Karthik Kambatla commented on YARN-2791:
----------------------------------------

Thanks [~sdaingade] for sharing the design doc. Well articulated. 

The designs on YARN-2139 and YARN-2791 are very similar, except for the disk 
resources are called vdisks in YARN-2139 and spindles in YARN-2791. In addition 
to the items specified here, YARN-2139 talks about isolation as well. Other 
than that, do you see any major items YARN-2791 covers that YARN-2139? The 
WebUI is good and very desirable, we should definitely include it. Also, 

I suggest we make this (as is - or split into multiple JIRAs) a sub-task of 
YARN-2139. Discussing the high-level details on one JIRA helps with aligning on 
one final design doc based on everyone's suggestions.

> Currently, the number of disks present on a node is not considered a factor 
> while scheduling containers on that node. Having large amount of memory on a 
> node can lead to high number of containers being launched on that node, all 
> of which compete for I/O bandwidth. This multiplexing of I/O across 
> containers can lead to slower overall progress and sub-optimal resource 
> utilization as containers starved for I/O bandwidth hold on to other 
> resources like cpu and memory. This problem can be solved by considering disk 
> as a resource and including it in deciding how many containers can be 
> concurrently run on a node.
