Oozie Coordinator Job Scheduling frequency

Sometimes you may see a situation where-in coordinator job says frequency in minutes for example say 60 but you can see the workflow jobs are running more frequently.

On the OOZIE Web console you can see the ‘Created Time’ increments more frequently while ‘Nominal Time’ increments by an hour which is the interval you may want.

The issue as here is that start date in coordinator xml is of past. So, in this scenario, Oozie will submit workflows for all the intervals that were missed starting from the start time till it gets in sync with current time. 

**The nominal time is the actual time interval (hour) that the workflow is supposed to process.

So, In such a situation you might want to set Concurrency to decide how many actions to runs in parallel, or Execution strategy, that can be FIFO, LIFO, LAST Only, or Throttle to decide how many jobs can be in waiting status if one is already Running.

Example:

<controls>
<concurrency>1</concurrency>
<execution>LAST_ONLY</execution>
<throttle>1</throttle>
</controls>

Hive Parse JSON with Array Columns and Explode it in to Multiple rows.

 Say we have a JSON String like below -  { "billingCountry":"US" "orderItems":[       {          "itemId":1,          "product":"D1"       },   {          "itemId":2,          "product":"D2"       }    ] } And, our aim is to get output parsed like below -  itemId product 1 D1 2 D2   First, We can parse JSON as follows to get JSON String get_json_object(value, '$.orderItems.itemId') as itemId get_json_object(value, '$.orderItems.product') as product Second, Above will result String value like "[1,2]". We want to convert it to Array as follows - split(regexp_extract(get_json_object(value, '$.orderItems.itemId'),'^\\["(.*)\\"]$',1),'","') as itemId split(regexp_extract(get_json_object(value, '$.orderItems.product'),'^\\["(.*)\\"]$',1),...

Read from a hive table and write back to it using spark sql

In context to Spark 2.2 - if we read from an hive table and write to same, we get following exception- scala > dy . write . mode ( "overwrite" ). insertInto ( "incremental.test2" ) org . apache . spark . sql . AnalysisException : Cannot insert overwrite into table that is also being read from .; org . apache . spark . sql . AnalysisException : Cannot insert overwrite into table that is also being read from .; 1. This error means that our process is reading from same table and writing to same table. 2. Normally, this should work as process writes to directory .hiveStaging... 3. This error occurs in case of saveAsTable method, as it overwrites entire table instead of individual partitions. 4. This error should not occur with insertInto method, as it overwrites partitions not the table. 5. A reason why this happening is because Hive table has following Spark TBLProperties in its definition. This problem will solve for insertInto met...




Hadoop Distcp Error Duplicate files in input path

  One may face following error while copying data from one cluster to other, using Distcp  Command: hadoop distcp -i {src} {tgt} Error: org.apache.hadoop.toolsCopyListing$DulicateFileException: File would cause duplicates. Ideally there can't be same file names. So, what might be happening in your case is you trying to copy partitioned table from one cluster to other. And, 2 different named partitions have same file name. Your solution is to correct Source path  {src}  in your command, such that you provide path uptil partitioned sub directory, not the file. For ex - Refer below : /a/partcol=1/file1.txt /a/partcol=2/file1.txt If you use  {src}  as  "/a/*/*"  then you will get the error  "File would cause duplicates." But, if you use  {src}  as  "/a"  then you will not get error in copying.
