Jason Lowe commented on YARN-5547:
----------------------------------
That sounds like an excellent idea. If the old software could consult a table
in the database that lists what keys are ignorable then it can fail for any
unrecognized key that isn't in that list and safely ignore ones that are.
> NMLeveldbStateStore should be more tolerant of unknown keys

>
> Whenever new keys are added to the NM state store it will break rolling
> downgrades because the code will throw if it encounters an unrecognized key.
> If instead it skipped unrecognized keys it could be simpler to continue
> supporting rolling downgrades. We need to define the semantics of
> unrecognized keys when containers and apps are cleaned up, e.g.: we may want
> to delete all keys underneath an app or container directory when it is being
> removed from the state store to prevent leaking unrecognized keys.
