Marcelo Vanzin commented on SPARK-7108:
---------------------------------------
The way I read the documentation, {{spark.local.dir}} should only ever work on
the driver, never on executors, since as the documentation says, that is
managed by the cluster manager (regardless of whether you set SPARK_LOCAL_DIRS
for your app or not - as the doc says, the cluster manager sets that!).
If {{spark.local.dir}} is not working for the driver, then there's a potential
bug here.
> spark.local.dir is no longer honored in Standalone mode

> Key: SPARK-7108
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-7108
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 1.2.1, 1.3.0
> Reporter: Josh Rosen
> Priority: Critical
>
> Prior to SPARK-4834, configuring spark.local.dir in the driver would affect
> the local directories created on the executor. After this patch, executors
> will always ignore this setting in favor of directories read from
> {{SPARK_LOCAL_DIRS}}, which is set by the standalone worker based on the
> worker's own configuration and not the application configuration.
> This change impacts users who configured {{spark.local.dir}} only in their
> driver and not via their cluster's {{spark-defaults.conf}} or
> {{spark-env.sh}} files. This is an atypical use-case, since the available
> local directories / disks are a property of the cluster and not the
> application, which probably explains why this issue has not been reported
> previously.
> The correct fix might be comment + documentation improvements.
