Node-local-unscheduler for scheduling remediation

A method comprising:

• scheduling, by a scheduler, a container of one or more containers on a first node;
• determining, by a node-local-unscheduler (NLU), a status of the container as failing validation because the container and the first node have conflicting scheduling policies;
• responsive to determining the status of the container as failing validation, writing, by the NLU, an entry relating to the container;
• stopping, by the NLU, execution of the container;
• responsive to detecting the entry, rescheduling the container to a second node in a higher priority queue;
• and
• removing the entry.

A non-transitory machine readable medium storing code, which when executed by one or more processors, causes a node-local-unscheduler (NLU) to:

• determine a status of a container scheduled on a first node as failing validation because the container and the first node have conflicting scheduling policies;
• responsive to determining the status of the container as failing validation, write an entry relating to the container;
• stop execution of the container;
• responsive to detecting the entry, reschedule the container to a second node in a higher priority queue;
• and
• responsive to rescheduling the container, remove the entry.
