Jason Lowe commented on YARN-3476:
----------------------------------

bq. Such cases we can use the aggregated log-retention configuration i.e 
'yarn.log-aggregation.retain-seconds' for deleting from disk.

No, that's not going to be OK.  One is the lifetime on the aggregation 
filesystem and what we're considering is the lifetime on the local disk.  I can 
hold a lot more logs in HDFS than I can in the local disk.

> Nodemanager can fail to delete local logs if log aggregation fails

> If log aggregation encounters an error trying to upload the file then the 
> underlying TFile can throw an illegalstateexception which will bubble up 
> through the top of the thread and prevent the application logs from being 
> deleted.
