Spark metrics sink doesn't expose executor's metrics - apache-spark

Question

I'm using Spark on YARN with
Ambari 2.7.4
HDP Standalone 3.1.4
Spark 2.3.2
Hadoop 3.1.1
Graphite on Docker latest
I was trying to get Spark metrics with Graphite sink following this tutorial.
Advanced spark2-metrics-properties in Ambari are:
driver.sink.graphite.class=org.apache.spark.metrics.sink.GraphiteSink
executor.sink.graphite.class=org.apache.spark.metrics.sink.GraphiteSink
worker.sink.graphite.class=org.apache.spark.metrics.sink.GraphiteSink
master.sink.graphite.class=org.apache.spark.metrics.sink.GraphiteSink
*.sink.graphite.host=ap-test-m.c.gcp-ps.internal
*.sink.graphite.port=2003
*.sink.graphite.protocol=tcp
*.sink.graphite.period=10
*.sink.graphite.unit=seconds
*.sink.graphite.prefix=app-test
*.source.jvm.class=org.apache.spark.metrics.source.JvmSource
Spark submit:
export HADOOP_CONF_DIR=/usr/hdp/3.1.4.0-315/hadoop/conf/; spark-submit --class com.Main --master yarn --deploy-mode client --driver-memory 1g --executor-memory 10g --num-executors 2 --executor-cores 2 spark-app.jar /data
As a result I'm only getting driver metrics.
Also, I was trying to add metrics.properties to spark-submit command together with global spark metrics props, but that didn't help.
And finally, I tried conf in spark-submit and in java SparkConf:
--conf "spark.metrics.conf.driver.sink.graphite.class"="org.apache.spark.metrics.sink.GraphiteSink"
--conf "spark.metrics.conf.executor.sink.graphite.class"="org.apache.spark.metrics.sink.GraphiteSink"
--conf "worker.sink.graphite.class"="org.apache.spark.metrics.sink.GraphiteSink"
--conf "master.sink.graphite.class"="org.apache.spark.metrics.sink.GraphiteSink"
--conf "spark.metrics.conf.*.sink.graphite.host"="host"
--conf "spark.metrics.conf.*.sink.graphite.port"=2003
--conf "spark.metrics.conf.*.sink.graphite.period"=10
--conf "spark.metrics.conf.*.sink.graphite.unit"=seconds
--conf "spark.metrics.conf.*.sink.graphite.prefix"="app-test"
--conf "spark.metrics.conf.*.source.jvm.class"="org.apache.spark.metrics.source.JvmSource"
But that didn't help either.
CSVSink also gives only driver metrics.
UPD
When I submit job in cluster mode - I'm getting the same metrics as in Spark History Server. But the jvm metrics are still absent.

Posting to a dated question, but maybe it will help.
Seems like executors do not have metrics.properties file on their filesystems.
One way to confirm this would be to look at the executor logs:
2020-01-16 10:00:10 ERROR MetricsConfig:91 - Error loading configuration file metrics.properties
java.io.FileNotFoundException: metrics.properties (No such file or directory)
at org.apache.spark.metrics.MetricsConfig.loadPropertiesFromFile(MetricsConfig.scala:132)
at org.apache.spark.metrics.MetricsConfig.initialize(MetricsConfig.scala:55)
at org.apache.spark.metrics.MetricsSystem.<init>(MetricsSystem.scala:95)
at org.apache.spark.metrics.MetricsSystem$.createMetricsSystem(MetricsSystem.scala:233)
To fix this on yarn pass two parameters to spark-submit:
$ spark-submit \
--files metrics.properties \
--conf spark.metrics.conf=metrics.properties
The --files option ensures that files specified in the option will be shared to executors.
The spark.metrics.conf option specifies a custom file location for the metrics.
Another way to fix the issue would be to place the metrics.properties file into $SPARK_HOME/conf/metrics.properties on both the driver and executor before starting the job.
