Tathagata Das updated SPARK-10649: ---------------------------------- Target Version/s: 1.6.0, 1.5.1 (was: 1.6.0) > Streaming jobs unexpectedly inherits job group, job descriptions from context > starting thread > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-10649 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10649 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Streaming > Affects Versions: 1.3.1, 1.4.1, 1.5.0 > Reporter: Tathagata Das > Assignee: Tathagata Das > Fix For: 1.6.0 > > > The job group, and job descriptions information is passed through thread > local properties, and get inherited by child threads. In case of spark > streaming, the streaming jobs inherit these properties from the thread that > called streamingContext.start(). This may not make sense. > 1. Job group: This is mainly used for cancelling a group of jobs together. It > does not make sense to cancel streaming jobs like this, as the effect will be > unpredictable. And its not a valid usecase any way, to cancel a streaming > context, call streamingContext.stop() > 2. Job description: This is used to pass on nice text descriptions for jobs > to show up in the UI. The job description of the thread that calls > streamingContext.start() is not useful for all the streaming jobs, as it does > not make sense for all of the streaming jobs to have the same description, > and the description may or may not be related to streaming. -- 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
