Jay Buffington commented on AURORA-845:
---------------------------------------
The thermos runner is independently useful and has no knowledge of mesos. The
thermos executor (sometimes called the aurora executor) is the glue between
mesos-slave and the thermos_runner processes. It takes protobuf messages
(well, libprocess) from mesos-slave and launches the runner with the correct
data and args.
So, yes, there is no way to specify the parameters to thermos_runner without a
code change. This is intentional. You could view thermos runner as an
implementation detail.

> Thermos is largely undocumented. Off the top of my head, this could cover:
> - thermos is generally useful outside of aurora
> - what args can be passed to thermos runner
> - interactions between aurora executor and thermos runner
> - thermos checkpointing (/var/run/thermos)
> - thermos observer
