YARN: Waiting for application to be killed

[#1]

I'm trying to kill an application in YARN but I get the message "Waiting for application ID to be killed".

There is a way to kill it fast? Thanks in advance.

You can try using the YARN APIs to kill an application.

https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.3.6/bk_yarn_resource_mgt/content/ch_yarn_rest_a...

Example:

curl -v -X PUT -d '{"state": "KILLED"}''http://localhost:8088/ws/v1/cluster/apps/application_1409421698529_0012'

.

- But i suspect that it might also be in waiting state.

- Do you see the RM log shows that the app had indeed transitioned from RUNNING to KILLED but still the client is showing "to be killed" then there is an issue

and we might try tuning the "yarn.client.application-client-protocol.poll-timeout-ms" parameter : https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-common/yarn-default.xml It's default value -1 means unlimited wait time.

I tried in YARN API and I got this error message
