anishek commented on HIVE-16886:
--------------------------------

1. this will not happen as the id will *not* be allocated before commit, its at 
DB commit level, that id is generated and *not* at some future time when commit 
is happening.
2. this can happen.

since 1 is not happening consumers should keep processing elements in order 1,3 
etc and not wait for 2 to appear later.

>             Project: Hive
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Hive, Metastore
>            Reporter: Sergio Peña

>
> When running multiple Hive Metastore servers and DB notifications are 
> enabled, I could see that notifications can be persisted with a duplicated 
> event ID. 
> This does not happen when running multiple threads in a single HMS node due 
> to the locking acquired on the DbNotificationsLog class, but multiple HMS 
> could cause conflicts.
> The issue is in the ObjectStore#addNotificationEvent() method. The event ID 
> fetched from the datastore is used for the new notification, incremented in 
> the server itself, then persisted or updated back to the datastore. If 2 
> servers read the same ID, then these 2 servers write a new notification with 
> the same ID.
> The event ID is not unique nor a primary key.
> Here's a test case using the TestObjectStore class that confirms this issue:
> {noformat}
> @Test
>   public void testConcurrentAddNotifications() throws ExecutionException, 
> InterruptedException {
>     final int NUM_THREADS = 2;
>     CountDownLatch countIn = new CountDownLatch(NUM_THREADS);
>     CountDownLatch countOut = new CountDownLatch(1);
>     HiveConf conf = new HiveConf();
>     conf.setVar(HiveConf.ConfVars.METASTORE_EXPRESSION_PROXY_CLASS, 
> MockPartitionExpressionProxy.class.getName());
>     ExecutorService executorService = 
> Executors.newFixedThreadPool(NUM_THREADS);
>     FutureTask<Void> tasks[] = new FutureTask[NUM_THREADS];
>     for (int i=0; i<NUM_THREADS; i++) {
>       final int n = i;
>       tasks[i] = new FutureTask<Void>(new Callable<Void>() {
>         @Override
>         public Void call() throws Exception {
>           ObjectStore store = new ObjectStore();
>           store.setConf(conf);
>           NotificationEvent dbEvent =
>               new NotificationEvent(0, 0, 
> EventMessage.EventType.CREATE_DATABASE.toString(), "CREATE DATABASE DB" + n);
>           System.out.println("ADDING NOTIFICATION");
>           countIn.countDown();
>           countOut.await();
>           store.addNotificationEvent(dbEvent);
>           System.out.println("FINISH NOTIFICATION");
>           return null;
>         }
>       });
>       executorService.execute(tasks[i]);
>     }
>     countIn.await();
>     countOut.countDown();
>     for (int i = 0; i < NUM_THREADS; ++i) {
>       tasks[i].get();
>     }
>     NotificationEventResponse eventResponse = 
> objectStore.getNextNotification(new NotificationEventRequest());
>     Assert.assertEquals(2, eventResponse.getEventsSize());
>     Assert.assertEquals(1, eventResponse.getEvents().get(0).getEventId());
>     // This fails because the next notification has an event ID = 1
>     Assert.assertEquals(2, eventResponse.getEvents().get(1).getEventId());
>   }
> {noformat}
> The last assertion fails expecting an event ID 1 instead of 2.
