Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on YARN-1040:
-----------------------------------------------
We are not converging here and I think we are just looping around on the
argument of whether there are significant semantic changes on the AM-RM
interaction too once multi-use allocations are involved (my take) or not
(yours).
How about we move ahead with the core work, delaying any renames and other
superficial changes to later, and focus simply on getting a prototype out which
should clearly demonstrate what it means for applications?

> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: nodemanager
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0

>
> The AM should be able to exec >1 process in a container, rather than have the
> NM automatically release the container when the single process exits.
> This would let an AM restart a process on the same container repeatedly,
> which for HBase would offer locality on a restarted region server.
> We may also want the ability to exec multiple processes in parallel, so that
> something could be run in the container while a long-lived process was
> already running. This can be useful in monitoring and reconfiguring the
> long-lived process, as well as shutting it down.
