STATUS_CONTAINER_ASSIGNED

The job already owns a container assignment

Windows returns STATUS_CONTAINER_ASSIGNED while handling job, task, callback, or isolation state. A second container or silo assignment was attempted for a job that already has one. Container identity is part of the job hierarchy and cannot be casually replaced in place.

Query the existing job/silo relationship, creation order and process membership. Create a new job hierarchy when a different container is required.

Container assignment is a one-time relationship for the job. If a second assignment was not expected, trace job creation and setup ownership so two initialization paths do not race to configure the same job object.
