Thank you for your response! I guess the (Spark)AM, who gives the container leash to the NM (along with the executor JAR and command to run) must know how many CPU or RAM that container capped, isolated at. There must be a resource vector along the encrypted container leash if I'm right that describes this. Or maybe is there a way for the ExecutorBackend to fetch this information directly from the environment? Then, the ExecutorBackend would be able to hand over this information to the actual Executor who creates the TaskRunner.
