This > is analogous to the task attempt kill support provided by MapReduce. > This feature would be useful in a scenario where AM retries are enabled, the > AM supports recovery, and a particular AM attempt is stuck. Currently if > this occurs the user's only recourse is to kill the entire application, > requiring them to resubmit a new application and potentially breaking > downstream dependent jobs if it's part of a bigger workflow. Killing the > attempt would allow a new attempt to be started by the RM without killing the > entire application, and if the AM supports recovery it could potentially save > a lot of work. It could also be useful in workflow scenarios where the > failure of the entire application kills the workflow, but the ability to kill > an attempt can keep the workflow going if the subsequent attempt succeeds. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
