----------------------------

             Summary: Change mapreduce.jobhistory.done-dir by command line arg seems not working
                 Key: YARN-1862
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1862
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: Hadoop 2.2.0-cdh5.0.0-beta-2
            Reporter: Ruirui
            Priority: Minor


Basically my requirement is to store the job history file in a customized directory and maybe history files for job1 in dir1 and job2 in dir2 in YARN. But although I changed "mapreduce.jobhistory.done-dir"  as command arg and run with the user "mapred" to eliminate permission concerns, the history files are still generated in the default directory but not in the directory I specified. 

However if I specify "mapreduce.jobhistory.intermediate-done-dir" in the command line, it places files in expected directory, only that it is deleted shortly after the job completion thus not possible for me to get data from the files.

I searched the Internet and couldn't find any suggestions about this. I am not sure if it comes from any misconfiguration and I'm not sure if this is the way to ask for help. Would you please give me a hand? Thank you.
