Thomas Graves commented on SPARK-10971:
---------------------------------------

you shouldn't have to install everything a user needs on the YARN nodes.   This 
can cause many different types of issues, the main one being version conflicts 
and a Maintenance head ache.   The only downside to that is if you aren't using 
the distributed cache properly there is overhead in downloading that.  Perhaps 
there are distributions that don't recommend or cases you want it installed for 
performance reasons but a general use YARN cluster needs to allow users to send 
their dependencies with their applications.

So yes I am just suggesting the path to Rscript be configurable.  You should be 
able to set a config like spark.sparkr.r.command to point to where Rscript is 
located.

> I'm running spark on yarn and trying to use R in cluster mode. RRunner seems 
> to just call Rscript and assumes its in the path. But on our YARN deployment 
> R isn't installed on the nodes so it needs to be distributed along with the 
> job and we need the ability to point to where it gets installed. sparkR in 
> client mode has the config spark.sparkr.r.command to point to Rscript. 
> RRunner should have something similar so it works in cluster mode
