[david-guzman]

In folder centos74-hadoop31 Yarn generates the following error message:

[2018-04-13 16:09:20.318]
Container [pid=19552,containerID=container_1523635538125_0002_01_000014] 
is running 295074304B beyond the 'VIRTUAL' memory limit. 
Current usage: 115.1 MB of 1 GB physical memory used; 2.4 GB of 2.1 GB virtual memory used. 
Killing container.

It needs the following configuration setting in yarn-site.xml:

  <property>
    <name>yarn.nodemanager.vmem-check-enabled</name>
    <value>false</value>
  </property>
