>                 Key: SPARK-21383
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21383
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: YARN
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
>            Reporter: Thomas Graves
>
> The YarnAllocator doesn't properly track containers being launched but not 
> yet running.  If it takes time to launch the containers on the NM they don't 
> show up as numExecutorsRunning, but they are already out of the Pending list, 
> so if the allocateResources call happens again it can think it has missing 
> executors even when it doesn't (they just haven't been launched yet).
> This was introduced by SPARK-12447 
> Where it check for missing:
> https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/resource-managers/yarn/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/yarn/YarnAllocator.scala#L297
> Only updates the numRunningExecutors after NM has started it:
> https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/resource-managers/yarn/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/yarn/YarnAllocator.scala#L524
> Thus if the NM is slow or the network is slow, it can miscount and start 
> additional executors.
