[jira] [Commented] (YARN-1864) Fair Scheduler Dynamic Hierarchical User Queues

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1864?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13956875#comment-13956875 ]

--------------------------------------

Hi Sandy, 
No we won't be able to choose different parent queues with my proposal,all users would be placed under the same parent queue.
I understand what your looking for. I'm working on a design to address these use cases, I'll post it soon. Thanks !

> In Fair Scheduler, we want to be able to create user queues under any parent queue in the hierarchy. For eg. Say user1 submits a job to a parent queue called root.allUserQueues, we want be able to create a new queue called root.allUserQueues.user1 and run user1's job in it.Any further jobs submitted by this user to root.allUserQueues will be run in this newly created root.allUserQueues.user1.
> This is very similar to the 'user-as-default' feature in Fair Scheduler which creates user queues under root queue. But we want the ability to create user queues under ANY parent queue.
> Why do we want this ?
> 1. Preemption : these dynamically created user queues can preempt each other if its fair share is not met. So there is fairness among users.
> User queues can also preempt other non-user leaf queue as well if below fair share.
> 2. Allocation to user queues : we want all the user queries(adhoc) to consume only a fraction of resources in the shared cluster. By creating this feature,we could do that by giving a fair share to the parent user queue which is then redistributed to all the dynamically created user queues.
