work with app priorities - the priorities are used as weights to determine the
fraction of total resources that each app should get.
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

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
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
resources between the running apps. The default is memory-based fair sharing,
but FIFO and multi-resource with Dominant Resource Fairness can also be
configured. Queues can be configured with weights to share the cluster non-evenly.
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".

* {Hierarchical queues with pluggable policies}
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.
Certain add-ons are not yet supported which existed in the original (MR1)
