----------------------------------------------------------------
Recovery:
Right now {{recover}} is not container or executor specific, hence it shouldn't
fail just because a single one wasn't recoverable for any reason.
Let me draft this from the ExternalContainerizer's point of view in a failure
scenario;
Slave invokes {{launch}} and the EC tries to pass this on to the ECP. Now
assume the slave dies prior to the ECP actually being able to launch anything.
After a {{recover}} the slave now assumes that the ECP will be able to {{wait}}
on that container. The ECP however never {{launch}} ed that container, hence it
is unable to {{wait}}, thus is unable to return a {{Termination}}.
So the problem here has to be seen specifically minding that the ECP and the
slave may have differing status.
The quick way out of this is to allow that {{Termination}} to be optional.
Another way may be to make sure that the container is only checkpointed after a
fully achieved launch?
