Naganarasimha G R commented on YARN-4183:
-----------------------------------------
Oops, Missed this comment [~sjlee0],
Documentation gives a fair idea and its same as per my understanding,
*yarn.timeline-service.enabled* : Indicate to clients whether timeline service
is enabled or not. If enabled, clients will put entities and events to the
timeline server.
*yarn.timeline-service.generic-application-history.enabled* : Indicate to
clients whether to query generic application data from timeline history-service
or not. If not enabled then application data is queried only from Resource
Manager. Defaults to false. (which is currently not there in documentation but
present in TimelineServer.MD)
*yarn.resourcemanager.system-metrics-publisher.enabled* : The setting that
controls whether yarn system metrics is published on the timeline server or not
by RM. (This requires yarn.timeline-service.enabled to be enabled which
requires a doc update).
AHS on timelinestore is started if started if
"YarnConfiguration.APPLICATION_HISTORY_STORE" is not configured.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-4183
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.7.1
> Reporter: Mit Desai
> Assignee: Mit Desai
> Fix For: 3.0.0, 2.8.0, 2.7.2
>
> Attachments: YARN-4183.1.patch
>
>
> When enabling just the Generic History Server and not the timeline server,
> the system metrics publisher will not publish the events to the timeline
> store as it checks if the timeline server and system metrics publisher are
> enabled before creating a timeline client.
> To make it work, if the timeline service flag is turned on, it will force
> every yarn application to get a delegation token.
> Instead of checking if timeline service is enabled, we should be checking if
> application history server is enabled.
