Changing Yarn queue in Spark application

Question

I am running a Yarn Spark application. The queue being used by Yarn to submit the application is set to default. I have another queue that I want to use for this purpose. Can someone tell me how I can change the default queue to some other queue?

Answer 1

To change the default queue to which the application is submitted, you can use the below command and replace the value with the name of the queue you want to use. 

val sc = new SparkContext(new SparkConf())

./bin/spark-submit <all your existing options> --spark.yarn.queue=<name of queue>
