Karan Mehta commented on PHOENIX-4489: -------------------------------------- Yes [~jmahonin] The issue exists in {{PhoenixInputFormat}} class in phoenix-hive integration too. I will fix both of them as a part of second patch. > HBase Connection leak in Phoenix MR Jobs > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: PHOENIX-4489 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-4489 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Karan Mehta > Assignee: Karan Mehta > Attachments: PHOENIX-4489.001.patch > > > Phoenix MR jobs uses a custom class {{PhoenixInputFormat}} to determine the > splits and the parallelism of the work. The class directly opens up a HBase > connection, which is not closed after the usage. Independently running MR > jobs should not have any concern, however jobs that run through Phoenix-Spark > can cause leak issues if this is left unclosed (since those jobs run as a > part of same JVM). > Apart from this, the connection should be instantiated with > {{HBaseFactoryProvider.getHConnectionFactory()}} instead of the default one. > It can be useful if a separate client is trying to run jobs and wants to > provide a custom implementation of {{HConnection}}. > [~jmahonin] Any ideas? > [~jamestaylor] [~vincentpoon] Any concerns around this? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
