Moving to yarn-dev, as that is the right place for this discussion.

Can you let us know more about what  you are trying to accomplish? Working with 
MapReduce over YARN or your own YARN application?

If you are working with MR over YARN, you have to note that 
TaskId/TaskAttemptID/Map/Reduce tasks are MapReduce concepts. So 
ResourceManager has no idea about them. MapReduce ApplicationMaster is the 
place where you can obtain more such MR specific information.

If it is the later, your question is moot.
