Karthik Kambatla commented on YARN-1410:
----------------------------------------

I guess we need to define what it means for an application submission to be 
successful. As a user, I would assume the submission is successful if the RM 
has stored it in a place it is not going to lose. In a restart/ HA setup, this 
translates to the app being saved to the store. So, 
ClientRMService#submitApplication should ideally return only after the app is 
saved. 

When a scheduler rejects an application, we should probably kick it out of the 
store or add a REJECTED final state so we don't try recovering a rejected app 
in case of a failover.

> App submission involves
> 1) creating appId
> 2) using that appId to submit an ApplicationSubmissionContext to the user.
> The client may have obtained an appId from an RM, the RM may have failed 
> over, and the client may submit the app to the new RM.
> Since the new RM has a different notion of cluster timestamp (used to create 
> app id) the new RM may reject the app submission resulting in unexpected 
> failure on the client side.
> The same may happen for other 2 step client API operations.
