> Some program requires container hostnames to be known for application to run. 
>  For example, distributed tensorflow requires launch_command that looks like:
> {code}
> # On ps0.example.com:
> $ python trainer.py \
>      --ps_hosts=ps0.example.com:2222,ps1.example.com:2222 \
>      --worker_hosts=worker0.example.com:2222,worker1.example.com:2222 \
>      --job_name=ps --task_index=0
> # On ps1.example.com:
> $ python trainer.py \
>      --ps_hosts=ps0.example.com:2222,ps1.example.com:2222 \
>      --worker_hosts=worker0.example.com:2222,worker1.example.com:2222 \
>      --job_name=ps --task_index=1
> # On worker0.example.com:
> $ python trainer.py \
>      --ps_hosts=ps0.example.com:2222,ps1.example.com:2222 \
>      --worker_hosts=worker0.example.com:2222,worker1.example.com:2222 \
>      --job_name=worker --task_index=0
> # On worker1.example.com:
> $ python trainer.py \
>      --ps_hosts=ps0.example.com:2222,ps1.example.com:2222 \
>      --worker_hosts=worker0.example.com:2222,worker1.example.com:2222 \
>      --job_name=worker --task_index=1

> This is a bit cumbersome to orchestrate via Distributed Shell, or YARN 
> services launch_command.  In addition, the dynamic parameters do not work 
> with YARN flex command.  This is the classic pain point for application 
> developer attempt to automate system environment settings as parameter to end 
> user application.
> It would be great if YARN Docker integration can provide a simple option to 
> expose hostnames of the yarn service via a mounted file.  The file content 
> gets updated when flex command is performed.  This allows application 
> developer to consume system environment settings via a standard interface.  
> It is like /proc/devices for Linux, but for Hadoop.  This may involve 
> updating a file in distributed cache, and allow mounting of the file via 
> container-executor.
