Matt Matolcsi created SPARK-26052: ------------------------------------- Summary: Spark should output a _SUCCESS file for every partition correctly written Key: SPARK-26052 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-26052 Project: Spark Issue Type: Bug Components: Block Manager Affects Versions: 2.3.0 Reporter: Matt Matolcsi
When writing a set of partitioned Parquet files to HDFS using dataframe.write.parquet(), a _SUCCESS file is written to hdfs://path/to/table after successful completion, though the actual Parquet files will end up in hdfs://path/to/table/partition_key1=val1/partition_key2=val2/.... If partitions are written out one at a time (e.g., an hourly ETL), the _SUCCESS file is overwritten by each subsequent run and information on what partitions were correctly written is lost. I would like to be able to keep track of what partitions were successfully written in HDFS. I think this could be done by writing the _SUCCESS files to the same partition directories where the Parquet files reside, i.e., hdfs://path/to/table/partition_key1=val1/partition_key2=val2/.... Since https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-13207 has been resolved, I don't think this should break partition discovery. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
