-----------------------------------

             Summary: hadoop-yarn-server-nodemanager's use of Linux Cgroups is non-portable
                 Key: YARN-3718
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3718
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: nodemanager
    Affects Versions: 2.7.0
         Environment: BSD OSX Solaris Windows Linux
            Reporter: Alan Burlison


hadoop-yarn-project/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-server/hadoop-yarn-server-nodemanager/src/main/native/container-executor/impl/container-executor.c makes use of the Linux-only Cgroups feature (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cgroups) when Hadoop is built on Linux, but there is no corresponding functionality for non-Linux platforms.

Other platforms provide similar functionality, e.g. Solaris has an extensive range of resource management features (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1460/index.html). Work is needed to abstract the resource management features of Yarn so that the same facilities for resource management can be provided on all platforms that provide the requisite functionality,
