yarn@BLR1000002525:~/test/install/hadoop/resourcemanager/bin> ./yarn logs --applicationId application_1445832014581_0028 -am ALL
Can not get AMContainers logs for the application:application_1445832014581_0028
This application:application_1445832014581_0028 is finished. Please enable the application history service. Or Using yarn logs -applicationId <appId> -containerId <containerId> --nodeAddress <nodeHttpAddress> to get the container logs
{noformat}

The command mentioned above is  {{yarn logs -applicationId <appId> -containerId <containerId> --nodeAddress <nodeHttpAddress>}}. It asks you to specify nodeHttpAddress which makes it sound like we have to connect to Node's http port which may confuse user to think that we have to connect to nodemanager's webapp address.

This command should be changed to {{yarn logs -applicationId <appId> -containerId <containerId> --nodeAddress <Node Address>}}
