Matthew Mulder created IMPALA-5605: -------------------------------------- Summary: configuration to prevent crashes caused by thread resource limits Key: IMPALA-5605 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-5605 Project: IMPALA Issue Type: Documentation Components: Docs Affects Versions: Impala 2.9.0 Reporter: Matthew Mulder Assignee: John Russell Fix For: Impala 2.9.0
Depending on the workload, Impala may need to create a very large number of threads. If so, it is necessary to configure the system correctly to prevent Impala from crashing because of resource limitations. Such a crash would look like this:{code}F0629 08:20:02.956413 29088 llvm-codegen.cc:111] LLVM hit fatal error: Unable to allocate section memory! terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::exception_detail::clone_impl<boost::exception_detail::error_info_injector<boost::thread_resource_error> >'{code}To prevent this, each Impala host should be configured like this:{code}echo 2000000 > /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max echo 2000000 > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max echo 8000000 > /proc/sys/vm/max_map_count{code}In /etc/security/limits.conf add{code}impala soft nproc 262144 impala hard nproc 262144{code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
