Jian He commented on YARN-2052:
-------------------------------

Application itself may possibly use Container.getId to differentiate the 
containers,  two containers allocated by two RMs may have the same id integer, 
then the application logic will break. will this be fine?
If we are taking this approach of adding a new field to differentiate the 
containerId, we should at least document that ContainerId.getid is not the way 
to differentiate containers.

> 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.
