Bikas Saha commented on TEZ-1539:
---------------------------------

Setting aside the discussion on the change in semantics and looking at the 
patch itself.

Someone familiar with recovery needs to look at the recovery code. But we 
should follow this event flow to make sure its not DataMovementEvent specific. 
If so, then rename the event please
{code}           VertexDataMovementEventsGeneratedEvent historyEvent =
               new VertexDataMovementEventsGeneratedEvent(vertex.vertexId,
-                  dataMovementEvents);
+                  recoveryEvents);{code}

In route event the code is tracking the source vertex name but then dropping 
the source vertex name when storing the event because the key i the map is 
taskId. If there are multiple source vertices then the taskIds would over-write 
each other. OR are we only going to support a single source vertex? If so, then 
that should be documented.

> Pasting comment from TEZ-1447
> In a majority of cases, events generated by different attempts of the same 
> task will be identical - in which case just making use of the event generated 
> by the first successful attempt is adequate. Doing something like this manes 
> that users don't worry about retries, indices etc - and can just rely on 
> receiving a set of events which are to be processed once the vertex succeeds.
> If different attempts of the same workload generate different events - 
> processing is likely to be incorrect, since it's very possible for all data 
> to be processed (VERTEX successful), then a failure and retry - which 
> generates a different event. The initializer doesn't even run at this point, 
> since it's already done it's work and is complete. Handling such scenarios, 
> likely involves re-running the entire initializer and re-starting the vertex 
> which processed the event from scratch. In situations like this, where data 
> generated may be different, the best bet is for speculation to be disabled 
> (when it's supported), and max-attempts to be set to 1.
