Jason Lowe commented on MAPREDUCE-4993:
---------------------------------------
Yes, the AM cannot succeed if it cannot create the common task container launch
context. However the whole point of this JIRA is that it should mark the job
as FAILED or ERROR with an appropriate diagnostic message for the application
rather than marking the job as KILLED. The latter status leads users to
believe someone or something killed the job which is not the case.
> AM thinks it was killed when an error occurs setting up a task container
> launch context

> If an IOException occurs while setting up a container launch context for a
> task then the AM exits with a KILLED status and no diagnostics. The job
