Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-6716: ----------------------------------- Assignee: Apache Spark (was: Josh Rosen) > Change SparkContext.DRIVER_IDENTIFIER from '<driver>' to 'driver' > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-6716 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6716 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Spark Core > Reporter: Josh Rosen > Assignee: Apache Spark > > Currently, the driver's executorId is set to {{<driver>}}. This choice of ID > was present in older Spark versions, but it has started to cause problems now > that executorIds are used in more contexts, such as Ganglia metric names or > driver thread-dump links the web UI. The angle brackets must be escaped when > embedding this ID in XML or as part of URLs and this has led to multiple > problems: > - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6484 > - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4313 > The simplest solution seems to be to change this id to something that does > not contain any special characters, such as {{driver}}. > I'm not sure whether we can perform this change in a patch release, since > this ID may be considered a stable API by metrics users, but it's probably > okay to do this in a major release as long as we document it in the release > notes. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
