As per discussion happened in YARN-2896 with Eric Payne and Wangda Tan, there is proposal to use Integer alone as priority from client and as well as in server. As per design doc, a priority label was used as wrapper for user and internally server was using corresponding integer with same. We can continue discussion on this here in parent JIRA. Looping Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli.
Current idea:
yarn.prority-labels = low:2, medium:4, high:6
Proposed:
yarn.application.priority = 2, 3 , 4

Without some sort of labels, it will be very hard for users to reason about the definition and relative importance of priorities across queues and cluster. We must support the notion of priority-labels to make this feature usable in practice.

> It will be very useful to support priorities among applications within the same queue, particularly in production scenarios. It allows for finer-grained controls without having to force admins to create a multitude of queues, plus allows existing applications to continue using existing queues which are usually part of institutional memory.
