The scheduler organizes apps further into "queues", and shares resources
fairly between these queues. By default, all users share a single queue,
called “default”. If an app specifically lists a queue in a container resource
named “default”. If an app specifically lists a queue in a container resource
request, the request is submitted to that queue. It is also possible to assign
queues based on the user name included with the request through
configuration. Within each queue, a scheduling policy is used to share

Customizing the Fair Scheduler typically involves altering two files. First,
scheduler-wide options can be set by adding configuration properties in the
fair-scheduler.xml file in your existing configuration directory. Second, in

most cases users will want to create a manifest file listing which queues
exist and their respective weights and capacities. The location of this file
