Found it.
You can pass in the jvm parameter log4j.configuration. The following works:
-Dlog4j.configuration=file:path/to/log4j.properties
It doesn't work without the file: prefix though. Tested in 1.6.0.

Subject: Specify log4j properties file
Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2016 17:57:00 +0000
Hello,Is it possible to provide a log4j properties file when submitting jobs to
a cluster? I know that by default spark looks for a log4j.properties file in
the conf directory. I'm looking for a way to specify a different
log4j.properties file (external to the application) without pointing to a
completely different conf directory. Is there a way to achieve this?
Thanks,Ashic.
