             Summary: Consider introducing persistent agent ID
                 Key: MESOS-5368
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5368
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Neil Conway


Currently, agent IDs identify a single "session" by an agent: that is, an agent 
receives an agent ID when it registers with the master; it reuses that agent ID 
if it disconnects and successfully reregisters; if the agent shuts down and 
restarts, it registers anew and receives a new agent ID.

It would be convenient to have a "persistent agent ID" that remains the same 
for the duration of a given agent {{work_dir}}. This would mean that a given 
persistent volume would not migrate between different agent IDs over time, for 
example (see MESOS-4894). If we supported permanently removing an agent from 
the cluster (i.e., the {{work_dir}} and any volumes used by the agent will 
never be reused), we could use the persistent agent ID to report which agent 
has been removed.
