Chris Douglas commented on YARN-5621:
-------------------------------------
bq. this approach will not work in rollback scenario, as in that case no
resources need to be localized - hence, no need to start the localizer
processes. We only need to update the symlinks to old resources.
Sorry, I'm missing something. If the {{ContainerLocalizer}} supports a command
to create symlinks to localized resources- a case that already exists for
containers on the same node requesting the same resource- then how is that case
distinguished from rollback? The container does need to start a
{{ContainerLocalizer}} just to write some symlinks for the running container,
which is inefficient. On the other hand, all symlinks for all containers from
an application could be updated in the same invocation. When you say it does
not work, are you noting the inefficiency of this flow, or is there a
correctness problem?
