Diane Feddema commented on MAPREDUCE-5661:
------------------------------------------
The description for mapreduce.cluster.local.dir (below) is misleading and could
be improved by saying it is NOT a replacement for deprecated property
mapred.local.dir.
Unfortunatley, Link
http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.3.0/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/DeprecatedProperties.html
lists mapreduce.cluster.local.dir as the replacement for mapred.local.dir.
Instead it should explain intermediate files will be written
to yarn.nodemanager.local-dirs.
<property>
<name>mapreduce.cluster.local.dir</name>
<value>${hadoop.tmp.dir}/mapred/local</value>
<description>
The local directory where MapReduce stores intermediate
data files. May be a comma-separated list of
directories on different devices in order to spread disk i/o.
Directories that do not exist are ignored.

> This inconsistency feels like something that is likely to confuse admins.
