[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-6136) Duplicate framework id handling

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-6136?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15472146#comment-15472146 ] 

Joseph Wu commented on MESOS-6136:
----------------------------------

Sounds like you're asking for:
a) A way to orphan tasks on purpose; or
b) The {{failover_timeout}} that the framework is supposed to set: https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/3e52a107c4073778de9c14bf5fcdeb6e342821aa/include/mesos/mesos.proto#L229-L237

>             Project: Mesos
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: general
>    Affects Versions: 0.28.1
>         Environment: DCOS 1.7 Cloud Formation scripts
>            Reporter: Christopher Hunt
>            Priority: Critical
>              Labels: framework, lifecyclemanagement, task

> We have observed a situation where Mesos will kill tasks belonging to a framework where that framework times out with the Mesos master for some reason, perhaps even because of a network partition.
> While we can provide a long timeout so that Mesos will not kill a framework's tasks for practical purposes, I'm wondering if there's an improvement where a framework shouldn't be permitted to re-register for a given id (as now), but Mesos doesn't also kill tasks? What I'm thinking is that Mesos could be "told" by an operator that this condition should be cleared.
> IMHO frameworks should be the only entity requesting that tasks be killed unless manually overridden by an operator.
> I'm flagging this as a critical improvement because a) the focus should be on keeping tasks running in a system, and it isn't; and b) Mesos is working as designed. 
> In summary I feel that Mesos is taking on a responsibility in killing tasks where it shouldn't be.
