Alan Burlison commented on YARN-3718: ------------------------------------- Yes, I created a new top-level task and moved it under there as there are a couple of other YARN-related issues as well. -- Alan Burlison -- > hadoop-yarn-server-nodemanager's use of Linux Cgroups is non-portable > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-3718 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3718 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: nodemanager > Affects Versions: 2.7.0 > Environment: BSD OSX Solaris Windows Linux > Reporter: Alan Burlison > > hadoop-yarn-project/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-server/hadoop-yarn-server-nodemanager/src/main/native/container-executor/impl/container-executor.c > makes use of the Linux-only Cgroups feature > (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cgroups) when Hadoop is built on Linux, but > there is no corresponding functionality for non-Linux platforms. > Other platforms provide similar functionality, e.g. Solaris has an extensive > range of resource management features > (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1460/index.html). Work is > needed to abstract the resource management features of Yarn so that the same > facilities for resource management can be provided on all platforms that > provide the requisite functionality, -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
