Description

The YARN resourcemanager's address is included in four different configs: yarn.resourcemanager.scheduler.address, yarn.resourcemanager.resource-tracker.address, yarn.resourcemanager.address, and yarn.resourcemanager.admin.address

A new user trying to configure a cluster needs to know the names of all these four configs.

The same issue exists for nodemanagers.

It would be much easier if they could simply specify yarn.resourcemanager.hostname and yarn.nodemanager.hostname and default ports for the other ones would kick in.
