Jason Lowe commented on YARN-5617:
----------------------------------

It would be good to get some feedback on this proposal.  Also pinging [~jianhe] 
and [~vinodkv] to whom I briefly mentioned this offline.

> AMs only intended to run one attempt can be run more than once

> There are times when a user only wants to run an application with one 
> attempt.  Examples would be cases where the second AM attempt is not prepared 
> to handle recovery or will accidentally corrupt state (e.g.: by re-executing 
> something from scratch that should not be).  Prior to YARN-614 setting the 
> max attempts to 1 would guarantee the app ran at most one attempt, but now it 
> can run more than one attempt if the attempts fail due to a fault not 
> attributed to the application.
