> After SPARK-13723, the behavior changed for {{spark.dynamicAllocation.initialExecutors}} less then {{spark.dynamicAllocation.minExecutors}} situation.
> initialExecutors < minExecutors is an invalid setting,
> h4. Before SPARK-13723
> If initialExecutors < minExecutors, Spark will throw exception with:
> {code}
> java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: initial executor number xxx must between min executor number xxx and max executor number xxx
> {code}
> This will clearly let user know that current configuration is invalid.
> h4. After SPARK-13723
> Because we also consider {{spark.executor.instances}}, so the initial number is the max value between minExecutors, initialExecutors, numExecutors.
> This will silently ignore the situation where initialExecutors < minExecutors.
> So at least we should add some warning logs to let user know this is an invalid configuration.
> What do you think [~tgraves], [~rdblue]？
