Sean Owen commented on SPARK-1529: ---------------------------------- OK, but, why do these files *have* to go on a non-local disk? It sounds like you're saying Spark doesn't work at all on MapR right now, but that can't be the case. They *can* go on a non-local disk, I'm sure. What's the value of that, given that Spark is transporting the files itself? Still, as you say, this proprietary setup works already through the java.io+NFS and HDFS APIs, with no change. If it's just not as fast, is that a problem that Spark should be solving? Just don't do it. Or it's up to the vendor to optimize. > Support setting spark.local.dirs to a hadoop FileSystem > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-1529 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1529 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Spark Core > Reporter: Patrick Wendell > Assignee: Cheng Lian > > In some environments, like with MapR, local volumes are accessed through the > Hadoop filesystem interface.
