    Yes, it is expected that the driver would come up at a different address. 
The driver "pings" the executors when it comes up (there is a doc on the jira + 
some discussion regarding this) - which persist the driver failure. Once the 
driver pings the executors, it gets the block info stored in executor memory to 
reconstruct the batch of data which has not been persisted yet.
    
    In client mode, it is tricky because the AM is unmanaged - so YARN will not 
restart this - so we'd need some kind of watchdog/wrapper - for now, I think 
Cluster mode is the only one we can think of.
