+  The fair scheduler supports hierarchical queues. All queues descend from a
+  queue named "root". Available resources are distributed among the children
+  of the root queue in the typical fair scheduling fashion. Then, the children
+  distribute the resources assigned to them to their children in the same
+  fashion.  Applications may only be scheduled on leaf queues. Queues can be
+  specified as children of other queues by placing them as sub-elements of 
+  their parents in the fair scheduler configuration file.
+  
+  A queue's name starts with the names of its parents, with periods as
+  separators. So a queue named "queue1" under the root named, would be referred
+  to as "root.queue1", and a queue named "queue2" under a queue named "parent1"
+  would be referred to as "root.parent1.queue2". When referring to queues, the
+  root part of the name is optional, so queue1 could be referred to as just
+  "queue1", and a queue2 could be referred to as just "parent1.queue2".
+
+  Additionally, the fair scheduler allows setting a different custom policy for
+  each queue to allow sharing the queue's resources in any which way the user
+  wants. A custom policy can be built by extending
+  <<<org.apache.hadoop.yarn.server.resourcemanager.scheduler.fair.SchedulingPolicy>>>.
+  FifoPolicy, FairSharePolicy (default), and DominantResourceFairnessPolicy are
+  built-in and can be readily used.
