Timeline Server doesn't store container finished container information

[#1]

Hello my Yarn Timeline Server is not storing container information after the container is finished.

Is there any way to enable this?

[bigdata@localhost ]$ yarn container -status container_e23_1472544604028_1380_01_000023
16/09/15 14:51:15 INFO impl.TimelineClientImpl: Timeline service address: http://localhost:8188/ws/v1/timeline/
16/09/15 14:51:16 INFO client.RMProxy: Connecting to ResourceManager at localhost/10.3.237.18:8050
Container with id 'container_e23_1472544604028_1380_01_000023' doesn't exist in RM or Timeline Server.

Thank you in advance.

From this apache jira - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3978, we can see that they have configuration option to turn off saving of non-AM container metadata. In order to have non-AM container details, we need to set "yarn.timeline-service.generic-application-history.save-non-am-container-meta-info" and "yarn.timeline-service.generic-application-history.enabled" to TRUE and restart RM and ATS.
