Maysam Yabandeh updated YARN-713:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: YARN-713.patch

In the attached patch, the exception is handled in 
RMContainerTokenSecretManager#createContainerToken by returning null. The null 
values are supposed to trigger a try, as in FifoScheduler#assignContainer: 
{code:java}
        if (containerToken == null) {
          return i; // Try again later.
        }
{code}
Regarding the sweep of RM to find other places that a DNS failure should be 
handled properly, I guess a cleaner approach is to directly throw 
UnknownHostException instead of hiding it in a InvalidArgumentException, which 
is also semantically confusing. This however would result in widespread changes 
allover the project, as each user of SecurityUtil must either handle the 
exception or declare it to be caught by its callers. If this approach is fine 
with you guys, I can give it a go.

> As discussed in MAPREDUCE-5261, there's a possibility that a DNS outage could 
> lead to an unhandled exception in the ResourceManager's AsyncDispatcher, and 
> that ultimately would cause the RM to exit.  The RM should not exit during 
> DNS hiccups.
