I'm trying to use Spark SQL to load json data that are split across about 70k files across 24 directories in hdfs, using sqlContext.read.json("hdfs:///user/hadoop/data/*/*").
This doesn't seem to work for some reason, I get timeout errors like the following: ------- 6/06/13 15:46:31 ERROR TransportChannelHandler: Connection to ip-172-31-31-114.ec2.internal/172.31.31.114:46028 has been quiet for 120000 ms while there are outstanding requests. Assuming connection is dead; please adjust spark.network.timeout if this is wrong. 16/06/13 15:46:31 ERROR TransportResponseHandler: Still have 1 requests outstanding when connection from ip-172-31-31-114.ec2.internal/172.31.31.114:46028 is closed ... org.apache.spark.rpc.RpcTimeoutException: Futures timed out after [120 seconds]. This timeout is controlled by spark.rpc.askTimeout ... Caused by: java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException: Futures timed out after [120 seconds] ------ I don't want to start tinkering with increasing timeouts yet. I tried to load just one sub-directory, which contains around 4k files, and this seems to work fine. So I thought of writing a loop where I load the json files from each sub-dir and then unionAll the current dataframe with the previous dataframe. However, this also fails because apparently the json files don't have the exact same schema, causing this error: --- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/hadoop/load_json.py", line 65, in <module> df = df.unionAll(hrdf) File "/usr/lib/spark/python/lib/pyspark.zip/pyspark/sql/dataframe.py", line 998, in unionAll File "/usr/lib/spark/python/lib/py4j-0.9-src.zip/py4j/java_gateway.py", line 813, in __call__ File "/usr/lib/spark/python/lib/pyspark.zip/pyspark/sql/utils.py", line 51, in deco pyspark.sql.utils.AnalysisException: u"unresolved operator 'Union;" --- I'd like to know what's preventing Spark from loading 70k files the same way it's loading 4k files? To give you some idea about my setup and data: - ~70k files across 24 directories in HDFS - Each directory contains 3k files on average - Cluster: 200 nodes EMR cluster, each node has 53 GB memory and 8 cores available to YARN - Spark 1.6.1 Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/Is-there-a-limit-on-the-number-of-tasks-in-one-job-tp27158.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@spark.apache.org
