Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-12486: ------------------------------------ Assignee: Apache Spark > Executors are not always terminated successfully by the worker. > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-12486 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12486 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Spark Core > Reporter: Nong Li > Assignee: Apache Spark > > There are cases when the executor is not killed successfully by the worker. > One way this can happen is if the executor is in a bad state, fails to > heartbeat and the master tells the worker to kill the executor. The executor > is in such a bad state that the kill request is ignored. This seems to be > able to happen if the executor is in heavy GC. > The cause of this is that the Process.destroy() API is not forceful enough. > In Java8, a new API, destroyForcibly() was added. We should use that if > available. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
