Kay Ousterhout commented on SPARK-6534:
---------------------------------------

[~sowen] is right that the current behavior is correct (albeit understandably 
confusing!).  The ID is a unique identifier that the scheduler assigns for the 
task attempt.  The scheduler assigns these IDs when tasks are launched, so they 
will always show up as being sequential in the UI.  The "Index" is a unique 
identifier for the partition that the task is computing.  One reason the 
Indexes would not be sequential is if the tasks have locality constraints (so 
the scheduler will launch them as resources on the appropriate machines become 
available).  Also, you'll notice that the indexes are always in [0, tasksInJob) 
whereas the attempt Id only starts at 0 for the first job.  If you run the same 
job again, the attempt Ids will begin at <# tasks already launched for previous 
jobs>.

> Task ID and Index columns appear to be reversed on AM web UI
