Overview

The Apache Hadoop software library is a framework that allows for the
distributed processing of large data sets across clusters of computers
using a simple programming model.

This charm deploys version 2.7.3 of the ResourceManager component from
Apache Bigtop.

Deploying

This charm requires Juju 2.0 or greater. If Juju is not yet set up, please
follow the getting-started instructions prior to deploying this charm.

This charm is intended to be deployed via one of the apache bigtop bundles.
For example:

juju deploy hadoop-processing

This will deploy an Apache Bigtop cluster with this charm acting as the
ResourceManager. More information about this deployment can be found in the
bundle readme.

Network-Restricted Environments

Charms can be deployed in environments with limited network access. To deploy
in this environment, configure a Juju model with appropriate proxy and/or
mirror options. See Configuring Models for more information.

Verifying

Status

Apache Bigtop charms provide extended status reporting to indicate when they
are ready:

juju status

This is particularly useful when combined with watch to track the on-going
progress of the deployment:

watch -n 2 juju status

The message column will provide information about a given unit's state.
This charm is ready for use once the status message indicates that it is
ready with nodemanagers.

Smoke Test

This charm provides a smoke-test action that can be used to verify the
application is functioning as expected. This action executes the 'yarn'
smoke tests provided by Apache Bigtop and may take up to
10 minutes to complete. Run the action as follows:

juju run-action resourcemanager/0 smoke-test

Watch the progress of the smoke test actions with:

watch -n 2 juju show-action-status

Eventually, the action should settle to status: completed. If it
reports status: failed, the application is not working as expected. Get
more information about a specific smoke test with:

juju show-action-output <action-id>

Utilities

This charm includes Hadoop command line and web utilities that can be used
to verify information about the cluster.

Show the running nodes on the command line with the following:

juju run --application resourcemanager "su yarn -c 'yarn node -list'"

To access the Resource Manager web consoles, find the PUBLIC-ADDRESS of the
resourcemanager application and expose it:

juju status resourcemanager
juju expose resourcemanager

The YARN and Job History web interfaces will be available at the following URLs:

http://RESOURCEMANAGER_PUBLIC_IP:8088
http://RESOURCEMANAGER_PUBLIC_IP:19888

Benchmarking

This charm provides several benchmarks to gauge the performance of the
cluster. Each benchmark is an action that can be run with juju run-action:

$ juju actions resourcemanager
ACTION      DESCRIPTION
mrbench     Mapreduce benchmark for small jobs
nnbench     Load test the NameNode hardware and configuration
smoke-test  Run an Apache Bigtop smoke test.
teragen     Generate data with teragen
terasort    Runs teragen to generate sample data, and then runs terasort to sort that data
testdfsio   DFS IO Testing

$ juju run-action resourcemanager/0 nnbench
