[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-7939) Early disk usage check for garbage collection during recovery

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-7939?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16333088#comment-16333088 ] 

Gilbert Song commented on MESOS-7939:
-------------------------------------

I am downgrading this issue to `Major` in priority, since we don't have a very good solution for now and the potential solution would still need operators to manually restart the agent. Operators could clean up the sandboxes as a workaround.

> Currently the default value for `disk_watch_interval` is 1 minute. This is not fast enough and could lead to the following scenario:
> 1. The disk usage was checked and there was not enough headroom:
> {noformat}
> I0901 17:54:33.000000 25510 slave.cpp:5896] Current disk usage 99.87%. Max allowed age: 0ns
> {noformat}
> But no container was pruned because no container had been scheduled for GC.
> 2. A task was completed. The task itself contained a lot of nested containers, each used a lot of disk space. Note that there is no way for Mesos agent to schedule individual nested containers for GC since nested containers are not necessarily tied to tasks. When the top-lovel container is completed, it was scheduled for GC, and the nested containers would be GC'ed as well:

> 3. Since the next disk usage check was still 40ish seconds away, no GC was performed even though the disk was full. As a result, Mesos agent failed to checkpoint the task status:

> 4. When the agent restarted, it tried to checkpoint the task status again. However, since the first disk usage check was scheduled 1 minute after startup, the agent failed before GC kicked in, falling into a restart failure loop:

> We should kick in GC early, so the agent can recover from this state.
