Hi Terry, If you click on any role, then the processes tab, you can see the stderr and stdout for that process. This is usually the easiest way to see stderr / stdout. These are never located in /var/log/ on the machine (that is where role logs usually go). stderr and stdout are in /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process/<directory corresponding to your command or process>/logs/ Thanks, Darren ...

Hi Jan, Good question. I was talking about deploying client configuration, which will update symlinks for /etc/hadoop/conf (which is where the container executor lives). Deploy Kerberos client configuration will just update /etc/krb5.conf. If that looks fine, no need to run it. It's important to run the deploy client configuration command before starting / restarting YARN because the symlinks need to be correct before starting YARN. Issues with the symlinks mostly come up when adding new hosts or changing from MR to YARN, since in these cases /etc/hadoop/conf might not be a symlink to the YARN client configuration. Once you start YARN, on each host with a NodeManager you should see /etc/hadoop/conf/container-executor.cfg get created. Thanks, Darren ... View more

Did you try deploying client configuration, then restarting the node managers? The container executor interacts with a weird way with alternatives and process restarts. Deployiing CC followed by YARN restart clears up these issues, if they're the cause. ... View more
