             Summary: Fix race condition with airflow run
                 Key: AIRFLOW-1493
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1493
             Project: Apache Airflow
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Alex Guziel
            Assignee: Alex Guziel


Currently, airflow run spawns a process `airflow run --local` which spawns 
`airflow run --raw`.

Local manages the heartbeat. Raw performs a series of checks, sets the state to 
running, runs the task, then sets the state to failed or success. 

The problem is the heartbeat check on `airflow run --local` has to monitor the 
state in the DB, but because the change of state to running happens 
asynchronously, it must first observe the state in the DB to be running before 
it has the power of termination. However, there is no guarantee that it will 
observe this state. Thus, we should  move the pre-execution logic to airflow 
run --local
