                 Key: HADOOP-6651
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6651
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 0.20.2, 0.20.1, 0.20.0
            Reporter: Alok Singh


Hi,

   Currently , in both streaming and normal mode hadoop mapred program, user 
can't download the 
logs programatically.

jobclient.output.filter=ALL, allows user to print output in the stdout/stderr


We need to have the ability to fetch the user logs from the framework.

in 0.18, under the hod , we used to store the logs in the hdfs.
For 0.20, as long as the jobhistory resides user can view the logs but then 
it's gone.

So in short , I am proposing that hadoop 
1) provide the options to the JobClient (i.e jobconf var 
jobclient.output.logs.location), so that it will download the output in the 
hdfs location instead of printing to stdout.

Thanks
Alok
