Ravi Gummadi commented on MAPREDUCE-2804:
-----------------------------------------
MAPREDUCE-2415 distributed the userlogs on to multiple disks. Its
implementation relies on this symlink creation from attempt-directory of
(older) userlogs directory to attempt-directory on one of the multiple disks.
The design doc attached to MAPREDUCE-2415 can give more details.
> "Creation of symlink to attempt log dir failed." message is not useful

> In attempting to qualify the 204 RC2 release, my tasktracker logs are filled
