Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-21960:
------------------------------------
Assignee: Apache Spark
> Spark Streaming Dynamic Allocation should respect spark.executor.instances
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-21960
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21960
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: DStreams
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: Karthik Palaniappan
> Assignee: Apache Spark
> Priority: Minor
>
> This check enforces that spark.executor.instances (aka --num-executors) is
> either unset or explicitly set to 0.
> https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/v2.2.0/streaming/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/streaming/scheduler/ExecutorAllocationManager.scala#L207
> If spark.executor.instances is unset, the check is fine, and the property
> defaults to 2. Spark requests the cluster manager for 2 executors to start
> with, then adds/removes executors appropriately.
> However, if you explicitly set it to 0, the check also succeeds, but Spark
> never asks the cluster manager for any executors. When running on YARN, I
> repeatedly saw:
> {code:java}
> 17/08/22 19:35:21 WARN org.apache.spark.scheduler.cluster.YarnScheduler:
> Initial job has not accepted any resources; check your cluster UI to ensure
> that workers are registered and have sufficient resources
> 17/08/22 19:35:36 WARN org.apache.spark.scheduler.cluster.YarnScheduler:
> Initial job has not accepted any resources; check your cluster UI to ensure
> that workers are registered and have sufficient resources
> 17/08/22 19:35:51 WARN org.apache.spark.scheduler.cluster.YarnScheduler:
> Initial job has not accepted any resources; check your cluster UI to ensure
> that workers are registered and have sufficient resources
> {code}
> I noticed that at least Google Dataproc and Ambari explicitly set
> spark.executor.instances to a positive number, meaning that to use dynamic
> allocation, you would have to edit spark-defaults.conf to remove the
> property. That's obnoxious.
> In addition, in Spark 2.3, spark-submit will refuse to accept "0" as a value
> for --num-executors or --conf spark.executor.instances:
> https://github.com/apache/spark/commit/0fd84b05dc9ac3de240791e2d4200d8bdffbb01a#diff-63a5d817d2d45ae24de577f6a1bd80f9
> It is much more reasonable for Streaming DRA to use spark.executor.instances,
> just like Core DRA. I'll open a pull request to remove the check if there are
> no objections.
