Mohammad Kamrul Islam commented on YARN-2481: --------------------------------------------- Very good to know that [~acmurthy]. Just to confirm my understanding: So user can override JAVA_HOME for "each job". right? I assume it is through job conf? > YARN should allow defining the location of java > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-2481 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2481 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Abin Shahab > > Yarn right now uses the location of the JAVA_HOME on the host to launch > containers. This does not work with Docker containers which have their own > filesystem namespace and OS. If the location of the Java binary of the > container to be launched is configurable, yarn can launch containers that > have java in a different location than the host. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
