Vlad Rozov updated APEXCORE-777:
--------------------------------
    Description: Consider a scenario where App master requests a container from 
Yarn (numRequestedContainers = 1). There is not enough resources and the 
request timeouts. My understanding is that App master will re-request it again 
but the number of requested containers will not change (one newly requested, 
one removed). Let's assume that App master, by the time Yarn responds back 
decides that it does not need any. If Yarn responds with one allocated 
containers, numRequestedContainers will go to 0 (correct), but Yarn may respond 
back with 2 allocated containers if by the time App Master sends the second 
request it already allocated a container requested in the original request (the 
one that timeouted) as Yarn does not guarantee that removed request is 
fullfilled (see Yarn doc). Will not in this case numRequestedContainers be -1 
due to the bulk decrement?

> Application Master may not shutdown due to incorrect numRequesteContainers 
> counting
