----------------------------------------------
+1, this looks good. Checking it in.
> Change the default global AM max-attempts value to be not one

> Today, the global AM max-attempts is set to 1 which is a bad choice. AM
> max-attempts accounts for both AM level failures as well as container crashes
> due to localization issue, lost nodes etc. To account for AM crashes due to
> problems that are not caused by user code, mainly lost nodes, we want to give
> AMs some retires.
> I propose we change it to atleast two. Can change it to 4 to match other
> retry-configs.
