Rong Rong commented on FLINK-15447:
-----------------------------------

Thanks [~victor-wong] for the explanation. I think I understood the problem 
much better now.

This is definitely a good question to address, one suggestion I have is: can we 
put the goal / intent in the description. I think based on the discussion the 
summary of this Jira can be :

Title: To improve utilization of the `java.io.tmpdir` for YARN module

Description: To achieve:
_1) Tasks can utilize all disks when using tmp_
_2) Any undeleted tmp files will be deleted by the tasktracker when task(job?) 
is done._

utilizing a fully flexible {{$PWD/tmp}} path is one of the solution but it also 
run into issues that [~fly_in_gis] mentions as {{$PWD}} can be anything.

One thing I can think of is instead of letting user customize $PWD, we preset 
the location of {{tmpdir}} to be relative to the YARN container dir root, 
something like {{$CLUSTER_CONTAINER_DEFAULT_DIR_ROOT/$PWD_USER_DEFINE}}?? what 
do you guys think?

>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Deployment / YARN
>    Affects Versions: 1.9.1
>            Reporter: Victor Wong
>            Priority: Major
>
> Currently, when running Flink on Yarn, the "java.io.tmpdir" property is set 
> to the default value, which is "/tmp". 
>  
> Sometimes we ran into exceptions caused by a full "/tmp" directory, which 
> would not be cleaned automatically after applications finished.
> I think we can set "java.io.tmpdir" to "{{{{PWD}}}}/tmp" directory, or 
> something similar. "{{{{PWD}}}}" will be replaced with the true working 
> directory of JM/TM by Yarn, which will be cleaned automatically.
