Hi, AFAIK, the characteristic of the parameter mapred.system.dir is not conducive to be modified per job.It must be modified on mapred-default.xml, conf/mapred-site.xml. So why local, I don't recall passing it on non-local mode either, and if passed I don't think it should work, as its final. The parameters passed on command line usually pertain to the job performance/memory needs of the specific job.Makes sense?
