In Cloudera Manager, select the YARN service.
Click the Configuration tab.
Select the Log Aggregation filter under Category.
Every log aggregation related property is displayed.
Find the Enable Log Aggregation property and ensure that it is selected, meaning that log aggregation is enabled.
Configure the log aggregation properties as applicable.
