[jira] [Commented] (YARN-2) Enhance CS to schedule accounting for
both memory and cpu cores
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13476251#comment-13476251 ]
Alejandro Abdelnur commented on YARN-2:
---------------------------------------
*Num cores...*
I'd prefer to use a float instead of a int because it will avoid user confusion on what the integer part of the number means, specially when dealing with clusters with large number of cores in their nodes.
*NM memory and CPU configs*
Currently these values are coming from the config of the NM, we should be able to obtain those values from the OS (ie, in the case of Linux from /proc/meminfo & /proc/cpuinfo). As this is highly OS dependent we should have an interface that obtains this information. In addition implementations of this interface should be able to specify a mem/cpu offset (amount of mem/cpu not to be avail as YARN resource), this would allow to reserve mem/cpu for the OS and other services outside of YARN containers.
I did a quick search and I couldn't find a JIRA for this, opening YARN-160.

> With YARN being a general purpose system, it would be useful for several applications (MPI et al) to specify not just memory but also CPU (cores) for their resource requirements. Thus, it would be useful to the CapacityScheduler to account for both.
