Siddharth Seth commented on TEZ-3161:
-------------------------------------
[~oae] - I noticed you watching the jira. Is this something you intend to use
?, and if so, could you please provide some context around scenarios in which
it will be used.
> Allow task to report different kinds of errors - fatal / kill

> In some cases, task failures will be the same across all attempts - e.g.
> exceeding memory utilization on an operation. In this case, there's no point
> in running another attempt of the same task.
> There's other cases where a task may want to mark itself as KILLED - i.e. a
> temporary error. An example of this is pipelined shuffle.
> Tez should allow both operations.
