Description

Currently 'default' rule in queue placement policy,if applied,puts the app in root.default queue. It would be great if we can make 'default' rule optionally point to a different queue as default queue .
This default queue can be a leaf queue or it can also be an parent queue if the 'default' rule is nested inside nestedUserQueue rule(YARN-1864).
