+Moving applications between queues
+
+  The Fair Scheduler supports moving a running application to a different queue.
+  This can be useful for moving an important application to a higher priority

+  Apps can be moved by running "yarn application -movetoqueue appID -queue
+  targetQueueName".

+  When an application is moved to a queue, its existing allocations become
+  counted with the new queue's allocations instead of the old for purposes

+  fail if the addition of the app's resources to that queue would violate the
+  its maxRunningApps or maxResources constraints.
