[jira] [Commented] (FLINK-956) Add a parameter to the YARN command line script that allows to define the amount of MemoryManager memory

["Robert Metzger (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-956?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14037552#comment-14037552 ] 

Robert Metzger commented on FLINK-956:
--------------------------------------

The {{taskmanager.heap.mb}} is the value that the user is passing with {{-tm}}. It is optional (with a default value of 1024).

So this issue boils down to adding a parameter for {{taskmanager.memory.size}}. 
The user could also just set the value in the configuration. I'm not 100% convinced if it is really necessary to expose this value to the command line. Somebody who's going to set this is most likely a advanced user that is going to change the configuration anyways (for example for the network buffers)

> The current parameter specifies the YARN container size.
> It would be nice to have parameters for the JVM heap size {{taskmanager.heap.mb}} and the amount of memory that goes to the memory manager {{taskmanager.memory.size}}. Both should be optional.
