Github user tgravescs commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/969#issuecomment-46324012 Sorry if I wan't clear. I didn't mean to update ClientArguments with that logic, I just meant that is the logic we want overall. We don't want to duplicate code if possible. Overall I think if the --files/--archives are specified to ClientArguments we don't touch them. If they aren't specified we look at the config variables and resolveURI them. Then we need to modify the YarnClientSchedulerBackend to properly handle when spark.yarn.dist.archives/spark.yarn.dist.files configs are set (but not set by spark-submit script) (it should default to file://, not hdfs://).
