Configuring RapidMiner Radoop Connections in RapidMiner Studio

Starting from RapidMiner 9.10, Radoop connections can be saved as connection objects to repositories and projects, enabling easy sharing and collaboration for Radoop processes, as well asRapidMiner AI Hub executions.

Creating, configuring and using Radoop connections becomes a two-step task:

Creating, configuring and testing the Radoop connection

您可以配置RapidMiner R之间的连接adoop in RapidMiner Studio and one or more Hadoop clusters from theManage Radoop ConnectionsandConnection Settingsdialogs. You can access these dialogs from theConnectionsmenu, theHadoop Dataview, or theDesignview. After configuring and saving the connection entries, you can test them before deployment. The test validates the connection to the cluster and verifies that the connection settings comply with the RapidMiner Radoop requirements described in the section onprerequisites.

There are three methods to create a Radoop connection. We strongly recommend the first.

  1. If you have access to cluster manager software (Apache Ambari or Cloudera Manager), we strongly recommend using theImport from Manager IconImport from Cluster Manageroption. This method is the simplest one.

  2. If you do not use or do not have access to a cluster manager, but can ask for theclient configuration files, then use theImport Wizard IconImport Hadoop Configuration Filesoption.

  3. Otherwise, you always have the option toManual Connection IconAdd Connection Manually. This last option also allows you to import a Radoop connection that someone shared with you byclickingon theEdit XML...按钮, once theConnection Settingsdialog appears.

Note:When configuring RapidMiner Radoop, you must provide the internal domain name or IP address of the master node (that is, the domain name or IP address that the master node knows about itself). See thenetworking setup overviewfor details on how to ensure that your data is safe from unauthorized access.

Basic RapidMiner Radoop connection configuration

Once RapidMiner Radoop is installed, you can create a connection.

  1. Restart RapidMiner Studio so that it recognizes the RapidMiner Radoop extension. Once it restarts, you will see a newEdit data connection IconManage Radoop Connectionsoption in theConnectionsmenu:

  2. Select theEdit data connection IconManage Radoop Connectionsmenu item and theManage Radoop Connectionswindow opens:

    For more details on this dialog, seeManage Radoop Connectionssection below.

  3. Click onNew Connection IconNew Connection按钮and chooseManual Connection IconAdd Connection Manually:

    If you wish to create the connection by importing client configuration files or by using a cluster management service, read theImporting Hadoop configurationsection.

  4. You can edit the connection properties in theConnection Settingsdialog.

    You can provide the name of the connection at the top of the dialog. Additional settings can be configured by selecting the appropriate tab on the left side. Complete the required connection fields listed below. Note that DNS and reverse DNS should work for all specified addresses, so the client machine must have access to the network name resolution system of the cluster or be able to resolve the addresses locally.

    Tab Field Description
    Global Hadoop Version The distribution that defines the Hadoop version type for this connection.
    Hadoop NameNode Address Address (usually hostname) of the node running the NameNode service.
    Hadoop Resource Manager Address Address (usually hostname) of the node running the Resource Manager service.
    Hive Hive Server Address Address (usually hostname) of the node running the Hive Server or the Impala Server.
    Spark Spark Version Spark version available on the cluster.
    Spark Assembly Jar Location / Spark Archive (or libs) path The HDFS location or local path (on all cluster nodes) of the Spark Assembly Jar file / Spark Jar files.

    For further details, seeAdvanced connection settingssection below.

    ClickOKOKto create the connection entry.

  5. ClickSave IconSaveto add the entry to the available connections.

  6. Test the connectionbetween RapidMiner Radoop and the Hadoop cluster. If necessary, and with the assistance of your Hadoop administrator, set theadvanced settingsbased on thedistribution specific notes.

Your connection settings are saved in a file calledradoop_connections.xmlin your.RapidMinerdirectory.

导入一个connection

Configuring a connection manually can be cumbersome for a more complicated cluster. In this case using one of the connection import features is recommended. There are two options: you can create a connection using the cluster's client configuration files, or by providing the URL and credentials for the cluster's management service (Cloudera Manager or Ambari).

你可以吧te Radoop connections by setting up its parameters from client configuration files. To do so, chooseImport Wizard IconImport Hadoop Configuration Filesoption when adding a new connection. Set the location of the file in the following dialog:

You can select one or more folder(s) or compressed file(s) (such asziportar.gz) containing the configuration XML documents, or you can simply import singlexmlfiles. You can easily get hold of these files by using the distributor’sHadoop management tool. ClickImport Configuration IconImport Configurationand wait until a popup window shows the result of the import process:

  • Success IconSuccess:You can go on with the next step.
  • Warning IconWarning:Some fields will be missing, these can be provided in the next step.Show Details IconShow details按钮informs you about the problem(s).
  • Failure IconFailure:You need to goBack IconBackand choose the appropriate file(s).

ClickingNext IconNextwill lead you to theConnection Settingsdialog, where you will find all the properties that could be imported automatically. Some required fields might still be missing. The editor highlights them with a red border and an error message. If a tab contains fields with missing values, it is marked with an error sign.

你可以吧te a connection by providing the URL and the credentials for the cluster’s management service. In this case, select theImport from Manager IconImport from Cluster Manageroption when adding a new connection, to obtain the following dialog:

The following fields need to be filled in:

  • Cluster Manager URL: The URL of the cluster’s management service. For HDP-like connections (HDP, HDInsight, IOP, IBM, etc.) this is usually Apache Ambari, which usually runs by default on port 8080 (except for HDInsight, where usually no port has to be provided). For CDH connections, this is Cloudera Manager, running by default on port 7180. Please take care of the protocol prefix (usually http, https). If the protocol is missing, “http://” will be used automatically.
  • Username: The username for the cluster manager. Please note that the user needs to have privileges for the client configuration. Read-only permissions are sufficient for retrieving most connection properties. Using an admin user is not required.
  • Password: The password for the provided cluster manager user.

After filling in the fields, clickImport Configuration IconImport Configuration开始导入过程。如果集群管理r manages more than one cluster, the following input dialog will pop up. Select the name of the cluster you want to connect to.

The connection import can have two outcomes:

  • Success IconSuccess:You can go on with the next step.
  • Failure IconFailure:You need to goBack IconBackand fix the URL or the credentials. The detailed error can be seen if you click theShow Details按钮.
    • If theFailureis due to an untrusted certificate, user will be notified and shown the certificate details and be provided the option to trust the certificate and continue with importing from the Cluster Manager.

When the connection is successfully imported, theConnection Settingsdialog will pop up. Here you can change the name of the connection, and complete the connection configuration manually.

  • A required field with missing values is highlighted with a red border and an error message. A tab containing fields with missing values is marked with an error sign.
  • A field whose default value may need to be changed is highlighted with an orange border, and the tab is marked with a warning sign. Please note that the Hadoop version is automatically set to HDP if you used Apache Ambari as the cluster manager. In case of IBM and ODP distributions, for example, the Hadoop version needs to be changed manually.

During Radoop connection creation from an import duplicate properties maybe detected.
If a duplicate property is detected, deconfliction with the previous property value works as follows.
Deconfliction is based on property origin and is resolved in the following decending order:
- yarn-site origin
- core-site origin
- other origins in the order of processed

Priority within same origin, follows sequential read ordering.

If a property value is replaced, an INFO level log is provided stating what key, value/origin was and what value/origin is now being applied.

Manage Radoop Connections window

The Manage Radoop Connections window shows your already configured connections and allows you to edit them, or create and test new connections:

This window consists of 3 panels. The upper left panel lists all known connection entries. For each entry, one or more icons may be present showing some additional information, namely:

  • Spark IconSpark is configured for this connection
  • Impala IconThe connection uses Impala as query engine
  • Lock IconConnection to a secure cluster

The basic properties of the currently selected connection are gathered on the right-hand side panel. There are also buttons executing several actions available on the selected connection:

  • Configure IconConfigure...: Opens the Connection Settings dialog where you can configure the connection properties. Check theAdvanced connection settingssection for more details.
  • Save IconSave: Saves the currently displayed connection.
  • Save As IconSave As...:保存当前显示connecti的副本on. Useful for saving a slightly modified connection while keeping the original entry.
  • Export IconExport...: Exports the selected connection to a repository or project. Seethe next chapterfor details.
  • Quick Test IconQuick Test: Runs a Quick Test on the currently displayed connection.
  • Full Test IconFull Test...: Runs a Full Integration Test on this connection. More information on the connection tests can be found in the测试RapidMiner Radoop连接section.
  • Rename IconRename Action: Renames the current connection. Please note that all connection names should be unique.

The lower panel shows logs of the running tests. Several actions can be performed on this panel too:

  • Extract logsExtract logs...: This action creates a bundled zip file containing all relevant logs of your recent Radoop-related activities. See relatedsectionfor more details.
  • Clear logClear logs: Clears the connection log field.
  • Stop IconStop Test: The Stop Test action will halt the currently running test execution (see the测试RapidMiner Radoop连接section).

Testing RapidMiner Radoop cluster connections

RapidMiner Radoop's built-in test functions help with troubleshooting before trouble begins. These tests can be executed from theManage Radoop Connectionswindow, or as part of a RapidMiner processusing theRadoop Connection Testoperator.

Basic connection test

Click theQuick Test IconQuick Test按钮in theManage Radoop Connectionswindow to test the connection to the cluster. Through a series of simple tests to different components (APIs) on the cluster, the test verifies that the cluster is running and that the RapidMiner Radoop client can access it. You can stop the test anytime by clicking theStop IconStop Test按钮.

Full connection tests

Once your test succeeds, run a complete test (which may take several minutes) by clicking theFull Test IconFull Test...按钮. It's possible to customize a full connection test by clicking theCustomize iconCustomize...按钮. In this panel you can enable or disable tests, change the timeout and enable or disable the cleaning after the tests. These values are reset to the defaults after closing theManage Radoop Connectionswindow. ClickRunRunto start the test.

The full test initiates several jobs and applications on the cluster and then checks the results. By successfully and extensively exercising RapidMiner Radoop interactions with your cluster, you can feel confident in your RapidMiner Radoop process design and execution.

In addition to testing connections when you first create a RapidMiner Radoop configuration, you can use theFull Testif you have an error in process execution or a change in the cluster. The output of the full test results can help identify the root cause of the problem for easier troubleshooting. You can stop the Full Test anytime by clicking theStop IconStop Test按钮. Stopping the current test process may take some time.

Note:The cluster connection initial test also starts automatically in the background when you open a process containing a RapidMinerRadoop Nestoperator (indicated by the status bar in the bottom right corner of the RapidMiner Studio screen).

Radoop Connection Test operator

Running connection tests using theRadoop Connection Testoperator is especially useful when validating connections in RapidMiner AI Hub. The operator can be placed inside aRadoop Nestoperator and will run connection tests against the Radoop connection specified in the Radoop Nest (both legacy and repository or projects based connections are supported).

Users can select which test set to run. Similarly to the Full Test functionality in theManage Radoop Connectionswindow explained above, further customization of tests is possible by setting theTest Suiteparameter of the operator toCustomized Integration Testand then selecting the preferred tests.

Test results are provided as an ExampleSet on the operator'soutport, while troubleshooting logs are packaged into a zip file on the operator'slogport. This compressed log bundle can be conveniently written to a project or repository for easy retrieval even in secure enterprise environments.

Check out the operator's tutorial process for a useful example.

Advanced connection settings

You can use theConnection Settingsdialog to edit the connection parameters. For example, you can change port numbers or define arbitrary parameters for Hadoop and Hive using key-value pairs. Do not modify the connection settings without first consulting with your organization's IT administrator. To open theConnection Settingsdialog, click theConfigure IconConfigure...按钮from theManage Radoop Connectionswindow.

Note: The fields displayed depend on the selections (for example, the selected Hadoop version). Also, some fields prepopulate based on the Hadoop version selection from the basic settings. If a field isboldin the window, it is required.

TheConnection Settingsdialog has multiple tabs. The following tables describe the fields in each tab. For advanced configuration details related to your environment, see thedistribution specific notes.

Global

The client user that runs Radoop must have permission to create this directory if it does not exist, and/or must have read and write permission on the directory.
Advanced Hadoop Parameters Key-value properties to customize the Hadoop connection and Radoop's Yarn/MapReduce jobs. Some connections require certain advanced parameters. For detailed information, see thedistribution specific notes.

Spark

Field Description
Spark Version Spark Version available on the cluster. For more information on usingSparkoperators, see theConfiguring Sparksection.
Use default Spark path Use the default Spark Assembly / Archive path for the selected Hadoop version. Note that your cluster may have different settings, in which case you must disable this setting and configure the path properly. Also note that multiples Spark versions may be installed on the cluster, and this heuristic may only pick one of them.
Assembly Jar Location / Spark Archive (or libs) path The HDFS location or local path (on all cluster nodes) of the Spark Assembly Jar file / Spark Jar files.
Spark Resource Allocation Policy The resource allocation policy for Spark jobs. The default -Dynamic Resource Allocationstarting from 8.1.1 andStatic, Heuristic Configurationin 8.1.0 - is typically applicable. See moreSpark policy information.

Spark Memory Monitor Lookback Seconds Window size in number of seconds the Spark GC usage monitor will analyze.
Advanced Spark Parameters Key-value properties that customize RapidMiner Radoop's Spark jobs. See theinstructions for configuring Spark.

Hive

Field Description
Hive Version Select the appropriate Data Warehouse System — HiveServer2 (Hive 0.13 or newer) or Impala. Alternatively, you can selectCustom HiveServer2and provide your own Hive jars.
Custom Hive Lib Directory Only with Custom Hiveserver2 selected. Select a directory that contains the libraries (JAR files) needed to connect to the cluster.
Hive High Availability Check this box if Hive High Availability is activated for this cluster (provided that HiveServer access is coordinated by ZooKeeper).
Hive Server Address/Impala Server Address Address (usually hostname) of the node running the Hive Server or the Impala Server.
Hive Port/Impala Port Port of the Hive Server or Impala Server.
Database name Name of the database to connect to.
File Format for Hive Storage format default for Hive connections. The storage format is generally defined by the Radoop Nest parameterhive_file_format, but this property sets a default for this parameter in new Radoop Nests. It also defines the default settings for new table import on the Hadoop Data View. 'Default format' means use Hive server default (usually TEXTFILE).
File Format for Impala Only with Impala selected. Storage format default for Impala connections. The storage format is generally defined by the Radoop Nest parameterimpala_file_format, but this property sets a default for this parameter in new Radoop Nests. It also defines the default settings for new table import on the Hadoop Data View. 'Default format' means use Hive server default (usually TEXTFILE).
JDBC URL Postfix Optional postfix for the JDBC URL. The default is "auth=noSasl" for Impala connections.
Username Username for connecting to the specified database. The default is "hive" for all HiveServer2 version connections. This user should have access to theHDFS directorythat Radoop uses for storing files temporarily. If this directory is located in an encryption zone, the user should also have permissions to access the encryption zone key.
Password Password for connecting to the specified database. RapidMiner Radoop uses thecipher.keyfile to encrypt the password inradoop_connections.xml.
Hive Principal Only with Kerberos security enabled. Principal of the Hive service. The format is primary[/]@, where primary is usually the user name, instance is optional, and REALM is the Kerberos realm. Do not use the _HOST keyword as the instance. If Hive is not configured for Kerberos but uses another authentication mechanism (e.g., LDAP), leave this field empty. Example: hive/node02.www.turtlecreekpls.com@RAPIDMINER.COM.
SASL QoP Level Level of SASL Quality of Protection. This setting must be the same as the cluster setting. (To find the cluster setting, find the value of hive.server2.thrift.sasl.qop in hive-site.xml; the default is “auth”.)
Table prefix Default Hive temporary table prefix for new processes. You can specify this prefix as a parameter of a Radoop Nest operator. This property only defaults this parameter to the specified value, so different clients or users may easily differentiate their temporary objects on the cluster.
Hive command timeout Timeout, for simple Hive commands that should return, in seconds. Zero means default value (30). This setting defines the time after which Radoop may cancel an atomic operation on the cluster, since the command should finish in a few seconds at most. You may increase this value, if the connection latency is high or may vary in a large interval.
Connection pool size Size of the Hive JDBC connection pool. Increase it if you want to run many operations in parallel (e.g. on RapidMiner Server).
Connection pool timeout Timeout, in seconds, for waiting for an available connection.
Hive on Spark / Tez container reuse Check this box if you would like to benefit fromHive on Spark / Hive on Tez container reuse.
容器池固定大小 Number of Hive on Spark containers if container reuse is enabled for the connection. Container reuse makes Hive on Spark queries run faster by removing the container start time overhead. Please be aware that containers are continuously reserving cluster resources, even when there are no running queries. You can use the idle time setting below to close unused containers and free up resources after an idle period. It is recommended to monitor your cluster resources to find the right setting. If set to 0, an estimated value will be used based on cluster resources.
容器池超时 Timeout for waiting for an available container, in seconds. Enter 0 to wait for resources indefinitely.
Container idle time Time after idle Hive on Spark / Hive on Tez containers will be closed, in seconds. Enter 0 to disable closing idle containers.
UDFs are installed manually Check this box if the Radoop UDFs are installed on the cluster manually. More information on the manual UDF installation can be found on theOperation and Maintenancepage.
Use custom database for UDFs Check this box if a custom database should be used for storing and accessing Radoop UDFs. This is useful when more users (having different project databases and granted privileges) wish to use Radoop. This common database should be accessible by all of them. The UDFs can still be automatically or manually created.
Custom database for UDFs Only when "Use custom database for UDFs" is checked. Define the database dedicated for storing Radoop UDFs (see above). The database must exist.
Advanced Hive Parameters Key-value properties to customize the behavior of Hive.

Radoop Proxy

Field Description
Use Radoop Proxy Check this box if you want to access the Hadoop Cluster through aRadoop Proxy.
Radoop Proxy Connection Only when Radoop Proxy is enabled. This field consists of two dropdown selectors, which together define the Radoop Proxy used for accessing the cluster. The first one defines the location of the Radoop Proxy. Can be local or one of the configured RapidMiner Server repositories. The second one is the identifier of the Radoop Proxy.

RapidMiner Server

This tab contains some multi-user configuration settings that affect the execution on RapidMiner Server. For more information and best practice solutions, see therelevant sectionsofInstalling Radoop on Serverpage.

Field Description
Enable impersonation on Server Check this box if you want to use an impersonated (proxy) Hadoop user on RapidMiner Server.
Server Principal Only with Kerberos security and Server impersonation enabled. Principal used by RapidMiner Server to access the cluster. The format is primary[/]@, where primary is usually the user name, instance is optional, and REALM is the Kerberos realm. Example: user/server.www.turtlecreekpls.com@RAPIDMINER.COM. Please note that this setting only affects the execution on Server.
Server Keytab File Only with Kerberos security and Server impersonation enabled. Path of the server keytab file on the server machine.
Impersonated user for local testing Only when impersonation on Server is enabled. Server user to impersonate for testing Server connections locally from Studio.
Access Whitelist Regex for Server users who has access to this connection. Leave it empty or use '*' to enable access to all users.

XML connection editor

The Radoop connection XML can be edited manually by clicking theEdit XML...按钮on the Connection Settings dialog. Please note that this feature should be used carefully as it's easy to make mistakes in a connection entry through the XML editor. The main purpose of the editor is to make connection sharing and copy-pasting some parts of it (e.g.Advanced Hadoop Parameters) much easier. When you close the window with the OK button, your changes appear in the fields of the Connection Settings dialog.

Note:Adding aseparate key attributetotag in the XML editor will have no effect. It can only be added inradoop_connections.xml, manually.

Configuring non-default properties

If your Hadoop cluster uses non-default properties, additional key-value pairs may be required. Cluster management tools like Cloudera Manager and Ambari allow you todownload theclient configuration files. You may have to add cluster connection-related properties from these files to theAdvanced Hadoop Parameterssection of theHadooptab. See below for single properties that occur to be (re)set frequently, and more complex examples describing the properties required to connect to a cluster with High Availability (HA) enabled. The following tables list the keys of the potentially required client-side settings. The values should be set to the appropriate property values from the client configuration files. Note that not all keys related to these features may be required, the required set of key-value pairs depend on your cluster settings.

Key Description
dfs.client.use.datanode.hostname 表明客户年代hould use datanode hostnames when connecting to datanodes. Setting it to true may allow to use the public network interface of the datanodes instead of the private one. By default, the property value retrieved from the cluster is used. If not properly set, DataNode networking test (part of the full connection test) will show a warning. Example: seeCDH Quickstart VM
mapreduce.job.queuename Queue to which a job is submitted. The system must be configured with this predefined queue, and access must be granted for submitting jobs to it. When using other than the default queue, it must be defined here explicitly. Example:low_priority

Configuring the connection to an HA HDFS-enabled cluster only requires that you specify the proper Hadoop settings in theAdvanced Hadoop Parameterssection of theHadooptab.

The HA feature eliminates any single point of failure for a cluster by providing a standby (in addition to active) NameNode. HA implements manual switchover and automatic failover to provide continuous availability. The following table lists the settings required for the RapidMiner Radoop client to connect to the cluster. These properties must be configured in each cluster node configuration file. For further details, see your Hadoop documentation.

Key Description
fs.defaultFS(orfs.default.name) The default path for Hadoop FS typically contains the NameService ID of the HA-enabled cluster. Example:hdfs://nameservice1
dfs.nameservices The logical name for the service. Example:nameservice1
dfs.ha.namenodes. Comma-separated list of unique NameNode identifiers. Example:namenode152,namenode92
dfs.namenode.rpc-address.. RPC address for each NameNode to listen on. Example:node01.example.com:8020
dfs.client.failover.proxy.provider. Class HDFS clients use to contact the active NameNode. Currently there is only one option shipped with Hadoop. Example:org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.ha.ConfiguredFailoverProxyProvider

Setting the connection to an HA Resource Manager-enabled cluster only requires that you specify the proper Hadoop settings in theAdvanced Hadoop Parameterssection of theHadooptab.

The Resource Manager (RM) HA feature removes a single point of failure (adds redundancy) using an Active/Standby RM pair. The following table lists the settings required for the RapidMiner Radoop client to connect to the cluster. These properties must be configured in each cluster node configuration file. For further details, see your Hadoop documentation.

Key Description
yarn.resourcemanager.ha.enabled Enables Resource Manager High Availability.
yarn.resourcemanager.ha.automatic-failover.enabled Enables automatic failover. By default, only enabled when HA is enabled.
yarn.resourcemanager.ha.automatic-failover.embedded When automatic failover is enabled, uses embedded leader-elector to pick the active RM. By default, only enabled when HA is enabled.
yarn.resourcemanager.zk-address Address of the ZK-quorum. Used both for the state-store and embedded leader-election.
yarn.resourcemanager.cluster-id Identifies the cluster. Used by the elector to ensure an RM does not take over as active for another cluster. Example:yarnRM
yarn.resourcemanager.ha.id Identifies the RM in the ensemble. Optional, but if set, ensure that all the RMs have a unique ID.
yarn.resourcemanager.ha.rm-ids Comma-separated list of logical IDs for the RMs. Example:rm274,rm297
yarn.resourcemanager.address. Service address for each RM ID.
yarn.resourcemanager.scheduler.address. Scheduler address for each RM ID.
yarn.resourcemanager.resource-tracker.address. Resource tracker address for each RM ID.
yarn.resourcemanager.admin.address. RM admin address for each RM ID.
yarn.resourcemanager.store.class The class to use as the persistent store for RM recovery.

配置的火花RapidMiner Radoop connection

By configuring Spark for a RapidMiner Radoop connection, you enable the Spark operators. See the exact Spark version requirements for each operator on theInstalling Radoop on Studiopage.

To enable Spark, select a validSpark versionfrom the dropdown list in theConnection Settingsdialog.

You must provide the following mandatory inputs on theSparktab of theConnection Settingsdialog:

Field Description
Spark Version Dropdown list to select the version of Spark your cluster supports.
  • If Spark is not on the cluster or unneeded, select None.
  • Spark 1.6.x, 2.0.x, 2.1.x, 2.2.x or 2.4.x select the corresponding value.
  • Spark 2.3.x users will need to select based on the Spark patch version number. Spark 2.3.0 will be Spark 2.3.0, for all other 2.3.x versions select Spark 2.3.1+.
Assembly Jar location / Spark Archive (or libs) path The HDFS or local path of the distribution-specific Spark assembly JAR file / Spark JAR files. If you provide a local path then it must be the same on every node in your cluster. Specifying the local path is recommended if Spark is automatically installed (e.g. with Cloudera Manager or Ambari) on the cluster. For some Hadoop versions, the pre-built Spark assembly JAR can be downloaded fromthe Apache Spark download page. Some vendors (like Cloudera) provide a distribution-specific Spark assembly JAR. For the HDFS path of the JAR, contact your Hadoop administrator. For example, to install Spark 1.6 manually, refer to theSpark requirements section. If you followed the instructions there, your assembly jar is at the following location on the HDFS:hdfs:///tmp/spark/spark-assembly-1.6.0-hadoop2.6.0.jar
Spark resource allocation policy Spark needs specification of the cluster resources it is allowed use. See the Spark resource allocationpolicy descriptions
Advanced Spark Parameters Key-value pairs that can be applied to a Spark-on-YARN job. If the change has no effect on your Spark job, most likely it is ignored by YARN itself. To check the properties in theapplication log, setspark.logConfto true.

Configuring custom PySpark/SparkR archives for Spark

Radoop is shipped with PySpark and SparkR archives for each minor (x.y) Spark version to supportSpark Scriptingoperator. Using these archives for all sub-versions (x.y.z) is sufficient in most cases. However certain Spark minor versions (e.g. 2.2 and 2.3) shipped by Hadoop distributions have multiple incompatible patched versions which behave differently from the aspect of Python/R process <-> JVM communication. These minor versions cannot be tackled by shipping a single set of archives. Hence custom PySpark and SparkR archive options were introduced on the connection editor. When these options are enabled, Radoop uses the user-provided archives to executeSpark Scriptoperator, instead of the ones bundled with Radoop. These archives are usually shipped with the Hadoop distribution together with Spark so typically located close to Spark installation folder. This functionality is handled by the following extra settings:

Field Description
Use custom PySpark archive Check this box if you want to provide your ownPySparkarchives.
Custom PySpark archive paths Only when "Use custom PySpark archive" option is enabled.Set of archives used asPySparklibraries forPySparkjob submissions. You will typically need to provide two archives here, pyspark.zip and py4j-*.zip. The exact name and access path of these files depend on the Hadoop and Spark version of your cluster. Since you will need to provide at least two items, this parameter accepts multiple values. Each entry can be provided either as anHDFSlocation (hdfs:// protocol), as a file which is available on all cluster nodes at the same location (local:// protocol), or as a file on the client machine (file:// protocol). In a sample HDP 3 environment the necessary entries using local paths arelocal:///usr/hdp/current/spark2-client/python/lib/pyspark.zipandlocal:///usr/hdp/current/spark2-client/python/lib/py4j-0.10.7-src.zip.
Use custom SparkR archive Check this box if you want to provide your ownSparkRarchive.
Custom SparkR archive path Only when "Use custom SparkR archive" option is enabled.Archive used as theSparkRlibrary forSparkRjob submissions. This path can be provided either as anHDFSlocation (hdfs:// protocol) or as a file on the client machine (file:// protocol).WARNING! Specifying archives available on the cluster nodes (local:// protocol) is not supported for this parameter.Therefore if your archive is accessible on a cluster node, you will first need to upload it to HDFS, and use the HDFS location for this parameter. In a sample HDP 3 environment this file is located at/usr/hdp/current/spark2-client/R/lib/sparkr.zip. In the example shown below, this file was uploaded tohdfs:///tmp/sparkr.zipHDFS location, which is then referenced by this parameter.

Spark resource allocation policies

RapidMiner Radoop supports the following resource allocation policies:

Dynamic Resource Allocation

Static, Heuristic Configuration

  • This is the default policy in 8.1.0 and previous versions. If you use this option, you do not need to set any advanced resource allocation settings. TheResource Allocation %field sets the percentage of cluster resources (cluster memory, number of cores) to be used for a Spark job. Note that if you set this value too high, other jobs on the cluster might suffer. The default value is 70%.

Static, Default Configuration

  • A policy that uses Spark's default settings for resource allocation. This value is very low and may not support a real cluster, but it may be a viable option for VMs/sandboxes.

Static, Manual Configuration

  • This policy requires that you set the following properties underAdvanced Spark Parameterson theSparktab of theConnection Settingsdialog. TheSpark documentationdescribes each property. (The corresponding Spark on YARN command line arguments are shown in parentheses.)
    • spark.executor.cores(--executor-cores)
    • spark.executor.instances(--num-executors)
    • spark.executor.memory(——executor-memory)
    • (optional)spark.driver.memory(--driver-memory)

Note: Because ofSPARK-6962, RapidMiner Radoop changes the default value ofspark.shuffle.blockTransferServicetonioinstead ofnetty. To override this setting, in theAdvanced Spark Parametersfield configure the keyspark.shuffle.blockTransferServiceto the valuenetty. Starting from 1.6.0, this setting is ignored by Spark, theBlockTransferServiceis alwaysnetty.

Hive on Spark & Hive on Tez container reuse

Reusing the containers of the Hive execution engine can dramatically speed up Radoop processes, especially if there are lots of Hive-only tasks. It is achieved by keeping a number of Spark / Tez containers (applications) in running state for executing Hive queries. Keep in mind that these containers will use cluster resources even if there are no running processes. Radoop tries to estimate the optimal number of containers by default, but it also can be changed to a fix number in the settings (see below). Idle containers are automatically closed after a timeout.

To use this feature, your cluster must support Hive on Spark or Hive on Tez, and in your connection have to sethive.execution.enginetosparkortezinAdvanced Hive Parametersand checkHive on Spark / Tez container reusecheckbox (this is the default value):

A number of global Radoop settings can be used to control the container reuse behaviour. You may want to test different settings to use your cluster optimally, seeRadoop Settingsfor details.

As Hive on Spark / Hive on Tez containers are kept running and reserving cluster resources, you may easily run out of memory/cores on small clusters (e.g. quickstart VMs) if you run other MapReduce, Spark or Tez jobs. To prevent this situation, Radoop automatically stops these containers before starting a MapReduce or Spark job. (Idle containers would have been closed anyway, but this enables closing them before the idle timeout, right when the resources are needed.)

Impala connections

If your are configuring an Impala connection someAdvanced Hadoop Parametersneed to be added manually. If you forget to add any of those, a warning message will warn you about the missing ones. TheAdd Required Entries按钮adds the keys of these properties to the list, but their values must be set manually according to the cluster configuration.

When upgrading RapidMiner Studio or Server, further settings may become mandatory, which could mean that the Impala connections may have to be updated with the new required advanced settings.

Exporting Radoop connections to a repository or project

Once the Radoop connection is ready and tested, it can be exported to a repository or project using theExport IconExport...action on theManage Radoop Connections...dialog.

Now the Radoop connection is ready to use. Please follow ourRadoop basics guidefor more information. To fine-tune exported connections, we recommend usingconnection overrides.
