Neil Conway updated MESOS-5368:
-------------------------------
Description:
Currently, agent IDs identify a single "session" by an agent: that is, an agent
receives an agent ID when it registers with the master; it reuses that agent ID
if it disconnects and successfully reregisters; if the agent shuts down and
restarts, it registers anew and receives a new agent ID.
It would be convenient to have a "persistent agent ID" that remains the same
for the duration of a given agent {{work_dir}}. This would mean that a given
persistent volume would not migrate between different persistent agent IDs over
time, for example (see MESOS-4894). If we supported permanently removing an
agent from the cluster (i.e., the {{work_dir}} and any volumes used by the
agent will never be reused), we could use the persistent agent ID to report
which agent has been removed.
