----------------------------------
Summary: External Containerizer can leave a task indefinitely in
STAGING if the `launch` fails
Key: MESOS-1462
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1462
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.19.0
Reporter: Tom Arnfeld
Priority: Blocker
Not sure where else to create issues regarding RC software, but I guess here is
as good as anywhere to record it...
I mentioned it to [~tillt] before so i'm not sure if he thought of a fix (or
has one unpushed). Essentially when you launch a task through an external
containerizer, if the {{launch}} command of the external process fails for
whatever reason (e.g. the fetcher throws an error) the task will sit in the
STAGING state and never be terminated.
At this point, I think it's acceptable to think executor hasn't registered yet,
though that's not guaranteed.
Ping [~bmahler] - I think this is worth holding up the vote to investigate.
