Apache Spark commented on SPARK-33000: -------------------------------------- User 'nchammas' has created a pull request for this issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/31742 > cleanCheckpoints config does not clean all checkpointed RDDs on shutdown > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: SPARK-33000 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-33000 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 2.4.6 > Reporter: Nicholas Chammas > Priority: Minor > > Maybe it's just that the documentation needs to be updated, but I found this > surprising: > {code:python} > $ pyspark > ... > >>> spark.conf.set('spark.cleaner.referenceTracking.cleanCheckpoints', 'true') > >>> spark.sparkContext.setCheckpointDir('/tmp/spark/checkpoint/') > >>> a = spark.range(10) > >>> a.checkpoint() > DataFrame[id: bigint] > > >>> exit(){code} > The checkpoint data is left behind in {{/tmp/spark/checkpoint/}}. I expected > Spark to clean it up on shutdown. > The documentation for {{spark.cleaner.referenceTracking.cleanCheckpoints}} > says: > {quote}Controls whether to clean checkpoint files if the reference is out of > scope. > {quote} > When Spark shuts down, everything goes out of scope, so I'd expect all > checkpointed RDDs to be cleaned up. > For the record, I see the same behavior in both the Scala and Python REPLs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
