Alejandro Abdelnur commented on MAPREDUCE-5641:
-----------------------------------------------

[~rkanter], [~jlowe], how about not touching the current permissions of stating 
and making the RM a proxy user in HDFS. Then the files would be written as the 
user.

[~vinodkv], I'm a bit reluctant to get the JHS to depend on the AHS at this 
point as the AHS is not fully cooked. I would prefer dropping the JHS 
alltogether in favor of the AHS when  the AHS is ready for prime time with AM 
extensions.

> Currently, the JHS has no information about jobs whose AMs have failed.  This 
> is because the History is written by the AM to the intermediate folder just 
> before finishing, so when it fails for any reason, this information isn't 
> copied there.  However, it is not lost as its in the AM's staging directory.  
> To make the History available in the JHS, all we need to do is have another 
> mechanism to move the History from the staging directory to the intermediate 
> directory.  The AM also writes a "Summary" file before exiting normally, 
> which is also unavailable when the AM fails.
