FAIR scheduler in Spark Streaming

[Sebastian Piu]

Hi,

I'm trying to get *FAIR *scheduling to work in a spark streaming app
(1.6.0).

I've found a previous mailing list where it is indicated to do:

dstream.foreachRDD { rdd =>
rdd.sparkContext.setLocalProperty("spark.scheduler.pool", "pool1") // set
the pool rdd.count() // or whatever job }

This seems to work, in the sense that If I have 5 foreachRDD in my code,
each one is sent to a different queue, but they still get executed one
after the other rather than at the same time.
Am I missing something?

The scheduler config and scheduler mode are being picked alright as I can
see them on the Spark UI

//Context config

*spark.scheduler.mode=FAIR*

Here is my scheduler config:


*  
FAIR 2
1  
FAIR 1
0  
FAIR 1
0  
FAIR 1
0  
FAIR 2
1 *


Any idea on what could be wrong?

The number of concurrent Streaming job is controlled by
"spark.streaming.concurrentJobs". It's 1 by default. However, you need to
keep in mind that setting it to a bigger number will allow jobs of several
batches running at the same time. It's hard to predicate the behavior and
sometimes will surprise you.
