Adam B updated MESOS-2198:
--------------------------
Component/s: documentation
> Document that TaskIDs should not be reused
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-2198
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2198
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: documentation, framework
> Reporter: Robert Lacroix
>
> Let's update the documentation for TaskID to indicate that reuse is not
> recommended.
> -------------
> Old Summary: Scheduler#statusUpdate should not be called multiple times for
> the same status update
> Currently Scheduler#statusUpdate can be called multiple times for the same
> status update, for example when the slave retransmits a status update because
> it's not acknowledged in time. Especially for terminal status updates this
> can lead to unexpected scheduler behavior when task id's are being reused.
> Consider this scenario:
> * Scheduler schedules task
> * Task fails, slave sends TASK_FAILED
> * Scheduler is busy and libmesos doesn't acknowledge update in time
> * Slave retransmits TASK_FAILED
> * Scheduler eventually receives first TASK_FAILED and reschedules task
> * Second TASK_FAILED triggers statusUpdate again and the scheduler can't
> determine if the TASK_FAILED belongs to the first or second run of the task.
> It would be a lot better if libmesos would dedupe status updates and only
> call Scheduler#statusUpdate once per status update it received. Retries with
> the same UUID shouldn't cause Scheduler#statusUpdate to be executed again.
