Wangda Tan commented on YARN-3410:
----------------------------------
Thanks for your comment, [~rohithsharma].
But what's the use case of using rmadmin removing a state while RM is running?
The command is just a way to avoid app entered an un-expected state so RM
cannot get started, unless there's any use case of doing that, I suggest to
scope this to a RM starting option like YARN-2131.
> YARN admin should be able to remove individual application records from
> RMStateStore

> Key: YARN-3410
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3410
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: resourcemanager, yarn
> Reporter: Wangda Tan
> Assignee: Rohith
> Priority: Critical
>
> When RM state store entered an unexpected state, one example is YARN-2340,
> when an attempt is not in final state but app already completed, RM can never
> get up unless format RMStateStore.
> I think we should support remove individual application records from
> RMStateStore to unblock RM admin make choice of either waiting for a fix or
> format state store.
> In addition, RM should be able to report all fatal errors (which will
> shutdown RM) when doing app recovery, this can save admin some time to remove
> apps in bad state.
