Starting a new thread, already JIRA filed for the same by Gour, https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3561
Slider stop does not stop the components started by slider, instead it stops only SliderAM, and even SliderAgents did not receive 'stop' command. (it happens with debian 7) and tested with 0.70.1 as well as 'develop' branch code. Today I just came across the following mail archive, http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-slider-dev/201503.mbox/%3c1426350060949.97...@hortonworks.com%3E <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< *What is not implemented is an explicit call to "stop function in the python scripts". What I was referring to that an attempt is made by the Agent to call stop in the python script but it is not guaranteed. The reason it is not guaranteed is that the call to stop() and kill of the containers by YARN is not co-ordinated. In summary, the ability to call stop() functions in the python script is not implemented. Its in the plan though.* >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Does this still exists? Thanks, Chackra
