Bikas Saha commented on MAPREDUCE-4951:
---------------------------------------
I think its RM killing the container via the NM. The RM kill command ends up
sending a containers clean list in the NM heartbeat. NM kills containers in
that list by sending a container_kill event to the container.
> Container preemption interpreted as task failure

> When YARN reports a completed container to the MR AM, it always interprets it
> as a failure. This can lead to a job failing because too many of its tasks
> failed, when in fact they only failed because the scheduler preempted them.
> MR needs to recognize the special exit code value of -100 and interpret it as
> a container being killed instead of a container failure.
