Github user markhamstra commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/3550#issuecomment-65194915 The application won't be killed if an executor has been recognized by master as RUNNING (https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/master/Master.scala#L328). The buggy host will just keep trying and failing to launch executors. Detecting and blacklisting buggy hosts seems like a separable and complex issue. It would also be a new feature that maybe we don't want to add to 1.2 at the last minute.
