Lee moon soo created ZEPPELIN-1460: -------------------------------------- Summary: Make spark configuration less confusing and ambiguous, more intuitive Key: ZEPPELIN-1460 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEPPELIN-1460 Project: Zeppelin Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 0.6.2 Reporter: Lee moon soo Fix For: 0.7.0
Currently, Spark context in Spark interpreter takes properties from many different places. - Interpreter setting page on Zeppelin GUI - Environment variable in conf/zeppelin-env.sh - Through --conf of SPARK_SUBMIT_OPTIONS in conf/zeppelin-env.sh - SPARK_HOME/conf/spark-defaults.conf There're some problems a) It's not clearly documented which way overrides the other b) Difficult to configure all properties of Spark Interpreter programmatically c) Difficult to see effective configuration value which combines all configurations in 4 different places above. I think a) and b) can be resolved by writing document that describes how configurations are applied and guide how to configure spark interpreter without accessing GUI. c) Many users expect to show interpreter setting GUI shows all effective configuration values. not only the values that interpreter.json overrides. But it can not be done without changing interpreter architecture, i think. We need some good ideas for c). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
