> We can set the number of slots on the TaskTracker to be high and let FairScheduler handles the slots.
> This approach allows us to change the number of slots on each node dynamically.
> The administrator can change the number of slots with a CLI tool.
> One use case of this is for upgrading the MapReduce.
> Instead of restarting the cluster, we can run the new MapReduce on the same cluster.
> And use the CLI tool to gradually migrate the slots.
> This way we don't lost the progress fo the jobs that's already executed.
