> Currently with executor blacklisting enabled, dynamic allocation on, and you only have 1 active executor (spark.blacklist.killBlacklistedExecutors setting doesn't matter in this case, can be on or off), if you have a task fail that results in the 1 executor you have getting blacklisted, then your entire application will fail.  The error you get is something like:
> Aborting TaskSet 0.0 because task 9 (partition 9)
> cannot run anywhere due to node and executor blacklist.
> This is very undesirable behavior because you may have a huge job but one task is the long tail and if it happens to hit a bad node that would blacklist it, the entire job fail.
> Ideally since dynamic allocation is on, the schedule should not immediately fail but it should let dynamic allocation try to get more executors.
