What are the alternatives to run Spark application in cluster mode? - apache-spark

I am writing a Spark application by using Scala. My application is packaged in a jar file by using maven, I can run my application in the local mode (standalone) with this command :
spark-submit --class classes.mainClass --master local --driver-memory 30G logs-0.0.7-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies
My question : How I can try my application in cluster mode?
I need to check my application by using 1, 2, 3 ... cluster machines.

Standard way to store/upload application jar on Spark cluster on Kubernetes

I have a Spark based Kubernetes cluster where I am using spark-submit to submit the jobs on cluster as needed.
e.g.
spark-submit \
--master spark://my-spark-master-svc:7077 \
--class com.Main \
examples/jars/my-spark-application.jar
Here I have uploaded file my-spark-application.jar using kubectl cp under the directory examples/jars on the master Pod/container before I run the spark-submit command.
Another option could be by mounting a Volume on the cluster and share the jar on the volume that way.
What is the typical way to share the application jar with the spark cluster while using spark-submit on Kubernetes?

What is the command to call Spark2 from Shell

I have two services for Spark in my cluster, one is with name of Spark(1.6 version) and another one is Spark2(2.0 Version). I am able to call Spark with below command.
spark-shell --master yarn
But not able to connect Spark2 service even after set "export SPARK_MAJOR_VERSION=2"
Can some one help me on.
I'm using CDH cluster and following command works for me.
spark2-shell --queue <queue-name-if-any> --deploy-mode client
If I remember, SPARK_MAJOR_VERSION only works with spark-submit
You would need to find the spark2 installation directory to use the other spark-shell
Sounds like you are in an HDP cluster, so look under /usr/hdp

Possible to get output from Spark App submitted in cluster mode?

Is it possible to get output from my Spark App submitted in cluster mode? If so, how?
I'm running a simple Spark application using Python. The program just sets up a Spark Context and prints This app ran successfully to the screen. When I submit this app with the following:
spark-submit --deploy-mode client --master local[*] foo.py
it runs successfully and prints out the message.
However, when I run the same app with:
spark-submit --deploy-mode cluster --master yarn-cluster foo.py
it runs successfully, but I get no output.
While I've been using Spark for a few months now, I'm relatively new to submitting apps in cluster mode, so any help/documentation would be great!
You can save This app ran successfully to external storage system such as:
sc.parallelize(['This app ran successfully'], 1).saveAsTextFile(path='hdfs:///somewhere/you/want')

Spark Mesos Cluster Mode using Dispatcher

I have only a single machine and want to run spark jobs with mesos cluster mode. It might make more sense to run with a cluster of nodes, but I mainly want to test out mesos first to check if it's able to utilize resources more efficiently (run multiple spark jobs at the same time without static partitioning). I have tried a number of ways but without success. Here is what I did:
Build mesos and run both mesos master and slaves (2 slaves in same machines).
sudo ./bin/mesos-master.sh --ip=127.0.0.1 --work_dir=/var/lib/mesos
sudo ./bin/mesos-slave.sh --master=127.0.0.1:5050 --port=5051 --work_dir=/tmp/mesos1
sudo ./bin/mesos-slave.sh --master=127.0.0.1:5050 --port=5052 --work_dir=/tmp/mesos2
Run the spark-mesos-dispatcher
sudo ./sbin/start-mesos-dispatcher.sh --master mesos://localhost:5050
The submit the app with dispatcher as master url.
spark-submit --master mesos://localhost:7077 <other-config> <jar file>
But it doesnt work:
E0925 17:30:30.158846 807608320 socket.hpp:174] Shutdown failed on fd=61: Socket is not connected [57]
E0925 17:30:30.159545 807608320 socket.hpp:174] Shutdown failed on fd=62: Socket is not connected [57]
If I use spark-submit --deploy-mode cluster, then I got another error message:
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.spark.deploy.rest.SubmitRestConnectionException: Unable to connect to server
It work perfectly if I don't use dispatcher but using mesos master url directly: --master mesos://localhost:5050 (client mode). According to the documentation , cluster mode is not supported for Mesos clusters, but they give another instruction for cluster mode here. So it's kind of confusing? My question is:
How I can get it works?
Should I use client mode instead of cluster mode if I submit the app/jar directly from the master node?
If I have a single computer, should I spawn 1 or more mesos slave processes. Basically, I have a number of spark job and dont want to do static partitioning of resources. But when using mesos without static partitioning, it seems to be much slower?
Thanks.
There seem to be two things you're confusing: launching a Spark application in a cluster (as opposed to locally) and launching the driver into the cluster.
From the top of Submitting Applications:
The spark-submit script in Spark’s bin directory is used to launch applications on a cluster. It can use all of Spark’s supported cluster managers through a uniform interface so you don’t have to configure your application specially for each one.
So, Mesos is one of the supported cluster managers and hence you can run Spark apps on a Mesos cluster.
What Mesos as time of writing does not support is launching the driver into the cluster, this is what the command line argument --deploy-mode of ./bin/spark-submitspecifies. Since the default value of --deploy-mode is client you can just omit it, or if you want to explicitly specify it, then use:
./bin/spark-submit --deploy-mode client ...
I use your scenario to try, it could be work.
One thing different , I use ip address to instead of "localhost" and "127.0.0.1"
So just try again and to check http://your_dispatcher:8081 (on browser) if exist.
This is my spark-submit command:
$spark-submit --deploy-mode cluster --master mesos://192.168.11.79:7077 --class "SimpleApp" SimpleAppV2.jar
If success, you can see as below
{
"action" : "CreateSubmissionResponse",
"serverSparkVersion" : "1.5.0",
"submissionId" : "driver-20151006164749-0001",
"success" : true
}
When I got your error log as yours, I reboot the machine and retry your step. It also work.
Try using the 6066 port instead of 7077. The newer versions of Spark prefer the REST api for submitting jobs.

Apache Spark on client

I was wondering if it makes sense to install spark just on the client side without any clusters. A client device can be a laptop/desktop/mobile device. Can we put spark on one of these devices and leverage the libraries of spark.
Spark runs great on a single (client) machine.
$spark-shell --master local[*]
or
$spark-submit --master local[*] --class "MyApp" MyApp.jar
