Benjamin Mahler reassigned MESOS-1188:
--------------------------------------

    Assignee:     (was: Adam B)

Un-assigning since [~alexandra.sava] may be taking this up along with the slave 
deactivation endpoint.

> Rename slaves/frameworks.activated/deactivated

> The "slaves.deactivated" terminology is confusing because one of these slaves 
> has actually been removed/shutdown, more like a completed framework, whereas 
> "deactivating" a framework is analagous to "disconnecting" a slave.
> The "frameworks.activated" terminology is also confusing, because a 
> DeactivateFrameworkMessage does not remove the framework from 
> frameworks.activated, it just marks framework.active=false and deactivates it 
> in the allocator.
> I can identify the following 3 states for slaves:
> A. Connected: Slave exists in slaves.activated, slave.disconnected=false; 
> disconnects when a checkpointing slave hits exited().
> B. Disconnected: Slave exists in slaves.activated, slave.disconnected=true; 
> reconnects on reregisterSlave.
> C. Shutdown: Slave removed from slaves.activated, pid added to 
> slaves.deactivated; readded to slaves.activated on registerSlave.
> I propose that we rename slaves.activated/deactivated to 
> slaves.running/shutdown to avoid confusion with the framework.active state 
> and deactivateFramework message/action. (Or perhaps registered/unregistered? 
> Or up/down? Or running/removed?)
> Here are the (nearly analagous) framework states:
> A. Active: Framework exists in frameworks.activated, framework.active=true; 
> goes inactive on exited().
> B. Inactive: Framework exists in frameworks.activated, 
> framework.active=false; reactivated on reregister (if before failoverTimeout).
> C. Completed: Framework moved to frameworks.completed; never goes back.
> I propose that we rename frameworks.activated to frameworks.running (or 
> registered?), because you shouldn't have an inactive slave in 
> slaves.activated, but you could in slaves.running.
> I accept any/all naming feedback/suggestions. I just think we need to move 
> away from the ambiguous/overloaded activated/deactivated terms.
