Hence, \r\n> implementations of a metadata service shared among executors SHOULD either provide centralized\r\n> allocation of UUIDs or partition the UUID space between individual executors.\r\n\r\nPresumably this is because the spec calls out that:\r\n\r\n> The executor must assign an RFC4122 UUID to each pod. This UUID is exposed to the pod through \r\n> the Metadata Service.\r\n\r\nHowever, I didn't see any other place aside from the metadata service that the UUID is exposed.   Why not remove that the executor must generate the UUID, and then you can just say:\r\n\r\n> UUIDs assigned to pods MUST be unique for a given instance of a metadata service.\r\n\r\nThe implementation can then have the metadata service itself generate the UUID if desired.\r\n\r\nIf I am missing a technical reason to have this generated in the executor -- maybe call it out in the spec?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/appc/spec/issues/comments/96864350","html_url":"https://github.com/appc/spec/issues/324#issuecomment-96864350","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/appc/spec/issues/324","id":96864350,"user":{"login":"schancel","id":213740,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/213740?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel","html_url":"https://github.com/schancel","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/schancel/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-04-28T01:06:04Z","updated_at":"2015-04-28T01:06:04Z","body":"Sure, I can do that.
