Unable to increase Max Application Master Resources

Leave a Comment

I am using uhopper/hadoop docker image to create yarn cluster. I have 3 nodes with 64GB RAM per node. I have added configuration. I have given 32GB to yarn. So total cluster memory is 96GB.

 -    name: YARN_CONF_yarn_scheduler_minimum___allocation___mb       value: "2048"     - name: YARN_CONF_yarn_scheduler_maximum___allocation___mb       value: "16384"     - name:  MAPRED_CONF_mapreduce_framework_name       value: "yarn"      - name: MAPRED_CONF_mapreduce_map_memory_mb       value: "8192"     - name: MAPRED_CONF_mapreduce_reduce_memory_mb       value: "8192"     - name: MAPRED_CONF_mapreduce_map_java_opts       value: "-Xmx8192m"     - name: MAPRED_CONF_mapreduce_reduce_java_opts       value: "-Xmx8192m"     - name: YARN_CONF_yarn_nodemanager_resource_memory___mb       value: "32768" 

Max Application Master Resources is 10240 MB. I ran 5 spark jobs with each 3 GB driver memory, 2 jobs never came in RUNNING state due 10240MB. I am unable to fully utilize my hardware.

I hope, i found an answer, if you change yarn.scheduler.capacity.maximum-am-resource-percent then Max Application Master Resources will change. Here's a documentation - Setting Application Limits from docs.hortonworks.com

Let me know if it worked.

To change the Maximum Application Master resources, you have to change the percentage of yarn.scheduler.capacity.maximum-am-resource-percent , which is by default 0.2 which means 20% of the memory allocated to Yarn.

If I am not wrong, the total memory given to YARN is 10240 MB(10GB), and if the maximum percentage Application master can use is 20% then it makes the memory allocated to AM 2GB.

Now, if you want to allocate more memory to your application-master then simply increase the percentage. But it is recommended that your AM percentage should not be more than 0.5. Hope it makes it clear now.
