Varun Vasudev commented on YARN-3998:
-------------------------------------

Thanks for the comment Jason!
bq. I believe the old software will ignore unrecognized keys in the state 
store, so we may be OK with a rolling downgrade as long as the resulting 
behavior is expected

I think that's not the case. From 
{code}NMLeveldbStateStoreService#loadContainerState{code}, it looks like we 
throw an exception when we encounter a field we don't know of.
{code}
      } else {
        throw new IOException("Unexpected container state key: " + key);
      }
{code}

Should we file a ticket to get this changed?

The rest of your comment makes sense - I don't see any reason to flag this as 
an incompatible change.

> I'd like to add a field(retry-times) in ContainerLaunchContext. When AM 
> launches containers, it could specify the value. Then NM will re-launch the 
> container 'retry-times' times when it fails to run(e.g.exit code is not 0). 
> It will save a lot of time. It avoids container localization. RM does not 
> need to re-schedule the container. And local files in container's working 
> directory will be left for re-use.(If container have downloaded some big 
> files, it does not need to re-download them when running again.) 
> We find it is useful in systems like Storm.
