Robert Kanter commented on YARN-2942:
-------------------------------------
I've been playing around with the LogAggregationStatus stuff and I think we
should be able to build on top of it. I'm working on a new design document
that I'll hopefully post sometime early next week.
> Aggregated Log Files should be combined

> Turning on log aggregation allows users to easily store container logs in
> HDFS and subsequently view them in the YARN web UIs from a central place.
> Currently, there is a separate log file for each Node Manager. This can be a
> problem for HDFS if you have a cluster with many nodes as you’ll slowly start
> accumulating many (possibly small) files per YARN application. The current
> “solution” for this problem is to configure YARN (actually the JHS) to
> automatically delete these files after some amount of time.
> We should improve this by compacting the per-node aggregated log files into
> one log file per application.
