>             Project: Hadoop YARN
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: fairscheduler
>    Affects Versions: 2.7.1
>         Environment: Ubuntu 14.04, Hadoop 2.7.1, Physical Machines

> When our cluster is configured with preemption, and is fully loaded with an application consuming 1-core containers, it will not kill off these containers when a new application kicks in requesting containers with a size > 1, for example 4 core containers.
> When the "second" application attempts to us 1-core containers as well, preemption proceeds as planned and everything works properly.
> It is my assumption, that the fair-scheduler, while recognizing it needs to kill off some container to make room for the new application, fails to find a SINGLE container satisfying the request for a 4-core container (since all existing containers are 1-core containers), and isn't "smart" enough to realize it needs to kill off 4 single-core containers (in this case) on a single node, for the new application to be able to proceed...
> The exhibited affect is that the new application is hung indefinitely and never gets the resources it requires.
> This can easily be replicated with any yarn application.
> Our "goto" scenario in this case is running pyspark with 1-core executors (containers) while trying to launch h20.ai framework which INSISTS on having at least 4 cores per container.
