Jun Gong commented on YARN-4497: -------------------------------- In *RMStateStore#notifyStoreOperationFailedInternal*, RMStateStore might skip store errors, so RMStateStore might fail to store attempt2 for some reasons(e.g. network error), but the app could continue running, and starts a new attempt attempt3, then RMStateStore stores attempt3 successfully(suppose network is OK now). > RM might fail to restart when recovering apps whose attempts are missing > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: YARN-4497 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-4497 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Jun Gong > Assignee: Jun Gong > > Find following problem when discussing in YARN-3480. > If RM fails to store some attempts in RMStateStore, there will be missing > attempts in RMStateStore, for the case storing attempt1, attempt2 and > attempt3, RM successfully stored attempt1 and attempt3, but failed to store > attempt2. When RM restarts, in *RMAppImpl#recover*, we recover attempts one > by one, for this case, we will recover attmept1, then attempt2. When > recovering attempt2, we call > *((RMAppAttemptImpl)this.currentAttempt).recover(state)*, it will first find > its ApplicationAttemptStateData, but it could not find it, an error will come > at *assert attemptState != null*(*RMAppAttemptImpl#recover*, line 880). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
