Tsuyoshi OZAWA commented on YARN-2052: -------------------------------------- I meant starting apps from a clean state after the restart like RM restart phase 1. If the sequence numbers are reset to zero, some applications can do unexpected behavior because the {{ContainerId#compareTo}} doesn't work correctly. If the apps start from a clean state, we can avoid the situation. > ContainerId creation after work preserving restart is broken > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: YARN-2052 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2052 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: resourcemanager > Reporter: Tsuyoshi OZAWA > Assignee: Tsuyoshi OZAWA > Attachments: YARN-2052.1.patch, YARN-2052.2.patch, YARN-2052.3.patch > > > Container ids are made unique by using the app identifier and appending a > monotonically increasing sequence number to it. Since container creation is a > high churn activity the RM does not store the sequence number per app. So > after restart it does not know what the new sequence number should be for new > allocations. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
