Hadoop Authentication - issues a signed HTTP Cookie once the client has authenticated successfully. - This HTTP Cookie has an expiration time, after which it will trigger a new - authentication sequence. This is done to avoid triggering the authentication - on every HTTP request of a client. - - A KMS instance must verify the HTTP Cookie signatures signed by other KMS - instances.

For Kerberos SPNEGO authentication, the hostname of the URL is used to construct the Kerberos service name of the server, `HTTP/#HOSTNAME#`. This means that all KMS instances must have a Kerberos service name with the load-balancer or VIP hostname. + +In order to be able to access directly a specific KMS instance, the KMS instance must also have Keberos service name with its own hostname. This is required for monitoring and admin purposes. + +Both Kerberos service principal credentials (for the load-balancer/VIP hostname and for the actual KMS instance hostname) must be in the keytab file configured for authentication. And the principal name specified in the configuration must be '\*'. For example: + +```xml + + hadoop.kms.authentication.kerberos.principal + * + +``` + +**NOTE:** If using HTTPS, the SSL certificate used by the KMS instance must be configured to support multiple hostnames (see Java 7 `keytool` SAN extension support for details on how to do this). + +$H4 HTTP Authentication Signature + +KMS uses Hadoop Authentication for HTTP authentication. Hadoop Authentication issues a signed HTTP Cookie once the client has authenticated successfully. This HTTP Cookie has an expiration time, after which it will trigger a new authentication sequence.

It stores - arbitrary binary objects by name in a . - - The Hadoop Swift filesystem library adds another concept, the , which - defines which Swift blobstore hosts a container -and how to connect to it. - -** Containers and Objects - - * Containers are created by users with accounts on the Swift filestore, and hold - . - - * Objects can be zero bytes long, or they can contain data. - - * Objects in the container can be up to 5GB; there is a special support for - larger files than this, which merges multiple objects in to one. - - * Each object is referenced by it's ; there is no notion of directories. - - * You can use any characters in an object name that can be 'URL-encoded'; the - maximum length of a name is 1034 characters -after URL encoding. - - * Names can have <<>> characters in them, which are used to create the illusion of - a directory structure. For example <<>>. Even though this looks - like a directory, . There is no requirement to have - any entries in the container called <<>> or <<>> - - * That said. if the container has zero-byte objects that look like directory - names above other objects, they can pretend to be directories. Continuing the - example, a 0-byte object called <<>> would tell clients that it is a - directory while <<>> or <<>> were present. This creates an - illusion of containers holding a filesystem. - - Client applications talk to Swift over HTTP or HTTPS, reading, writing and - deleting objects using standard HTTP operations (GET, PUT and DELETE, - respectively). There is also a COPY operation, that creates a new object in the - container, with a new name, containing the old data. There is no rename - operation itself, objects need to be copied -then the original entry deleted. - -** Eventual Consistency - - The Swift Filesystem is *eventually consistent*: an operation on an object may - not be immediately visible to that client, or other clients. This is a - consequence of the goal of the filesystem: to span a set of machines, across - multiple datacenters, in such a way that the data can still be available when - many of them fail. (In contrast, the Hadoop HDFS filesystem is *immediately - consistent*, but it does not span datacenters.) - - Eventual consistency can cause surprises for client applications that expect - immediate consistency: after an object is deleted or overwritten, the object - may still be visible -or the old data still retrievable. The Swift Filesystem - client for Apache Hadoop attempts to handle this, in conjunction with the - MapReduce engine, but there may be still be occasions when eventual consistency - causes surprises. - -** Non-atomic "directory" operations. - - Hadoop expects some - operations to be atomic, especially <<>>, which is something - the MapReduce layer relies on to commit the output of a job, renaming data - from a temp directory to the final path. Because a rename - is implemented as a copy of every blob under the directory's path, followed - by a delete of the originals, the intermediate state of the operation - will be visible to other clients. If two Reducer tasks to rename their temp - directory to the final path, both operations may succeed, with the result that - output directory contains mixed data. This can happen if MapReduce jobs - are being run with enabled and Swift used as the direct output - of the MR job (it can also happen against Amazon S3). - - Other consequences of the non-atomic operations are: - - 1. If a program is looking for the presence of the directory before acting - on the data -it may start prematurely. This can be avoided by using - other mechanisms to co-ordinate the programs, such as the presence of a file - that is written any bulk directory operations. - - 2. A <<>> or <<>> operation may include files added under - the source directory tree during the operation, may unintentionally delete - it, or delete the 0-byte swift entries that mimic directories and act - as parents for the files. Try to avoid doing this. - - The best ways to avoid all these problems is not using Swift as - the filesystem between MapReduce jobs or other Hadoop workflows. It - can act as a source of data, and a final destination, but it doesn't meet - all of Hadoop's expectations of what a filesystem is -it's a . - -* Working with Swift Object Stores in Hadoop - - Once installed, the Swift FileSystem client can be used by any Hadoop application - to read from or write to data stored in a Swift container. - - Data stored in Swift can be used as the direct input to a MapReduce job - -simply use the <<>> URL (see below) to declare the source of the data. - - This Swift Filesystem client is designed to work with multiple - Swift object stores, both public and private. This allows the client to work - with different clusters, reading and writing data to and from either of them. - - It can also work with the same object stores using multiple login details. - - These features are achieved by one basic concept: using a service name in - the URI referring to a swift filesystem, and looking up all the connection and - login details for that specific service. Different service names can be defined - in the Hadoop XML configuration file, so defining different clusters, or - providing different login details for the same object store(s). - - -** Swift Filesystem URIs - - Hadoop uses URIs to refer to files within a filesystem.

It offers infrastructure services such as VM hosting (Nova), authentication (Keystone) and storage of binary objects (Swift). + +This module enables Apache Hadoop applications -including MapReduce jobs, read and write data to and from instances of the [OpenStack Swift object store](http://www.openstack.org/software/openstack-storage/). + +Features +-------- + +* Read and write of data stored in a Swift object store + +* Support of a pseudo-hierachical file system (directories, subdirectories and + files) + +* Standard filesystem operations: `create`, `delete`, `mkdir`, + `ls`, `mv`, `stat`. + +* Can act as a source of data in a MapReduce job, or a sink. + +* Support for multiple OpenStack services, and multiple containers from a + single service. + +* Supports in-cluster and remote access to Swift data. + +* Supports OpenStack Keystone authentication with password or token. + +* Released under the Apache Software License + +* Tested against the Hadoop 3.x and 1.x branches, against multiple public + OpenStack clusters: Rackspace US, Rackspace UK, HP Cloud. + +* Tested against private OpenStack clusters, including scalability tests of + large file uploads. + +Using the Hadoop Swift Filesystem Client +---------------------------------------- + +### Concepts: services and containers + +OpenStack swift is an *Object Store*; also known as a *blobstore*. It stores arbitrary binary objects by name in a *container*. + +The Hadoop Swift filesystem library adds another concept, the *service*, which defines which Swift blobstore hosts a container -and how to connect to it. + +### Containers and Objects + +* Containers are created by users with accounts on the Swift filestore, and hold + *objects*. + +* Objects can be zero bytes long, or they can contain data. + +* Objects in the container can be up to 5GB; there is a special support for + larger files than this, which merges multiple objects in to one. + +* Each object is referenced by it's *name*; there is no notion of directories. + +* You can use any characters in an object name that can be 'URL-encoded'; the + maximum length of a name is 1034 characters -after URL encoding. + +* Names can have `/` characters in them, which are used to create the illusion of + a directory structure. For example `dir/dir2/name`. Even though this looks + like a directory, *it is still just a name*. There is no requirement to have + any entries in the container called `dir` or `dir/dir2` + +* That said. if the container has zero-byte objects that look like directory + names above other objects, they can pretend to be directories. Continuing the + example, a 0-byte object called `dir` would tell clients that it is a + directory while `dir/dir2` or `dir/dir2/name` were present. This creates an + illusion of containers holding a filesystem. + +Client applications talk to Swift over HTTP or HTTPS, reading, writing and deleting objects using standard HTTP operations (GET, PUT and DELETE, respectively). There is also a COPY operation, that creates a new object in the container, with a new name, containing the old data. There is no rename operation itself, objects need to be copied -then the original entry deleted. + +### Eventual Consistency + +The Swift Filesystem is \*eventually consistent\*: an operation on an object may not be immediately visible to that client, or other clients. This is a consequence of the goal of the filesystem: to span a set of machines, across multiple datacenters, in such a way that the data can still be available when many of them fail. (In contrast, the Hadoop HDFS filesystem is \*immediately consistent\*, but it does not span datacenters.) + +Eventual consistency can cause surprises for client applications that expect immediate consistency: after an object is deleted or overwritten, the object may still be visible -or the old data still retrievable. The Swift Filesystem client for Apache Hadoop attempts to handle this, in conjunction with the MapReduce engine, but there may be still be occasions when eventual consistency causes surprises. + +### Non-atomic "directory" operations. + +Hadoop expects some operations to be atomic, especially `rename()`, which is something the MapReduce layer relies on to commit the output of a job, renaming data from a temp directory to the final path. Because a rename is implemented as a copy of every blob under the directory's path, followed by a delete of the originals, the intermediate state of the operation will be visible to other clients. If two Reducer tasks to rename their temp directory to the final path, both operations may succeed, with the result that output directory contains mixed data. This can happen if MapReduce jobs are being run with *speculation* enabled and Swift used as the direct output of the MR job (it can also happen against Amazon S3). + +Other consequences of the non-atomic operations are: + +1. If a program is looking for the presence of the directory before acting + on the data -it may start prematurely. This can be avoided by using + other mechanisms to co-ordinate the programs, such as the presence of a file + that is written *after* any bulk directory operations. + +2. A `rename()` or `delete()` operation may include files added under + the source directory tree during the operation, may unintentionally delete + it, or delete the 0-byte swift entries that mimic directories and act + as parents for the files. Try to avoid doing this. + +The best ways to avoid all these problems is not using Swift as the filesystem between MapReduce jobs or other Hadoop workflows. It can act as a source of data, and a final destination, but it doesn't meet all of Hadoop's expectations of what a filesystem is -it's a *blobstore*. + +Working with Swift Object Stores in Hadoop +------------------------------------------ + +Once installed, the Swift FileSystem client can be used by any Hadoop application to read from or write to data stored in a Swift container. + +Data stored in Swift can be used as the direct input to a MapReduce job -simply use the `swift:` URL (see below) to declare the source of the data. + +This Swift Filesystem client is designed to work with multiple Swift object stores, both public and private. This allows the client to work with different clusters, reading and writing data to and from either of them. + +It can also work with the same object stores using multiple login details. + +These features are achieved by one basic concept: using a service name in the URI referring to a swift filesystem, and looking up all the connection and login details for that specific service. Different service names can be defined in the Hadoop XML configuration file, so defining different clusters, or providing different login details for the same object store(s). + +### Swift Filesystem URIs + +Hadoop uses URIs to refer to files within a filesystem. Some common examples are: + + local://etc/hosts + hdfs://cluster1/users/example/data/set1 + hdfs://cluster2.example.org:8020/users/example/data/set1 + +The Swift Filesystem Client adds a new URL type `swift`. In a Swift Filesystem URL, the hostname part of a URL identifies the container and the service to work with; the path the name of the object. Here are some examples + + swift://container.rackspace/my-object.csv + swift://data.hpcloud/data/set1 + swift://dmitry.privatecloud/out/results + +In the last two examples, the paths look like directories: it is not, they are simply the objects named `data/set1` and `out/results` respectively. + +### Installing + +The `hadoop-openstack` JAR must be on the classpath of the Hadoop program trying to talk to the Swift service. If installed in the classpath of the Hadoop MapReduce service, then all programs started by the MR engine will pick up the JAR automatically. This is the easiest way to give all Hadoop jobs access to Swift. + +Alternatively, the JAR can be included as one of the JAR files that an application uses. This lets the Hadoop jobs work with a Swift object store even if the Hadoop cluster is not pre-configured for this. + +The library also depends upon the Apache HttpComponents library, which must also be on the classpath. + +### Configuring + +To talk to a swift service, the user must must provide: + +1. The URL defining the container and the service. + +2. In the cluster/job configuration, the login details of that service. + +Multiple service definitions can co-exist in the same configuration file: just use different names for them. + +#### Example: Rackspace US, in-cluster access using API key + +This service definition is for use in a Hadoop cluster deployed within Rackspace's US infrastructure. + + + fs.swift.service.rackspace.auth.url + https://auth.api.rackspacecloud.com/v2.0/tokens + Rackspace US (multiregion) + + + + fs.swift.service.rackspace.username + user4 + + + + fs.swift.service.rackspace.region + DFW + + + + fs.swift.service.rackspace.apikey + fe806aa86dfffe2f6ed8 + + +Here the API key visible in the account settings API keys page is used to log in.

A longer timeout is more resilient to network problems -and may be needed when talking to remote filesystems. + +#### Connection Retry Count fs.swift.connect.retry.count + +This sets the number of times to try to connect to a service whenever an HTTP request is made. + + + fs.swift.connect.retry.count + 3 + + +The more retries, the more resilient it is to transient outages -and the less rapid it is at detecting and reporting server connectivity problems. + +#### Connection Throttle Delay fs.swift.connect.throttle.delay + +This property adds a delay between bulk file copy and delete operations, to prevent requests being throttled or blocked by the remote service + + + fs.swift.connect.throttle.delay + 0 + + +It is measured in milliseconds; "0" means do not add any delay. + +Throttling is enabled on the public endpoints of some Swift services. If `rename()` or `delete()` operations fail with `SwiftThrottledRequestException` exceptions, try setting this property. + +#### HTTP Proxy + +If the client can only access the Swift filesystem via a web proxy server, the client configuration must specify the proxy via the `fs.swift.connect.proxy.host` and `fs.swift.connect.proxy.port` properties. + + + fs.swift.proxy.host + web-proxy + + + + fs.swift.proxy.port + 8088 + + +If the host is declared, the proxy port must be set to a valid integer value. + +### Troubleshooting + +#### ClassNotFoundException + +The `hadoop-openstack` JAR -or any dependencies- may not be on your classpath. + +If it is a remote MapReduce job that is failing, make sure that the JAR is installed on the servers in the cluster -or that the job submission process uploads the JAR file to the distributed cache. + +#### Failure to Authenticate + +A `SwiftAuthenticationFailedException` is thrown when the client cannot authenticate with the OpenStack keystone server. This could be because the URL in the service definition is wrong, or because the supplied credentials are invalid. + +1. Check the authentication URL through `curl` or your browser + +2. Use a Swift client such as CyberDuck to validate your credentials + +3. If you have included a tenant ID, try leaving it out. Similarly, + try adding it if you had not included it. + +4. Try switching from API key authentication to password-based authentication, + by setting the password. + +5. Change your credentials. As with Amazon AWS clients, some credentials + don't seem to like going over the network. + +#### Timeout connecting to the Swift Service + +This happens if the client application is running outside an OpenStack cluster, where it does not have access to the private hostname/IP address for filesystem operations. Set the `public` flag to true -but remember to set it to false for use in-cluster. + +### Warnings + +1. Do not share your login details with anyone, which means do not log the + details, or check the XML configuration files into any revision control system + to which you do not have exclusive access. + +2. Similarly, do not use your real account details in any + documentation \*or any bug reports submitted online\* + +3. Prefer the apikey authentication over passwords as it is easier + to revoke a key -and some service providers allow you to set + an automatic expiry date on a key when issued. + +4. Do not use the public service endpoint from within a public OpenStack + cluster, as it will run up large bills. + +5. Remember: it's not a real filesystem or hierarchical directory structure. + Some operations (directory rename and delete) take time and are not atomic or + isolated from other operations taking place. + +6. Append is not supported. + +7. Unix-style permissions are not supported. All accounts with write access to + a repository have unlimited access; the same goes for those with read access. + +8. In the public clouds, do not make the containers public unless you are happy + with anyone reading your data, and are prepared to pay the costs of their + downloads. + +### Limits + +* Maximum length of an object path: 1024 characters + +* Maximum size of a binary object: no absolute limit. Files \> 5GB are + partitioned into separate files in the native filesystem, and merged during + retrieval. *Warning:* the partitioned/large file support is the + most complex part of the Hadoop/Swift FS integration, and, along with + authentication, the most troublesome to support. + +### Testing the hadoop-openstack module + +The `hadoop-openstack` can be remotely tested against any public or private cloud infrastructure which supports the OpenStack Keystone authentication mechanism. It can also be tested against private OpenStack clusters. OpenStack Development teams are strongly encouraged to test the Hadoop swift filesystem client against any version of Swift that they are developing or deploying, to stress their cluster and to identify bugs early. + +The module comes with a large suite of JUnit tests -tests that are only executed if the source tree includes credentials to test against a specific cluster. + +After checking out the Hadoop source tree, create the file: + + hadoop-tools/hadoop-openstack/src/test/resources/auth-keys.xml + +Into this file, insert the credentials needed to bond to the test filesystem, as decribed above. + +Next set the property `test.fs.swift.name` to the URL of a swift container to test against. The tests expect exclusive access to this container -do not keep any other data on it, or expect it to be preserved. + + + test.fs.swift.name + swift://test.myswift/ + + +In the base hadoop directory, run: + + mvn clean install -DskipTests + +This builds a set of Hadoop JARs consistent with the `hadoop-openstack` module that is about to be tested. + +In the `hadoop-tools/hadoop-openstack` directory run + + mvn test -Dtest=TestSwiftRestClient + +This runs some simple tests which include authenticating against the remote swift service. If these tests fail, so will all the rest. If it does fail: check your authentication. + +Once this test succeeds, you can run the full test suite + + mvn test + +Be advised that these tests can take an hour or more, especially against a remote Swift service -or one that throttles bulk operations. + +Once the `auth-keys.xml` file is in place, the `mvn test` runs from the Hadoop source base directory will automatically run these OpenStack tests While this ensures that no regressions have occurred, it can also add significant time to test runs, and may run up bills, depending on who is providingthe Swift storage service. We recommend having a separate source tree set up purely for the Swift tests, and running it manually or by the CI tooling at a lower frequency than normal test runs. + +Finally: Apache Hadoop is an open source project. Contributions of code -including more tests- are very welcome. diff --git a/hadoop-tools/hadoop-openstack/src/site/resources/css/site.css b/hadoop-tools/hadoop-openstack/src/site/resources/css/site.css new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..f830baafa8 --- /dev/null +++ b/hadoop-tools/hadoop-openstack/src/site/resources/css/site.css @@ -0,0 +1,30 @@ +/* +* Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one or more +* contributor license agreements.

By default, the simulator will use the + topology fetched from the input json files. Users can specifies a new topology + by setting this parameter. Refer to the appendix for the topology file format. + +* `--track-jobs`: The particular jobs that will be tracked during + simulator running, spearated by comma. + +* `--print-simulation`: Whether to print out simulation information + before simulator running, including number of nodes, applications, tasks, + and information for each application. + + In comparison to rumen format, here the sls format is much simpler and users + can easily generate various workload. The simulator also provides a tool to + convert rumen traces to sls traces. + + $ bin/rumen2sls.sh + --rumen-file= + --output-dir= + [--output-prefix=] + +* `--rumen-file`: The rumen format file.

The default value + is "sls", and the two generated files are `sls-jobs.json` and + `sls-nodes.json`. + +Metrics +------- + +The Yarn Scheduler Load Simulator has integrated [Metrics](http://metrics.codahale.com/) to measure the behaviors of critical components and operations, including running applications and containers, cluster available resources, scheduler operation timecost, et al. If the switch `yarn.sls.runner.metrics.switch` is set `ON`, `Metrics` will run and output it logs in `--output-dir` directory specified by users. Users can track these information during simulator running, and can also analyze these logs after running to evaluate the scheduler performance. + +### Real-time Tracking + +The simulator provides an interface for tracking its running in real-time. Users can go to `http://host:port/simulate` to track whole running, and `http://host:port/track` to track a particular job or queue. Here the `host` is the place when we run the simulator, and `port` is the value configured by `yarn.sls.metrics.web.address.port` (default value is 10001). + +Here we'll illustrate each chart shown in the webpage. + +The first figure describes the number of running applications and containers. + +![Number of running applications/containers](images/sls_running_apps_containers.png) + +The second figure describes the allocated and available resources (memory) in the cluster. + +![Cluster Resource (Memory)](images/sls_cluster_memory.png) + +The third figure describes the allocated resource for each queue. Here we have three queues: sls\_queue\_1, sls\_queue\_2, and sls\_queue\_3.The first two queues are configured with 25% share, while the last one has 50% share. + +![Queue Allocated Resource (Memory)](images/sls_queue_allocated_memory.png) + +The fourth figure describes the timecost for each scheduler operation. + +![Scheduler Opertion Timecost](images/sls_scheduler_operation_timecost.png) + +Finally, we measure the memory used by the simulator. + +![JVM Memory](images/sls_JVM.png) + +The simulator also provides an interface for tracking some particular jobs and queues. Go to `http://:/track` to get these information. + +Here the first figure illustrates the resource usage information for queue `SLS_Queue_1`. + +![Tracking Queue `sls_queue_3`](images/sls_track_queue.png) + +The second figure illustrates the resource usage information for job `job_1369942127770_0653`. + +![Tracking Job `job_1369942127770_0653`](images/sls_track_job.png) + +### Offline Analysis + +After the simulator finishes, all logs are saved in the output directory specified by `--output-dir` in `$HADOOP_ROOT/share/hadoop/tools/sls/bin/slsrun.sh`. + +* File `realtimetrack.json`: records all real-time tracking logs every 1 + second. + +* File `jobruntime.csv`: records all jobs’ start and end time in the + simulator. + +* Folder `metrics`: logs generated by the Metrics. + +Users can also reproduce those real-time tracking charts in offline mode. Just upload the `realtimetrack.json` to `$HADOOP_ROOT/share/hadoop/tools/sls/html/showSimulationTrace.html`.

The - utility allows you to create and run Map/Reduce jobs with any executable or - script as the mapper and/or the reducer. For example: - -+---+ -hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ - -input myInputDirs \ - -output myOutputDir \ - -mapper /bin/cat \ - -reducer /usr/bin/wc -+---+ - -* How Streaming Works - - In the above example, both the mapper and the reducer are executables that - read the input from stdin (line by line) and emit the output to stdout. The - utility will create a Map/Reduce job, submit the job to an appropriate - cluster, and monitor the progress of the job until it completes. - - When an executable is specified for mappers, each mapper task will launch the - executable as a separate process when the mapper is initialized. As the - mapper task runs, it converts its inputs into lines and feed the lines to the - stdin of the process. In the meantime, the mapper collects the line oriented - outputs from the stdout of the process and converts each line into a - key/value pair, which is collected as the output of the mapper. By default, - the is the <<>> and the - rest of the line (excluding the tab character) will be the <<>>. If - there is no tab character in the line, then entire line is considered as key - and the value is null. However, this can be customized by setting - <<<-inputformat>>> command option, as discussed later. - - When an executable is specified for reducers, each reducer task will launch - the executable as a separate process then the reducer is initialized. As the - reducer task runs, it converts its input key/values pairs into lines and - feeds the lines to the stdin of the process. In the meantime, the reducer - collects the line oriented outputs from the stdout of the process, converts - each line into a key/value pair, which is collected as the output of the - reducer. By default, the prefix of a line up to the first tab character is - the key and the rest of the line (excluding the tab character) is the value. - However, this can be customized by setting <<<-outputformat>>> command - option, as discussed later. - - This is the basis for the communication protocol between the Map/Reduce - framework and the streaming mapper/reducer. - - User can specify <<>> as <<>> or - <<>> to make a streaming task that exits with a non-zero status to be - <<>> or <<>> respectively. By default, streaming tasks - exiting with non-zero status are considered to be failed tasks. - -* Streaming Command Options - - Streaming supports streaming command options as well as - {{{Generic_Command_Options}generic command options}}. The general command - line syntax is shown below. - - <> Be sure to place the generic options before the streaming options, - otherwise the command will fail. For an example, see - {{{Making_Archives_Available_to_Tasks}Making Archives Available to Tasks}}. - -+---+ -hadoop command [genericOptions] [streamingOptions] -+---+ - - The Hadoop streaming command options are listed here: - -*-------------*--------------------*------------------------------------------* -|| Parameter || Optional/Required || Description | -*-------------+--------------------+------------------------------------------+ -| -input directoryname or filename | Required | Input location for mapper -*-------------+--------------------+------------------------------------------+ -| -output directoryname | Required | Output location for reducer -*-------------+--------------------+------------------------------------------+ -| -mapper executable or JavaClassName | Required | Mapper executable -*-------------+--------------------+------------------------------------------+ -| -reducer executable or JavaClassName | Required | Reducer executable -*-------------+--------------------+------------------------------------------+ -| -file filename | Optional | Make the mapper, reducer, or combiner executable -| | | available locally on the compute nodes -*-------------+--------------------+------------------------------------------+ -| -inputformat JavaClassName | Optional | Class you supply should return -| | | key/value pairs of Text class.

By default, streaming tasks - exiting with non-zero status are considered to be failed tasks. - -** Packaging Files With Job Submissions - - You can specify any executable as the mapper and/or the reducer. The - executables do not need to pre-exist on the machines in the cluster; however, - if they don't, you will need to use "-file" option to tell the framework to - pack your executable files as a part of job submission.

If you do not specify an input format class, the TextInputFormat - is used as the default. Since the TextInputFormat returns keys of - LongWritable class, which are actually not part of the input data, the keys - will be discarded; only the values will be piped to the streaming mapper. - - The class you supply for the output format is expected to take key/value - pairs of Text class. If you do not specify an output format class, the - TextOutputFormat is used as the default. - -** Setting Environment Variables - - To set an environment variable in a streaming command use: - -+---+ - -cmdenv EXAMPLE_DIR=/home/example/dictionaries/ -+---+ - -* Generic Command Options - - Streaming supports {{{Streaming_Command_Options}streaming command options}} - as well as generic command options.

To do - this, simply set <<>> to zero. The Map/Reduce - framework will not create any reducer tasks. Rather, the outputs of the - mapper tasks will be the final output of the job. - -+---+ - -D mapreduce.job.reduces=0 -+---+ - - To be backward compatible, Hadoop Streaming also supports the "-reducer NONE" - option, which is equivalent to "-D mapreduce.job.reduces=0". - -*** Specifying the Number of Reducers - - To specify the number of reducers, for example two, use: - -+---+ -hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ - -D mapreduce.job.reduces=2 \ - -input myInputDirs \ - -output myOutputDir \ - -mapper /bin/cat \ - -reducer /usr/bin/wc -+---+ - -*** Customizing How Lines are Split into Key/Value Pairs - - As noted earlier, when the Map/Reduce framework reads a line from the stdout - of the mapper, it splits the line into a key/value pair. By default, the - prefix of the line up to the first tab character is the key and the rest of - the line (excluding the tab character) is the value. - - However, you can customize this default. You can specify a field separator - other than the tab character (the default), and you can specify the nth - (n >= 1) character rather than the first character in a line (the default) as - the separator between the key and value. For example: - -+---+ -hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ - -D stream.map.output.field.separator=. \ - -D stream.num.map.output.key.fields=4 \ - -input myInputDirs \ - -output myOutputDir \ - -mapper /bin/cat \ - -reducer /bin/cat -+---+ - - In the above example, "-D stream.map.output.field.separator=." specifies "." - as the field separator for the map outputs, and the prefix up to the fourth - "." in a line will be the key and the rest of the line (excluding the fourth - ".") will be the value. If a line has less than four "."s, then the whole - line will be the key and the value will be an empty Text object (like the one - created by new Text("")). - - Similarly, you can use "-D stream.reduce.output.field.separator=SEP" and - "-D stream.num.reduce.output.fields=NUM" to specify the nth field separator - in a line of the reduce outputs as the separator between the key and the - value. - - Similarly, you can specify "stream.map.input.field.separator" and - "stream.reduce.input.field.separator" as the input separator for Map/Reduce - inputs. By default the separator is the tab character. - -** Working with Large Files and Archives - - The -files and -archives options allow you to make files and archives - available to the tasks. The argument is a URI to the file or archive that you - have already uploaded to HDFS. These files and archives are cached across - jobs. You can retrieve the host and fs_port values from the fs.default.name - config variable. - - <> The -files and -archives options are generic options. Be sure to - place the generic options before the command options, otherwise the command - will fail. - -*** Making Files Available to Tasks - - The -files option creates a symlink in the current working directory of the - tasks that points to the local copy of the file. - - In this example, Hadoop automatically creates a symlink named testfile.txt in - the current working directory of the tasks. This symlink points to the local - copy of testfile.txt. - -+---+ --files hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile.txt -+---+ - - User can specify a different symlink name for -files using #. - -+---+ --files hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile.txt#testfile -+---+ - - Multiple entries can be specified like this: - -+---+ --files hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile1.txt,hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile2.txt -+---+ - -*** Making Archives Available to Tasks - - The -archives option allows you to copy jars locally to the current working - directory of tasks and automatically unjar the files. - - In this example, Hadoop automatically creates a symlink named testfile.jar in - the current working directory of tasks. This symlink points to the directory - that stores the unjarred contents of the uploaded jar file. - -+---+ --archives hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile.jar -+---+ - - User can specify a different symlink name for -archives using #. - -+---+ --archives hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile.tgz#tgzdir -+---+ - - In this example, the input.txt file has two lines specifying the names of the - two files: cachedir.jar/cache.txt and cachedir.jar/cache2.txt.

However, the Map/Reduce framework will partition the map - outputs by the first two fields of the keys using the - <-D mapred.text.key.partitioner.options=-k1,2> option. Here, - <-D map.output.key.field.separator=.> specifies the separator for the - partition.

Aggregate provides a special reducer class and a special - combiner class, and a list of simple aggregators that perform aggregations - such as "sum", "max", "min" and so on over a sequence of values. Aggregate - allows you to define a mapper plugin class that is expected to generate - "aggregatable items" for each input key/value pair of the mappers. The - combiner/reducer will aggregate those aggregatable items by invoking the - appropriate aggregators. - - To use Aggregate, simply specify "-reducer aggregate": - -+---+ -hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ - -input myInputDirs \ - -output myOutputDir \ - -mapper myAggregatorForKeyCount.py \ - -reducer aggregate \ - -file myAggregatorForKeyCount.py \ -+---+ - - The python program myAggregatorForKeyCount.py looks like: - -+---+ -#!/usr/bin/python - -import sys; - -def generateLongCountToken(id): - return "LongValueSum:" + id + "\t" + "1" - -def main(argv): - line = sys.stdin.readline(); - try: - while line: - line = line[:-1]; - fields = line.split("\t"); - print generateLongCountToken(fields[0]); - line = sys.stdin.readline(); - except "end of file": - return None -if __name__ == "__main__": - main(sys.argv) -+---+ - -** Hadoop Field Selection Class - - Hadoop has a library class, - {{{../../api/org/apache/hadoop/mapred/lib/FieldSelectionMapReduce.html} - FieldSelectionMapReduce}}, that effectively allows you to process text data - like the unix "cut" utility. The map function defined in the class treats - each input key/value pair as a list of fields. You can specify the field - separator (the default is the tab character). You can select an arbitrary - list of fields as the map output key, and an arbitrary list of fields as the - map output value. Similarly, the reduce function defined in the class treats - each input key/value pair as a list of fields. You can select an arbitrary - list of fields as the reduce output key, and an arbitrary list of fields as - the reduce output value. For example: - -+---+ -hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ - -D mapreduce.map.output.key.field.separator=. \ - -D mapreduce.partition.keypartitioner.options=-k1,2 \ - -D mapreduce.fieldsel.data.field.separator=. \ - -D mapreduce.fieldsel.map.output.key.value.fields.spec=6,5,1-3:0- \ - -D mapreduce.fieldsel.reduce.output.key.value.fields.spec=0-2:5- \ - -D mapreduce.map.output.key.class=org.apache.hadoop.io.Text \ - -D mapreduce.job.reduces=12 \ - -input myInputDirs \ - -output myOutputDir \ - -mapper org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.FieldSelectionMapReduce \ - -reducer org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.FieldSelectionMapReduce \ - -partitioner org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.KeyFieldBasedPartitioner -+---+ - - The option "-D - mapreduce.fieldsel.map.output.key.value.fields.spec=6,5,1-3:0-" specifies - key/value selection for the map outputs. Key selection spec and value - selection spec are separated by ":". In this case, the map output key will - consist of fields 6, 5, 1, 2, and 3. The map output value will consist of all - fields (0- means field 0 and all the subsequent fields). - - The option "-D mapreduce.fieldsel.reduce.output.key.value.fields.spec=0-2:5-" - specifies key/value selection for the reduce outputs. In this case, the - reduce output key will consist of fields 0, 1, 2 (corresponding to the - original fields 6, 5, 1). The reduce output value will consist of all fields - starting from field 5 (corresponding to all the original fields). - -* Frequently Asked Questions - -** How do I use Hadoop Streaming to run an arbitrary set of (semi) independent - tasks? - - Often you do not need the full power of Map Reduce, but only need to run - multiple instances of the same program - either on different parts of the - data, or on the same data, but with different parameters. You can use Hadoop - Streaming to do this. - -** How do I process files, one per map? - - As an example, consider the problem of zipping (compressing) a set of files - across the hadoop cluster. You can achieve this by using Hadoop Streaming - and custom mapper script: - - * Generate a file containing the full HDFS path of the input files. Each map - task would get one file name as input. - - * Create a mapper script which, given a filename, will get the file to local - disk, gzip the file and put it back in the desired output directory. - -** How many reducers should I use? - - See MapReduce Tutorial for details: {{{./MapReduceTutorial.html#Reducer} - Reducer}} - -** If I set up an alias in my shell script, will that work after -mapper? - - For example, say I do: alias c1='cut -f1'. Will -mapper "c1" work? - - Using an alias will not work, but variable substitution is allowed as shown - in this example: - -+---+ -$ hdfs dfs -cat /user/me/samples/student_marks -alice 50 -bruce 70 -charlie 80 -dan 75 - -$ c2='cut -f2'; hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ - -D mapreduce.job.name='Experiment' \ - -input /user/me/samples/student_marks \ - -output /user/me/samples/student_out \ - -mapper "$c2" -reducer 'cat' - -$ hdfs dfs -cat /user/me/samples/student_out/part-00000 -50 -70 -75 -80 -+---+ - -** Can I use UNIX pipes? - - For example, will -mapper "cut -f1 | sed s/foo/bar/g" work? - - Currently this does not work and gives an "java.io.IOException: Broken pipe" - error. This is probably a bug that needs to be investigated. - -** What do I do if I get the "No space left on device" error? - - For example, when I run a streaming job by distributing large executables - (for example, 3.6G) through the -file option, I get a "No space left on - device" error. - - The jar packaging happens in a directory pointed to by the configuration - variable stream.tmpdir. The default value of stream.tmpdir is /tmp. Set the - value to a directory with more space: - -+---+ --D stream.tmpdir=/export/bigspace/... -+---+ - -** How do I specify multiple input directories? - - You can specify multiple input directories with multiple '-input' options: - -+---+ -hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ - -input '/user/foo/dir1' -input '/user/foo/dir2' \ - (rest of the command) -+---+ - -** How do I generate output files with gzip format? - - Instead of plain text files, you can generate gzip files as your generated - output. Pass '-D mapreduce.output.fileoutputformat.compress=true -D - mapreduce.output.fileoutputformat.compress.codec=org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.GzipCodec' - as option to your streaming job. - -** How do I provide my own input/output format with streaming? - - You can specify your own custom class by packing them and putting the custom - jar to \$\{HADOOP_CLASSPATH\}. - -** How do I parse XML documents using streaming? - - You can use the record reader StreamXmlRecordReader to process XML documents. - -+---+ -hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ - -inputreader "StreamXmlRecord,begin=BEGIN_STRING,end=END_STRING" \ - (rest of the command) -+---+ - - Anything found between BEGIN_STRING and END_STRING would be treated as one - record for map tasks. - -** How do I update counters in streaming applications? - - A streaming process can use the stderr to emit counter information. - <<,\,\>>> should be sent to - stderr to update the counter. - -** How do I update status in streaming applications? - - A streaming process can use the stderr to emit status information. To set a - status, <<>>> should be sent to stderr. - -** How do I get the Job variables in a streaming job's mapper/reducer? - - See {{{./MapReduceTutorial.html#Configured_Parameters} - Configured Parameters}}. During the execution of a streaming job, the names - of the "mapred" parameters are transformed. The dots ( . ) become underscores - ( _ ). For example, mapreduce.job.id becomes mapreduce_job_id and - mapreduce.job.jar becomes mapreduce_job_jar. In your code, use the parameter - names with the underscores. diff --git a/hadoop-tools/hadoop-streaming/src/site/markdown/HadoopStreaming.md.vm b/hadoop-tools/hadoop-streaming/src/site/markdown/HadoopStreaming.md.vm new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..0b64586591 --- /dev/null +++ b/hadoop-tools/hadoop-streaming/src/site/markdown/HadoopStreaming.md.vm @@ -0,0 +1,559 @@ +% + +#set ( $H3 = '###' ) +#set ( $H4 = '####' ) +#set ( $H5 = '#####' ) + +Hadoop Streaming +================ + +* [Hadoop Streaming](#Hadoop_Streaming) + * [Hadoop Streaming](#Hadoop_Streaming) + * [How Streaming Works](#How_Streaming_Works) + * [Streaming Command Options](#Streaming_Command_Options) + * [Specifying a Java Class as the Mapper/Reducer](#Specifying_a_Java_Class_as_the_MapperReducer) + * [Packaging Files With Job Submissions](#Packaging_Files_With_Job_Submissions) + * [Specifying Other Plugins for Jobs](#Specifying_Other_Plugins_for_Jobs) + * [Setting Environment Variables](#Setting_Environment_Variables) + * [Generic Command Options](#Generic_Command_Options) + * [Specifying Configuration Variables with the -D Option](#Specifying_Configuration_Variables_with_the_-D_Option) + * [Specifying Directories](#Specifying_Directories) + * [Specifying Map-Only Jobs](#Specifying_Map-Only_Jobs) + * [Specifying the Number of Reducers](#Specifying_the_Number_of_Reducers) + * [Customizing How Lines are Split into Key/Value Pairs](#Customizing_How_Lines_are_Split_into_KeyValue_Pairs) + * [Working with Large Files and Archives](#Working_with_Large_Files_and_Archives) + * [Making Files Available to Tasks](#Making_Files_Available_to_Tasks) + * [Making Archives Available to Tasks](#Making_Archives_Available_to_Tasks) + * [More Usage Examples](#More_Usage_Examples) + * [Hadoop Partitioner Class](#Hadoop_Partitioner_Class) + * [Hadoop Comparator Class](#Hadoop_Comparator_Class) + * [Hadoop Aggregate Package](#Hadoop_Aggregate_Package) + * [Hadoop Field Selection Class](#Hadoop_Field_Selection_Class) + * [Frequently Asked Questions](#Frequently_Asked_Questions) + * [How do I use Hadoop Streaming to run an arbitrary set of (semi) independent tasks?](#How_do_I_use_Hadoop_Streaming_to_run_an_arbitrary_set_of_semi_independent_tasks) + * [How do I process files, one per map?](#How_do_I_process_files_one_per_map) + * [How many reducers should I use?](#How_many_reducers_should_I_use) + * [If I set up an alias in my shell script, will that work after -mapper?](#If_I_set_up_an_alias_in_my_shell_script_will_that_work_after_-mapper) + * [Can I use UNIX pipes?](#Can_I_use_UNIX_pipes) + * [What do I do if I get the "No space left on device" error?](#What_do_I_do_if_I_get_the_No_space_left_on_device_error) + * [How do I specify multiple input directories?](#How_do_I_specify_multiple_input_directories) + * [How do I generate output files with gzip format?](#How_do_I_generate_output_files_with_gzip_format) + * [How do I provide my own input/output format with streaming?](#How_do_I_provide_my_own_inputoutput_format_with_streaming) + * [How do I parse XML documents using streaming?](#How_do_I_parse_XML_documents_using_streaming) + * [How do I update counters in streaming applications?](#How_do_I_update_counters_in_streaming_applications) + * [How do I update status in streaming applications?](#How_do_I_update_status_in_streaming_applications) + * [How do I get the Job variables in a streaming job's mapper/reducer?](#How_do_I_get_the_Job_variables_in_a_streaming_jobs_mapperreducer) + +Hadoop Streaming +---------------- + +Hadoop streaming is a utility that comes with the Hadoop distribution. The utility allows you to create and run Map/Reduce jobs with any executable or script as the mapper and/or the reducer. For example: + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -input myInputDirs \ + -output myOutputDir \ + -mapper /bin/cat \ + -reducer /usr/bin/wc + +How Streaming Works +------------------- + +In the above example, both the mapper and the reducer are executables that read the input from stdin (line by line) and emit the output to stdout. The utility will create a Map/Reduce job, submit the job to an appropriate cluster, and monitor the progress of the job until it completes. + +When an executable is specified for mappers, each mapper task will launch the executable as a separate process when the mapper is initialized. As the mapper task runs, it converts its inputs into lines and feed the lines to the stdin of the process. In the meantime, the mapper collects the line oriented outputs from the stdout of the process and converts each line into a key/value pair, which is collected as the output of the mapper. By default, the *prefix of a line up to the first tab character* is the `key` and the rest of the line (excluding the tab character) will be the `value`. If there is no tab character in the line, then entire line is considered as key and the value is null. However, this can be customized by setting `-inputformat` command option, as discussed later. + +When an executable is specified for reducers, each reducer task will launch the executable as a separate process then the reducer is initialized. As the reducer task runs, it converts its input key/values pairs into lines and feeds the lines to the stdin of the process. In the meantime, the reducer collects the line oriented outputs from the stdout of the process, converts each line into a key/value pair, which is collected as the output of the reducer. By default, the prefix of a line up to the first tab character is the key and the rest of the line (excluding the tab character) is the value. However, this can be customized by setting `-outputformat` command option, as discussed later. + +This is the basis for the communication protocol between the Map/Reduce framework and the streaming mapper/reducer. + +User can specify `stream.non.zero.exit.is.failure` as `true` or `false` to make a streaming task that exits with a non-zero status to be `Failure` or `Success` respectively. By default, streaming tasks exiting with non-zero status are considered to be failed tasks. + +Streaming Command Options +------------------------- + +Streaming supports streaming command options as well as [generic command options](#Generic_Command_Options). The general command line syntax is shown below. + +**Note:** Be sure to place the generic options before the streaming options, otherwise the command will fail. For an example, see [Making Archives Available to Tasks](#Making_Archives_Available_to_Tasks). + + hadoop command [genericOptions] [streamingOptions] + +The Hadoop streaming command options are listed here: + +| Parameter | Optional/Required | Description | +|:---- |:---- |:---- | +| -input directoryname or filename | Required | Input location for mapper | +| -output directoryname | Required | Output location for reducer | +| -mapper executable or JavaClassName | Required | Mapper executable | +| -reducer executable or JavaClassName | Required | Reducer executable | +| -file filename | Optional | Make the mapper, reducer, or combiner executable available locally on the compute nodes | +| -inputformat JavaClassName | Optional | Class you supply should return key/value pairs of Text class. If not specified, TextInputFormat is used as the default | +| -outputformat JavaClassName | Optional | Class you supply should take key/value pairs of Text class.

By default, streaming tasks exiting with non-zero status are considered to be failed tasks. + +$H3 Packaging Files With Job Submissions + +You can specify any executable as the mapper and/or the reducer. The executables do not need to pre-exist on the machines in the cluster; however, if they don't, you will need to use "-file" option to tell the framework to pack your executable files as a part of job submission. For example: + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -input myInputDirs \ + -output myOutputDir \ + -mapper myPythonScript.py \ + -reducer /usr/bin/wc \ + -file myPythonScript.py + +The above example specifies a user defined Python executable as the mapper. The option "-file myPythonScript.py" causes the python executable shipped to the cluster machines as a part of job submission. + +In addition to executable files, you can also package other auxiliary files (such as dictionaries, configuration files, etc) that may be used by the mapper and/or the reducer. For example: + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -input myInputDirs \ + -output myOutputDir \ + -mapper myPythonScript.py \ + -reducer /usr/bin/wc \ + -file myPythonScript.py \ + -file myDictionary.txt + +$H3 Specifying Other Plugins for Jobs + +Just as with a normal Map/Reduce job, you can specify other plugins for a streaming job: + + -inputformat JavaClassName + -outputformat JavaClassName + -partitioner JavaClassName + -combiner streamingCommand or JavaClassName + +The class you supply for the input format should return key/value pairs of Text class. If you do not specify an input format class, the TextInputFormat is used as the default. Since the TextInputFormat returns keys of LongWritable class, which are actually not part of the input data, the keys will be discarded; only the values will be piped to the streaming mapper. + +The class you supply for the output format is expected to take key/value pairs of Text class. If you do not specify an output format class, the TextOutputFormat is used as the default. + +$H3 Setting Environment Variables + +To set an environment variable in a streaming command use: + + -cmdenv EXAMPLE_DIR=/home/example/dictionaries/ + +Generic Command Options +----------------------- + +Streaming supports [streaming command options](#Streaming_Command_Options) as well as generic command options. The general command line syntax is shown below. + +**Note:** Be sure to place the generic options before the streaming options, otherwise the command will fail. For an example, see [Making Archives Available to Tasks](#Making_Archives_Available_to_Tasks). + + hadoop command [genericOptions] [streamingOptions] + +The Hadoop generic command options you can use with streaming are listed here: + +| Parameter | Optional/Required | Description | +|:---- |:---- |:---- | +| -conf configuration\_file | Optional | Specify an application configuration file | +| -D property=value | Optional | Use value for given property | +| -fs host:port or local | Optional | Specify a namenode | +| -files | Optional | Specify comma-separated files to be copied to the Map/Reduce cluster | +| -libjars | Optional | Specify comma-separated jar files to include in the classpath | +| -archives | Optional | Specify comma-separated archives to be unarchived on the compute machines | + +$H3 Specifying Configuration Variables with the -D Option + +You can specify additional configuration variables by using "-D \=\". + +$H4 Specifying Directories + +To change the local temp directory use: + + -D dfs.data.dir=/tmp + +To specify additional local temp directories use: + + -D mapred.local.dir=/tmp/local + -D mapred.system.dir=/tmp/system + -D mapred.temp.dir=/tmp/temp + +**Note:** For more details on job configuration parameters see: [mapred-default.xml](./mapred-default.xml) + +$H4 Specifying Map-Only Jobs + +Often, you may want to process input data using a map function only. To do this, simply set `mapreduce.job.reduces` to zero. The Map/Reduce framework will not create any reducer tasks. Rather, the outputs of the mapper tasks will be the final output of the job. + + -D mapreduce.job.reduces=0 + +To be backward compatible, Hadoop Streaming also supports the "-reducer NONE" option, which is equivalent to "-D mapreduce.job.reduces=0". + +$H4 Specifying the Number of Reducers + +To specify the number of reducers, for example two, use: + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -D mapreduce.job.reduces=2 \ + -input myInputDirs \ + -output myOutputDir \ + -mapper /bin/cat \ + -reducer /usr/bin/wc + +$H4 Customizing How Lines are Split into Key/Value Pairs + +As noted earlier, when the Map/Reduce framework reads a line from the stdout of the mapper, it splits the line into a key/value pair. By default, the prefix of the line up to the first tab character is the key and the rest of the line (excluding the tab character) is the value. + +However, you can customize this default. You can specify a field separator other than the tab character (the default), and you can specify the nth (n \>= 1) character rather than the first character in a line (the default) as the separator between the key and value. For example: + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -D stream.map.output.field.separator=. \ + -D stream.num.map.output.key.fields=4 \ + -input myInputDirs \ + -output myOutputDir \ + -mapper /bin/cat \ + -reducer /bin/cat + +In the above example, "-D stream.map.output.field.separator=." specifies "." as the field separator for the map outputs, and the prefix up to the fourth "." in a line will be the key and the rest of the line (excluding the fourth ".") will be the value. If a line has less than four "."s, then the whole line will be the key and the value will be an empty Text object (like the one created by new Text("")). + +Similarly, you can use "-D stream.reduce.output.field.separator=SEP" and "-D stream.num.reduce.output.fields=NUM" to specify the nth field separator in a line of the reduce outputs as the separator between the key and the value. + +Similarly, you can specify "stream.map.input.field.separator" and "stream.reduce.input.field.separator" as the input separator for Map/Reduce inputs. By default the separator is the tab character. + +$H3 Working with Large Files and Archives + +The -files and -archives options allow you to make files and archives available to the tasks. The argument is a URI to the file or archive that you have already uploaded to HDFS. These files and archives are cached across jobs. You can retrieve the host and fs\_port values from the fs.default.name config variable. + +**Note:** The -files and -archives options are generic options. Be sure to place the generic options before the command options, otherwise the command will fail. + +$H4 Making Files Available to Tasks + +The -files option creates a symlink in the current working directory of the tasks that points to the local copy of the file. + +In this example, Hadoop automatically creates a symlink named testfile.txt in the current working directory of the tasks. This symlink points to the local copy of testfile.txt. + + -files hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile.txt + +User can specify a different symlink name for -files using \#. + + -files hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile.txt#testfile + +Multiple entries can be specified like this: + + -files hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile1.txt,hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile2.txt + +$H4 Making Archives Available to Tasks + +The -archives option allows you to copy jars locally to the current working directory of tasks and automatically unjar the files. + +In this example, Hadoop automatically creates a symlink named testfile.jar in the current working directory of tasks. This symlink points to the directory that stores the unjarred contents of the uploaded jar file. + + -archives hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile.jar + +User can specify a different symlink name for -archives using \#. + + -archives hdfs://host:fs_port/user/testfile.tgz#tgzdir + +In this example, the input.txt file has two lines specifying the names of the two files: cachedir.jar/cache.txt and cachedir.jar/cache2.txt.

This class allows the Map/Reduce framework to partition the map outputs based on certain key fields, not the whole keys. For example: + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -D stream.map.output.field.separator=. \ + -D stream.num.map.output.key.fields=4 \ + -D map.output.key.field.separator=. \ + -D mapreduce.partition.keypartitioner.options=-k1,2 \ + -D mapreduce.job.reduces=12 \ + -input myInputDirs \ + -output myOutputDir \ + -mapper /bin/cat \ + -reducer /bin/cat \ + -partitioner org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.KeyFieldBasedPartitioner + +Here, *-D stream.map.output.field.separator=.* and *-D stream.num.map.output.key.fields=4* are as explained in previous example. The two variables are used by streaming to identify the key/value pair of mapper. + +The map output keys of the above Map/Reduce job normally have four fields separated by ".". However, the Map/Reduce framework will partition the map outputs by the first two fields of the keys using the *-D mapred.text.key.partitioner.options=-k1,2* option. Here, *-D map.output.key.field.separator=.* specifies the separator for the partition. This guarantees that all the key/value pairs with the same first two fields in the keys will be partitioned into the same reducer. + +*This is effectively equivalent to specifying the first two fields as the primary key and the next two fields as the secondary. The primary key is used for partitioning, and the combination of the primary and secondary keys is used for sorting.* A simple illustration is shown here: + +Output of map (the keys) + + 11.12.1.2 + 11.14.2.3 + 11.11.4.1 + 11.12.1.1 + 11.14.2.2 + +Partition into 3 reducers (the first 2 fields are used as keys for partition) + + 11.11.4.1 + ----------- + 11.12.1.2 + 11.12.1.1 + ----------- + 11.14.2.3 + 11.14.2.2 + +Sorting within each partition for the reducer(all 4 fields used for sorting) + + 11.11.4.1 + ----------- + 11.12.1.1 + 11.12.1.2 + ----------- + 11.14.2.2 + 11.14.2.3 + +$H3 Hadoop Comparator Class + +Hadoop has a library class, [KeyFieldBasedComparator](../../api/org/apache/hadoop/mapreduce/lib/partition/KeyFieldBasedComparator.html), that is useful for many applications. This class provides a subset of features provided by the Unix/GNU Sort.

However, the Map/Reduce framework will sort the outputs by the second field of the keys using the *-D mapreduce.partition.keycomparator.options=-k2,2nr* option. Here, *-n* specifies that the sorting is numerical sorting and *-r* specifies that the result should be reversed. A simple illustration is shown below: + +Output of map (the keys) + + 11.12.1.2 + 11.14.2.3 + 11.11.4.1 + 11.12.1.1 + 11.14.2.2 + +Sorting output for the reducer (where second field used for sorting) + + 11.14.2.3 + 11.14.2.2 + 11.12.1.2 + 11.12.1.1 + 11.11.4.1 + +$H3 Hadoop Aggregate Package + +Hadoop has a library package called [Aggregate](../../org/apache/hadoop/mapred/lib/aggregate/package-summary.html). Aggregate provides a special reducer class and a special combiner class, and a list of simple aggregators that perform aggregations such as "sum", "max", "min" and so on over a sequence of values. Aggregate allows you to define a mapper plugin class that is expected to generate "aggregatable items" for each input key/value pair of the mappers. The combiner/reducer will aggregate those aggregatable items by invoking the appropriate aggregators. + +To use Aggregate, simply specify "-reducer aggregate": + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -input myInputDirs \ + -output myOutputDir \ + -mapper myAggregatorForKeyCount.py \ + -reducer aggregate \ + -file myAggregatorForKeyCount.py \ + +The python program myAggregatorForKeyCount.py looks like: + + #!/usr/bin/python + + import sys; + + def generateLongCountToken(id): + return "LongValueSum:" + id + "\t" + "1" + + def main(argv): + line = sys.stdin.readline(); + try: + while line: + line = line[:-1]; + fields = line.split("\t"); + print generateLongCountToken(fields[0]); + line = sys.stdin.readline(); + except "end of file": + return None + if __name__ == "__main__": + main(sys.argv) + +$H3 Hadoop Field Selection Class + +Hadoop has a library class, [FieldSelectionMapReduce](../../api/org/apache/hadoop/mapred/lib/FieldSelectionMapReduce.html), that effectively allows you to process text data like the unix "cut" utility. The map function defined in the class treats each input key/value pair as a list of fields. You can specify the field separator (the default is the tab character). You can select an arbitrary list of fields as the map output key, and an arbitrary list of fields as the map output value. Similarly, the reduce function defined in the class treats each input key/value pair as a list of fields. You can select an arbitrary list of fields as the reduce output key, and an arbitrary list of fields as the reduce output value. For example: + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -D mapreduce.map.output.key.field.separator=. \ + -D mapreduce.partition.keypartitioner.options=-k1,2 \ + -D mapreduce.fieldsel.data.field.separator=. \ + -D mapreduce.fieldsel.map.output.key.value.fields.spec=6,5,1-3:0- \ + -D mapreduce.fieldsel.reduce.output.key.value.fields.spec=0-2:5- \ + -D mapreduce.map.output.key.class=org.apache.hadoop.io.Text \ + -D mapreduce.job.reduces=12 \ + -input myInputDirs \ + -output myOutputDir \ + -mapper org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.FieldSelectionMapReduce \ + -reducer org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.FieldSelectionMapReduce \ + -partitioner org.apache.hadoop.mapred.lib.KeyFieldBasedPartitioner + +The option "-D mapreduce.fieldsel.map.output.key.value.fields.spec=6,5,1-3:0-" specifies key/value selection for the map outputs. Key selection spec and value selection spec are separated by ":". In this case, the map output key will consist of fields 6, 5, 1, 2, and 3. The map output value will consist of all fields (0- means field 0 and all the subsequent fields). + +The option "-D mapreduce.fieldsel.reduce.output.key.value.fields.spec=0-2:5-" specifies key/value selection for the reduce outputs. In this case, the reduce output key will consist of fields 0, 1, 2 (corresponding to the original fields 6, 5, 1). The reduce output value will consist of all fields starting from field 5 (corresponding to all the original fields). + +Frequently Asked Questions +-------------------------- + +$H3 How do I use Hadoop Streaming to run an arbitrary set of (semi) independent tasks? + +Often you do not need the full power of Map Reduce, but only need to run multiple instances of the same program - either on different parts of the data, or on the same data, but with different parameters. You can use Hadoop Streaming to do this. + +$H3 How do I process files, one per map? + +As an example, consider the problem of zipping (compressing) a set of files across the hadoop cluster. You can achieve this by using Hadoop Streaming and custom mapper script: + +* Generate a file containing the full HDFS path of the input files. Each map + task would get one file name as input. + +* Create a mapper script which, given a filename, will get the file to local + disk, gzip the file and put it back in the desired output directory. + +$H3 How many reducers should I use? + +See MapReduce Tutorial for details: [Reducer](./MapReduceTutorial.html#Reducer) + +$H3 If I set up an alias in my shell script, will that work after -mapper? + +For example, say I do: alias c1='cut -f1'. Will -mapper "c1" work? + +Using an alias will not work, but variable substitution is allowed as shown in this example: + + $ hdfs dfs -cat /user/me/samples/student_marks + alice 50 + bruce 70 + charlie 80 + dan 75 + + $ c2='cut -f2'; hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -D mapreduce.job.name='Experiment' \ + -input /user/me/samples/student_marks \ + -output /user/me/samples/student_out \ + -mapper "$c2" -reducer 'cat' + + $ hdfs dfs -cat /user/me/samples/student_out/part-00000 + 50 + 70 + 75 + 80 + +$H3 Can I use UNIX pipes? + +For example, will -mapper "cut -f1 | sed s/foo/bar/g" work? + +Currently this does not work and gives an "java.io.IOException: Broken pipe" error. This is probably a bug that needs to be investigated. + +$H3 What do I do if I get the "No space left on device" error? + +For example, when I run a streaming job by distributing large executables (for example, 3.6G) through the -file option, I get a "No space left on device" error. + +The jar packaging happens in a directory pointed to by the configuration variable stream.tmpdir. The default value of stream.tmpdir is /tmp. Set the value to a directory with more space: + + -D stream.tmpdir=/export/bigspace/... + +$H3 How do I specify multiple input directories? + +You can specify multiple input directories with multiple '-input' options: + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -input '/user/foo/dir1' -input '/user/foo/dir2' \ + (rest of the command) + +$H3 How do I generate output files with gzip format? + +Instead of plain text files, you can generate gzip files as your generated output. Pass '-D mapreduce.output.fileoutputformat.compress=true -D mapreduce.output.fileoutputformat.compress.codec=org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.GzipCodec' as option to your streaming job. + +$H3 How do I provide my own input/output format with streaming? + +You can specify your own custom class by packing them and putting the custom jar to `$HADOOP_CLASSPATH`. + +$H3 How do I parse XML documents using streaming? + +You can use the record reader StreamXmlRecordReader to process XML documents. + + hadoop jar hadoop-streaming-${project.version}.jar \ + -inputreader "StreamXmlRecord,begin=BEGIN_STRING,end=END_STRING" \ + (rest of the command) + +Anything found between BEGIN\_STRING and END\_STRING would be treated as one record for map tasks. + +$H3 How do I update counters in streaming applications? + +A streaming process can use the stderr to emit counter information. `reporter:counter:,,` should be sent to stderr to update the counter. + +$H3 How do I update status in streaming applications? + +A streaming process can use the stderr to emit status information. To set a status, `reporter:status:` should be sent to stderr. + +$H3 How do I get the Job variables in a streaming job's mapper/reducer? + +See [Configured Parameters](./MapReduceTutorial.html#Configured_Parameters). During the execution of a streaming job, the names of the "mapred" parameters are transformed. The dots ( . ) become underscores ( \_ ). For example, mapreduce.job.id becomes mapreduce\_job\_id and mapreduce.job.jar becomes mapreduce\_job\_jar. In your code, use the parameter names with the underscores.
