             Summary: Implement logic to keep docker image consistent in 
application that uses :latest tag
                 Key: YARN-9292
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-9292
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Eric Yang


Docker image with latest tag can run in YARN cluster without any validation in 
node managers. If a image with latest tag is changed during containers launch. 
It might produce inconsistent results between nodes. This is surfaced toward 
end of development for YARN-9184 to keep docker image consistent within a job. 
One of the ideas to keep :latest tag consistent for a job, is to use docker 
image command to figure out the image id and use image id to propagate to rest 
of the container requests. There are some challenges to overcome:

 # The latest tag does not exist on the node where first container starts. The 
first container will need to download the latest image, and find image ID. This 
can introduce lag time for other containers to start.
 # If image id is used to start other container, container-executor may have 
problems to check if the image is coming from a trusted source. Both image name 
and ID must be supply through .cmd file to container-executor. However, hacker 
can supply incorrect image id and defeat container-executor security checks.

If we can over come those challenges, it maybe possible to keep docker image 
consistent with one application.
