Bikas Saha commented on YARN-1366:
----------------------------------
It would be easier for users if the RM would simply accept the first register
from the app and the last finishApplicationMaster() without needing a resync.
Lets says that app version 1 was running and we considered it lost because we
lost network communication. So the RM started version 2 of the app. Then the RM
dies. Then network connectivity for app 1 got restored. Now both v1 and v2 are
trying to make allocate calls to the non-existent RM instance. When the RM
comes back up how does it differentiate between v1 and v2 and keep v2 and ask
v1 to exit? Does this already work? Until now it may not have been a problem
because the RM would always ask these to exit and start a new v3.
> ApplicationMasterService should Resync with the AM upon allocate call after
> restart

> The ApplicationMasterService currently sends a resync response to which the
> AM responds by shutting down. The AM behavior is expected to change to
> calling resyncing with the RM. Resync means resetting the allocate RPC
> sequence number to 0 and the AM should send its entire outstanding request to
> the RM. Note that if the AM is making its first allocate call to the RM then
> things should proceed like normal without needing a resync. The RM will
> return all containers that have completed since the RM last synced with the
> AM. Some container completions may be reported more than once.
