Aaron T. Myers commented on MAPREDUCE-2644: ------------------------------------------- Hey Josh, the usual thing done in the rest of the Hadoop code when providing a default value for a config is to use the two-argument version of {{Configuration.get(...)}} whose first argument is the config key and whose second argument will be returned as the value if no value for that key is set in the conf object. > NodeManager fails to create containers when NM_LOG_DIR is not explicitly set > in the Configuration > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-2644 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2644 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mrv2 > Reporter: Josh Wills > Assignee: Josh Wills > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-2644.patch > > > If the yarn configuration does not explicitly specify a value for the > yarn.server.nodemanager.log.dir property, container allocation will fail on > the NodeManager w/an NPE when the LocalDirAllocator goes to create the temp > directory. In most of the code, we handle this by defaulting to /tmp/logs, > but we cannot do this in the LocalDirAllocator context, so we need to set the > default value explicitly in the Configuration. > Marking this as major b/c it's annoying to bump into it when you're getting > your first MRv2 cluster up and running. :) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
