Robert Kanter commented on YARN-8922:
-------------------------------------

I've tested running {{test-container-executor}} followed by {{cetest}} with all 
4 possible ways of running {{test-container-executor}}.

> YARN-8448 attempted to fix the {{test-container-executor}} C test to be able 
> to run as root.  The test claims that it should be possible to run as root; 
> in fact, there are some tests that only run if you use root.  
> One of the fixes was to change the permissions of the test's config dir to 
> 0777 from 0755.  The problem was that the directory was owned by root, but 
> then other users would need to write files/directories under it, which would 
> fail with 0755.  YARN-8448 fixed this by making it 0777.  However, this 
> breaks running cetest because it expects the directory to be 0755, and it's 
> run afterwards.
> The proper fix for all this is to leave the directory at 0755, but to make 
> sure it's owned by the "nodemanager" user.  Confusingly, in 
> {{test-container-executor}}, that appears to be the {{username}} and not the 
> {{yarn_username}} (i.e. {{username}} is the user running the NM while 
> {{yarn_username}} is just some user running a Yarn app).
