-mb-on-one-node), so we can reject > container requests for resources larger than any node.
