Jian He commented on YARN-2052:
-------------------------------
On RM startup, RM may need to read and rewrite this epoch number synchronously.
I'm unsure this is acceptable.
But adding a new field will be incompatible, specifically if application logic
depends on ContainerId.getId to get the integer.
> ContainerId creation after work preserving restart is broken

> Container ids are made unique by using the app identifier and appending a
> monotonically increasing sequence number to it. Since container creation is a
> high churn activity the RM does not store the sequence number per app. So
> after restart it does not know what the new sequence number should be for new
> allocations.
