I am try to make the example work well from the above link.but I can't compile the code below
Resource capability = Records.newRecord(Resource.class);
capability.setMemory(512);
amContainer.setResource(capability);
// Set the container launch content into the
// ApplicationSubmissionContext
appContext.setAMContainerSpec(amContainer);
amContainer is ContainerLaunchContext and my hadoop version is 2.1.0-beta. I did some investigation. I found there's no method "setResource" in ContainerLaunchContext
I have 3 question about this
1) the method has been removed or something?
2) if the method has been removed, how can I do now?
3) is there any doc about yarn, because I found the doc in website is very easy, I hope I can get a manual or something. for example,
capability.setMemory(512);
I don't know it's 512k or 512M according comments in code.
You can set memory available to ApplicationMaster via commend. As such:
// Set the necessary command to execute the application master
Vector<CharSequence> vargs = new Vector<CharSequence>(30);
...
vargs.add("-Xmx" + amMemory + "m"); // notice "m" indicating megabytes, you can use also -Xms combined with -Xmx
... // transform vargs to String commands
amContainer.setCommands(commands);
This should solve your problem. As for the 3 questions. Yarn is rapidly evolving software. My advice forget documentation, get source code and read it. This will answer a lot of your questions.
