SPARK-1252. On YARN, use container-log4j.properties for executors container-log4j.properties is a file that YARN provides so that containers can have log4j.properties distinct from that of the NodeManagers. Logs now go to syslog, and stderr and stdout just have the process's standard err and standard out. I tested this on pseudo-distributed clusters for both yarn (Hadoop 2.2) and yarn-alpha (Hadoop 0.23.7)/ You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/sryza/spark sandy-spark-1252 Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/148.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #148 ---- commit fa5bdf12eeb7ee4866985a8663b70aa3605e6d6c Author: Sandy Ryza <sa...@cloudera.com> Date: 2014-03-14T23:11:03Z SPARK-1252.
