             Summary: support a cluster service job priority 
                 Key: AURORA-1111
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AURORA-1111
             Project: Aurora
          Issue Type: Story
          Components: Scheduler
            Reporter: Jay Buffington


I propose we support a "cluster service" (I'm open to alternative names) 
priority level which is higher than production.  Jobs in this priority would be 
able to preempt production jobs and would not be subject to quota.  Only a very 
small set of cluster administrators would be able to start jobs at this 
priority level.

Thermos observer in it's current incarnation is the best example of something 
that would run at this priority.  We currently accomplish guaranteeing that the 
observer is running by starting it out of band of mesos.  With this change we 
would be able to start an observer on a slave through aurora, even if that 
particular slave is "full" of production tasks.

There are other examples of cluster services, such as a splunk forwarder, or 
the mesos-slave process (eek! turtles!)
