Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on YARN-2942:
-----------------------------------------------

That will definitely simplify things a lot more IMO, we will no longer need a 
ZK dependency on core of YARN (outside if HA).

> Aggregated Log Files should be combined

> Turning on log aggregation allows users to easily store container logs in 
> HDFS and subsequently view them in the YARN web UIs from a central place.  
> Currently, there is a separate log file for each Node Manager.  This can be a 
> problem for HDFS if you have a cluster with many nodes as you’ll slowly start 
> accumulating many (possibly small) files per YARN application.  The current 
> “solution” for this problem is to configure YARN (actually the JHS) to 
> automatically delete these files after some amount of time.  
> We should improve this by compacting the per-node aggregated log files into 
> one log file per application.
