Wenchen Fan commented on SPARK-21023:
-------------------------------------

can't we just introduce something like `--extra-properties-file` for this new 
feature?

> Ignore to load default properties file is not a good choice from the 
> perspective of system

>                 Key: SPARK-21023
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21023
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Spark Submit
>    Affects Versions: 2.1.1
>            Reporter: Lantao Jin
>            Priority: Minor

> The default properties file {{spark-defaults.conf}} shouldn't be ignore to 
> load even though the submit arg {{--properties-file}} is set. The reasons are 
> very easy to see:
> * Infrastructure team need continually update the {{spark-defaults.conf}} 
> when they want set something as default for entire cluster as a tuning 
> purpose.
> * Application developer only want to override the parameters they really want 
> rather than others they even doesn't know (Set by infrastructure team).
> * The purpose of using {{\-\-properties-file}} from most of application 
> developers is to avoid setting dozens of {{--conf k=v}}. But if 
> {{spark-defaults.conf}} is ignored, the behaviour becomes unexpected finally.
> For example:
> Current implement
> ||Property name||Value in default||Value in user-special||Finally value||
> |spark.A|"foo"|"bar"|"bar"|
> |spark.B|"foo"|N/A|N/A|
> |spark.C|N/A|"bar"|"bar"|
> |spark.D|"foo"|"foo"|"foo"|
> |spark.E|"foo"|N/A|N/A|
> |spark.F|"foo"|N/A|N/A|
> Expected right implement
> ||Property name||Value in default||Value in user-special||Finally value||
> |spark.A|"foo"|"bar"|"bar"|
> |spark.B|"foo"|N/A|"foo"|
> |spark.C|N/A|"bar"|"bar"|
> |spark.D|"foo"|"foo"|"foo"|
> |spark.E|"foo"|"foo"|"foo"|
> |spark.F|"foo"|"foo"|"foo"|
> I can offer a patch to fix it if you think it make sense.
