Harsh J commented on MAPREDUCE-4481: ------------------------------------ I could not reproduce this on 1.0.3. I restarted the TT, re-initialized it (via JT restart), but the MR local directory userlogs/ still exist and continue to be symlinked inside the logs dir (and nowhere in code can I find a full clean delete of TaskLog.USERLOGS_DIR_NAME presently). Can you post some reproduce steps for this? > User Log Retention across TT restarts > ------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4481 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4481 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: tasktracker > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: Benoy Antony > Assignee: Benoy Antony > Priority: Minor > > The tasktrackers cleanup the userlog directory when they restart. > This happens independent of value of mapred.userlog.retain.hours. > The feature is to add a configurable feature to respect > mapred.userlog.retain.hours across TT restarts -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
