Sandy Ryza commented on MAPREDUCE-5403:
---------------------------------------
I don't think yarn.resourcemanager.address should be an environment variable.
I think there is a conceptual difference between a client knowing how to
contact a service and a client knowing about details of the service's
internals. Do you disagree?
In an ideal world, I think should be able to point my application at a YARN
cluster without thinking about where the YARN jars were installed. I
understand that for MR we will still not entirely have achieved this ideal,
because the client still needs to know where the MR jars are. But the change
would be a step in the right direction and help lay the groundwork for a
solution by untangling the application from the framework.

> yarn.application.classpath is a confusing property because it is used by
> MapReduce and not YARN, and MapReduce already has
> mapreduce.application.classpath, which provides the same functionality.
