> When RM recovers, it can wait for existing AMs to contact RM back and then 
> kill them forcefully before even starting a new AM. Worst case, RM will start 
> a new AppAttempt after waiting for 10 mins ( the expiry interval). This way 
> we'll minimize multiple AMs racing with each other. This can help issues with 
> downstream components like Pig, Hive and Oozie during RM restart.
> In the mean while, new apps will proceed as usual as existing apps wait for 
> recovery.
> This can continue to be useful after work-preserving restart, so that AMs 
> which can properly sync back up with RM can continue to run and those that 
> don't are guaranteed to be killed before starting a new attempt.
