Sunil G commented on YARN-1963: ------------------------------- Thank you [~vinodkv] and [~nroberts] for the comments. Considering usability ways, labels will be handy. And scheduler must be agnostic of labels and should handle only integers like in linux. This will have a complexity on priority manager inside RM which will translate label -> integer an vice versa. But a call can be taken by seeing all possibilities and can be standardized the same so that a minimal working version can be pushed in by improvising on the patches submitted (working prototype was attached). Hoping [~leftnoteasy] and [~eepayne] to join the discussion. > Support priorities across applications within the same queue > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-1963 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1963 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: api, resourcemanager > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Sunil G > Attachments: 0001-YARN-1963-prototype.patch, YARN Application > Priorities Design.pdf, YARN Application Priorities Design_01.pdf > > > It will be very useful to support priorities among applications within the > same queue, particularly in production scenarios. It allows for finer-grained > controls without having to force admins to create a multitude of queues, plus > allows existing applications to continue using existing queues which are > usually part of institutional memory. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
