> It is possible for a networking issue to happen where the RM thinks an AM has
> gone down and launches a replacement, but the previous AM is still up and
> running. If the previous AM does not need any more resources from the RM it
> could try to commit either tasks or jobs. This could cause lots of problems
> where the second AM finishes and tries to commit too. This could result in
> data corruption.
