configurations required for the Car
     | carbon.enable.calculate.size | true | **For Load Operation**: Setting 
this property calculates the size of the carbon data file (.carbondata) and 
carbon index file (.carbonindex) for every load and updates the table status 
file. **For Describe Formatted**: Setting this property calculates the total 
size of the carbon data files and carbon index files for the respective table 
and displays in describe formatted command.**NOTE:** This is useful to 
determine the overall size of the carbondata table and also get an idea of how 
the table is growing in order to take up other backup strategy decisions. |
     | carbon.cutOffTimestamp | (none) | CarbonData has capability to generate 
the Dictionary values for the timestamp columns from the data itself without 
the need to store the computed dictionary values. This configuration sets the 
start date for calculating the timestamp. Java counts the number of 
milliseconds from start of "1970-01-01 00:00:00". This property is used to 
customize the start of position. For example "2000-01-01 00:00:00". **NOTE:** 
The date must be in the form ***carbon.timestamp.format***. CarbonData supports 
storing data for upto 68 years.For example, if the cut-off time is 1970-01-01 
05:30:00, then data upto 2038-01-01 05:30:00 will be supported by CarbonData. |
     | carbon.timegranularity | SECOND | The configuration is used to specify 
the data granularity level such as DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, or SECOND.This helps to 
store more than 68 years of data into CarbonData. |
    -| carbon.use.local.dir | false | CarbonData during data loading, writes 
files to local temp directories before copying the files to HDFS.This 
configuration is used to specify whether CarbonData can write locally to tmp 
directory of the container or to the YARN application directory. |
    +| carbon.use.local.dir | false | CarbonData,during data loading, writes 
files to local temp directories before copying the files to HDFS.This 
configuration is used to specify whether CarbonData can write locally to tmp 
directory of the container or to the YARN application directory. |
     | carbon.use.multiple.temp.dir | false | When multiple disks are present 
in the system, YARN is generally configured with multiple disks to be used as 
temp directories for managing the containers.This configuration specifies 
whether to use multiple YARN local directories during data loading for disk IO 
load balancing.Enable ***carbon.use.local.dir*** for this configuration to take 
effect.**NOTE:** Data Loading is an IO intensive operation whose performance 
can be limited by the disk IO threshold, particularly during multi table 
concurrent data load.Configuring this parameter, balances the disk IO across 
multiple disks there by improving the over all load performance. |

    you mean make it true by default? i think thats not the scope of this PR
