Karthik Kambatla commented on YARN-1014: ---------------------------------------- bq. We were actually planning on getting the ContainersMonitor to kill/preempt opportunistic containers. Right. Same goes for YARN-1011 as well. This (configuring OOM Killer priority) is to address those cases where the reactive monitoring is too late to save processes from getting killed by the OOM Killer. > Configure OOM Killer to kill OPPORTUNISTIC containers first > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-1014 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1014 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Karthik Kambatla > > YARN-2882 introduces the notion of OPPORTUNISTIC containers.
