Jian He commented on YARN-1490:
-------------------------------

- Create a field in AppSubmissionContext to indicate whether to clean the 
containers on AM failure or not.
- Copy the data structures(liveContainers etc.) inside 
SchedulerApplicationAttempt over in the case that new attempt is recovering the 
failed attempt’s scheduler info.
- Similarly, copy the needed data structures(finished Containers etc.) inside 
RMAppAttempt over in the case that new attempt is recovering the failed 
RMAppAttempt info.
- The failed attempt is changed to still receive container events and record 
the finished containers and new attempt is created with the reference of the 
objects of the previous attempt.
- The appAttempt data structure inside the schedulers are removed, only use 
SchedulerApplication.getCurrentAppAttempt to retrieve the current attempt.

> RM should optionally not kill all containers when an ApplicationMaster exits

> This is needed to enable work-preserving AM restart. Some apps can chose to 
> reconnect with old running containers, some may not want to. This should be 
> an option.
