How to change the HADOOP log files location

I'm running a hadoop process, which take couple of hours and lots of space, and the process stops because there is not much space. The Hadoop tmp folder has huge space remaining so I think it is the problem with the Hadoop_log_files dir, as I've checked and there is not much space there. So could anyone please advise how to change the hadoop log file location to be in another location instead of /home/hduser/hadoop/logs without having to change the whole location of the hadoop setup. I'd be very thankful for any assistance.

I found a property in the hadoop-env.sh:

# Where log files are stored.  $HADOOP_HOME/logs by default.
# export HADOOP_LOG_DIR=${HADOOP_HOME}/logs

I changed it to export newlocation/logs and this solved the problem :)
