Step1: CM -> Yarn -> Configuration -> Search for the below two parameters
JobHistory Server Maximum Log File Backups : <Default value: 10>
JobHistory Server Max Log Size : <Default Value: 200 MiB>

Step2: CM -> Yarn -> Instances -> Get the hostname for JobHistory Server

Step3: Login to the above host and go to the path /var/log/hadoop-mapreduce
Note: If you have 10 history file + one current file and each file size is 201M, then you are good. It is automatically purging & you don't need to purge anything

Thanks

You can get the parameters mentioned in step 1 & 2 from yarn-site.xml

and follow the step3: go to the path /var/log/hadoop-mapreduce
Note: If you have 10 history file + one current file and each file size is 201M, then you are good. It is automatically purging & you don't need to purge anything
