> The yarn logs command is among the most common ways to troubleshoot yarn app failures, especially by an admin.
> Currently if you run the command as a user different from the job owner, the command will fail with a subtle message that it could not find the app under the running user's name. This can be confusing especially to new admins.
> We can figure out the job owner from the app report returned by the RM or the AHS, or, by looking for the app directory using a glob pattern, so in most cases this error can be avoided.
> Question - are there scenarios where users will still need to specify the -appOwner option?
