> When running with docker on large clusters, we have noticed that sometimes 
> docker containers are not removed - they remain in the exited state, and the 
> corresponding container-executor is no longer running.  Upon investigation, 
> we noticed that this always seemed to happen after a nodemanager restart.   
> The sequence leading to the stranded docker containers is:
>  # Nodemanager restarts
>  # Containers are recovered and then run for a while
>  # Containers are killed for some (legitimate) reason
>  # Container-executor exits without removing the docker container.
> After reproducing this on a test cluster, we found that the 
> container-executor was exiting due to a SIGPIPE.
> What is happening is that the shell command executor that is used to start 
> container-executor has threads reading from c-e's stdout and stderr.  When 
> the NM is restarted, these threads are killed.  Then when the 
> container-executor continues executing after the container exits with error, 
> it tries to write to stderr (ERRORFILE) and gets a SIGPIPE.  Since SIGPIPE is 
> not handled, this crashes the container-executor before it can actually 
> remove the docker container.
> We ran into this in branch 2.8.  The way docker containers are removed has 
> been completely redesigned in trunk, so I don't think it will lead to this 
> exact failure, but after an NM restart, potentially any write to stderr or 
> stdout in the container-executor could cause it to crash.
