spark-submit does not provide a method to setApplicationTimeouts

 
ApplicationSubmissionContext#setApplicationTimeouts(Map<ApplicationTimeoutType, Long> applicationTimeouts)

This can be used to enforce application maximum lifetime. {}

Javadoc at

https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r3.0.2/api/org/apache/hadoop/yarn/api/records/ApplicationSubmissionContext.html#setApplicationTimeouts-java.util.Map-{}

https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/CapacityScheduler.html

It would be preferable to be able to set this to enforce timeout of an application.

It is possible to set these cluster wide from yarn scheduler queues:

https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/CapacityScheduler.html

{{}}

{{}}

yarn.scheduler.capacity.<queue-path>.maximum-application-lifetime

yarn.scheduler.capacity.root.<queue-path>.default-application-lifetime 

{{}}

however this is suboptimal in many cases as a submitted might have different requirements for application lifetime than the queue defaults.
