Karthik Kambatla commented on YARN-5215:
----------------------------------------

I am generally supportive of this.

Few questions to clarify the usecase and approach:
# How dynamic does this need to be?
# And, what range of utilization improvements are we targeting here? 60 - 80, 
75 - 80? 
# What are the characteristics of other workload running on these nodes? 

The reason I ask is to see if other approaches would suffice. For instance, 
would it be enough to gracefully increase/decrease the resources for Yarn on 
each node? i.e., {{yarn.nodemanager.resource.*}}. By graceful, I mean the 
decrease succeeds only after the tasks using those resources finish.

> Currently YARN runs containers in the servers assuming that they own all the 
> resources. The proposal is to use the utilization information in the node and 
> the containers to estimate how much is consumed by external processes and 
> schedule based on this estimation.
