------------------------------------

             Summary: The agent /containers endpoint does not return nested 
containers
                 Key: MESOS-7918
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-7918
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HTTP API
         Environment: DC/OS
            Reporter: Philip Norman


h3. Background
This issue while debugging dcos-metrics. A DC/OS cluster running the HDFS 
framework was missing application metrics. The HDFS tasks were emitting 
metrics. The metrics process was aggregating them. But since no entry was 
available for them in the /containers endpoint, they were not discoverable. 

h3. What is wrong
h3. The agent in question was running two executors and two tasks - four 
containers in total. /containers only showed two containers. It only showed the 
executor containers, not their nested task containers. 

Note the disparity between the output of /tasks and /containers in the attached 
JSON.

h3. Suggested fix
The containers endpoint should display a flattened list of all the containers 
running on the agent.

h3. To reproduce this issue
Start a framework which uses the default executor. Check the /containers output 
of the agent on which it is running.
