> Specify worker log dir separately from scratch space dir

>                 Key: SPARK-14641
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14641
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Wish
>         Environment: Spark standalone on Univa Grid Engine
>            Reporter: Philipp Hanslovsky
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: bulk-closed, log, spark
>
> According to
> http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/spark-standalone.html#monitoring-and-logging
> SPARK_WORKER_DIR      Directory to run applications in, which will include 
> both logs and scratch space (default: SPARK_HOME/work).
> Spark scratch space and log files share the same directory. In our univa grid 
> engine cluster configuration, we set SPARK_WORKER_DIR=/scratch/spark/work 
> (local drive for each slave) and clean-up SPARK_WORKER_DIR on tear-down of 
> the job to make sure there will be enough space on the drive for subsequent 
> Spark jobs, i.e. regardless of success or fail, all files will be removed.
> For the purpose of debugging, I would like to access the slave log files 
> after tear-down. For that purpose, writing the log files into a location 
> different from scratch space, e.g. nfs $HOME, would allow me to keep the log 
> files after tear-down while scratch space could still be cleared.
> Is it possible to specify the log dir separately from the scratch space dir? 
> If it doesn't exist yet, I could imagine something like:
> SPARK_WORKER_LOG_DIR  - directory for slave logs (default: SPARK_WORKER_DIR)
> A (temporary) workaround would be to set SPARK_WORKER_DIR=$HOME, which in 
> this case would be on a network file system instead of locally on the slaves. 
> Do you think, performance would suffer from having non-local scratch space.
