Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on YARN-617:
----------------------------------------------
bq. Been reviewing YARN-582, so this will conflict with that patch, mainly the
ones in AMLauncher. Linking tickets..
Actually, looking back, none of the AMLauncher changes should even be there -
let's focus only on the containerToken stuff in this ticket.

> Without security, it is impossible to completely avoid AMs faking resources.
> We can at the least make it as difficult as possible by using the same
> container tokens and the RM-NM shared key mechanism over unauthenticated
> RM-NM channel.
> In the minimum, this will avoid accidental bugs in AMs in unsecure mode.
