------------------------------------------

             Summary: Containers fail during creating a symlink which started 
with hyphen for a resource file
                 Key: YARN-8812
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-8812
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Oleksandr Shevchenko
            Assignee: Oleksandr Shevchenko


When we run some job and add a file with alias started with hyphen then a 
container fails during creating a symlink for a resource file:

{noformat}
yarn jar hadoop-mapreduce-examples.jar pi -files testfile#-symlink  1 1
{noformat}
or add a file to distributed cache in MR job by "job.addCacheFile"


Containers fail if resource file has a symlink started with hyphen with the 
following error:
{noformat}

Stack trace: ExitCodeException exitCode=1:

{noformat}

The main cause of the problem is "launch_container.sh" script whitch contain 
the following command for creating a symlink:
{noformat}
ln -sf "/tmp/hadoop-yarn/nm-local-dir/usercache/yarn/filecache/49/testfile" 
"-symlink"
{noformat}
As the result "-symlink" parse as "-s" flag but not as a symlink name.

The same job successfully passed when running on MRv1 but not on YARN since 
symlinks create in different ways. Unix systems support names which start with 
the hyphen.
