> We know that all executors will be gone once the host on which an agent is 
> running is rebooted, so there's no need to try to recover these executors.
> Trying to recover stopped executors can lead to problems if another process 
> is assigned the same pid that the executor had before the reboot. In this 
> case the agent will unsuccessfully try to reregister with the executor, and 
> then transition it to a {{TERMINATING}} state. The executor will sadly get 
> stuck in that state, and the tasks that it started will get stuck in whatever 
> state they were in at the time of the reboot.
> One way of getting rid of stuck executors is to remove the {{latest}} symlink 
> under {{work_dir/meta/slaves/latest/frameworks/<framework 
> id>/executors/<executor id>/runs}.
> Here's how to reproduce this issue:
> # Start a task using the Docker containerizer (the same will probably happen 
> with the command executor).
> # Stop the corresponding Mesos agent while the task is running.
> # Change the executor's checkpointed forked pid, which is located in the meta 
> directory, e.g., 
> {{/var/lib/mesos/slave/meta/slaves/latest/frameworks/19faf6e0-3917-48ab-8b8e-97ec4f9ed41e-0001/executors/foo.13faee90-b5f0-11e7-8032-e607d2b4348c/runs/latest/pids/forked.pid}}.
>  I used pid 2, which is normally used by {{kthreadd}}.
> # Reboot the host
