Naganarasimha G R commented on YARN-3945: ----------------------------------------- Also typo in the documentation, it has 2 "The" in the highlighted description in the document. Also i feel we need to mention what is the effective formula for max number of applications based on {{yarn.scheduler.capacity.<queue-path>.minimum-user-limit-percent}} and {{yarn.scheduler.capacity.<queue-path>.user-limit-factor}} thoughts? > maxApplicationsPerUser is wrongly calculated > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-3945 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3945 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Bug > Components: capacityscheduler > Affects Versions: 2.7.1 > Reporter: Naganarasimha G R > Assignee: Naganarasimha G R > > maxApplicationsPerUser is currently calculated based on the formula > {{maxApplicationsPerUser = (int)(maxApplications * (userLimit / 100.0f) * > userLimitFactor)}} but description of userlimit is > {quote} > Each queue enforces a limit on the percentage of resources allocated to a > user at any given time, if there is demand for resources. The user limit can > vary between a minimum and maximum value.{color:red} The the former (the > minimum value) is set to this property value {color} and the latter (the > maximum value) depends on the number of users who have submitted > applications. For e.g., suppose the value of this property is 25. If two > users have submitted applications to a queue, no single user can use more > than 50% of the queue resources. If a third user submits an application, no > single user can use more than 33% of the queue resources. With 4 or more > users, no user can use more than 25% of the queues resources. A value of 100 > implies no user limits are imposed. The default is 100. Value is specified as > a integer. > {quote} > configuration related to minimum limit should not be made used in a formula > to calculate max applications for a user -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
