Bikas Saha commented on YARN-72:
--------------------------------
Pids might get reused. so we need to guard against that.
Is there any generic Linux OS mechanism that would make the running containers
die when the NM dies? e.g. On Windows, NM can use JobObject's to make this
happen.
> NM should handle cleaning up containers when it shuts down ( and kill
> containers from an earlier instance when it comes back up after an unclean
> shutdown )

> Ideally, the NM should wait for a limited amount of time when it gets a
> shutdown signal for existing containers to complete and kill the containers (
> if we pick an aggressive approach ) after this time interval.
> For NMs which come up after an unclean shutdown, the NM should look through
> its directories for existing container.pids and try and kill an existing
> containers matching the pids found.
