Jian He commented on YARN-3480:
-------------------------------
[~hex108], thanks for your explanations.
I can see this will be a problem for long running apps, as the number of
attempts will just keep increasing.
To be consistent with the attemptFailureValidityWindow for long running apps,
instead of introducing a global hard limit, How about removing the attempt
records that's beyond the validity window ?
> Make AM max attempts stored in RMAppImpl and RMStateStore to be configurable

> When RM HA is enabled and running containers are kept across attempts, apps
> are more likely to finish successfully with more retries(attempts), so it
> will be better to set 'yarn.resourcemanager.am.max-attempts' larger. However
> it will make RMStateStore(FileSystem/HDFS/ZK) store more attempts, and make
> RM recover process much slower. It might be better to set max attempts to be
> stored in RMStateStore.
> BTW: When 'attemptFailuresValidityInterval'(introduced in YARN-611) is set to
> a small value, retried attempts might be very large. So we need to delete
> some attempts stored in RMStateStore and RMStateStore.
