Description

Some improvements/good_to_have features in logcondense

• logcondense currently doesn't give us a way to purge jobtracker/namenode logs, admins might want to have something like this, thought it might be used only rarely.
• Currently when purging logs, it does dfs deletes per cluster specific directly, these deletes could be batched to reduce load on and round trips to namenode.
• logcondense could take hadoop package (-p, --package) from HADOOP_HOME env var, and hadoop config (-c, --config) from HADOOP_CONF_DIR.
