[jira] [Updated] (MAPREDUCE-3897) capacity scheduler - maxActiveApplicationsPerUser calculation can be wrong

["Eric Payne (Updated) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3897?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eric Payne updated MAPREDUCE-3897:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: MAPREDUCE-3897-1.txt

Changed calculation for maxActiveApplications.

Old: maxActiveApplications = Max((((total cluster mem) / minimumAllocation) * maxAMResourcePercent * absoluteMaxCapacity),1)

New: maxActiveApplications = Max((((total cluster mem) / minimumAllocation) * maxAMResourcePercent * absoluteCapacity),1)

By using absoluteCapacity rather than absoluteMaxCapacity, the result is based on a per-queue capacity and prevents a small queue from hitting the deadlock condition of being filled with all AMs.

This fix will be further enhanced when it is possible to specify maxAMResourcePercent on a per-queue basis (see MAPREDUCE:3893)

> The capacity scheduler calculates the maxActiveApplications and the maxActiveApplicationsPerUser based on the config yarn.scheduler.capacity.maximum-applications or default 10000.  
> MaxActiveApplications = max ( ceil ( clusterMemory/minAllocation * maxAMResource% * absoluteMaxCapacity), 1)  
> MaxActiveAppsPerUser = max( ceil (maxActiveApplicationsComputedAbove * (userLimit%/100) * userLimitFactor), 1) 
> maxActiveApplications is already multiplied by the queue absolute MAXIMUM capacity, so if max capacity > capacity and if you have user limit factor 1 (which is the default) and only 1 user is running, that user will not be allowed to use over the queue capacity, so having it relative to MAX capacity doesn't make sense.  That user could easily end up in a deadlock and all its space used by application masters.
