Ming Ma commented on MAPREDUCE-5044:
------------------------------------

[~eepayne] I agree with your suggestion. Let us postpone it to a later time.

* {{signalContainers}} was initially suggested as an ordered list of 
{{signalContainer}}. So it could include requests from the same container or 
requests from different containers. It is true that the only use case we know 
of so far is to include requests from the same container.

* We also discussed introducing other commands besides linux signal, for 
example sleep command used to pause between signals, in that way, the new API 
could be just like 
{noformat}
public static SignalContainerRequest newInstance(ContainerId containerId,
    Iterable<SignalContainerCommand> signals) {
...
}
{noformat}

* Will the {{required}} in the protocol buffer definition create any issue if 
we do rolling upgrade from 2.8 to 2.9 and the 2.9 MR AM might send a list of 
SignalContainerCommandProto to 2.8 NM? Maybe 2.8 NM just discards the message, 
not a big deal. Regardless, that is a separate issue that we don't need to 
address it here.

{noformat}
message SignalContainerRequestProto {
....
    required SignalContainerCommandProto command = 2;
}
{noformat}

> When an AM expires a task attempt it would be nice if it triggered a jstack 
> output via SIGQUIT before killing the task attempt.  This would be invaluable 
> for helping users debug their hung tasks, especially if they do not have 
> shell access to the nodes.
