This will allow AMs to re-initialize and re-start a container without having to lose the allocation. Additionally, if the localization of the container is assicoated to the initialize (and the cleanup with the destroy), This can also be used by applications to upgrade a Container by re-initializing with a new *ContainerLaunchContext* > [Phase 1] Decouple Container Init / Destroy from Start / Stop > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-4876 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-4876 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Arun Suresh > Assignee: Arun Suresh > > Introduce *initialize* and *destroy* container API into the > *ContainerManagementProtocol* so decouple the actual start of a container > from the initialization.
