Billie, I think I just started to come to that same conclusion (I'm relatively new to cloud computing). It appears that it is running in local mode. My console output says "mapred.LocalJobRunner" and the job never appears on my Hadoop Job page. How do I fix this problem? I also found that the "JobTracker" link on my Accumulo Overview page points to http://0.0.0.0:50030/ instead of the actual computer name.

I would check the jobtracker page and verify the number of map slots, as well as how they're running, as print statements are not the most accurate in the framework. Also make sure your MR job isn't running in local mode. Sometimes that happens if your job can't find the Hadoop configuration directory. Billie Sent from my phone, pardon the typos and brevity.

I am only callying ToolRunner.run once. public static void ExtractFeaturesFromNewImages() throws Exception{ String[] parameters = new String[1]; parameters[0] = "foo"; InitializeFeatureExtractor(); ToolRunner.run(CachedConfiguration.getInstance(), new Accumulo_FE_MR_Job(), parameters); } Another indicator that I'm only calling it once is that before I was pre-splitting the table, I was just getting one larger map-reduce job with only 1 mapper. Based on my print statements, the job was running in sequence (which I guess makes sense because the table only existed on one node in my cluster.

If you have 4 jobs being created, then you're calling run(String[]) or runOneTable() 4 times.

When I say that I'm pre-splitting my table, I mean I am using the tableOperations().addSplits(table,splits) command. I have verified that this is correctly splitting my table into 4 tablets and it is being distributed across my cloud before I start my map reduce job. Now, I only kick off the job once, but it appears that 4 separate jobs run (one after the other). The first one reaches 100% in its map phase (and based on my output only handled ΒΌ of the data), then the next job starts at 0% and reaches 100%, and so on. So I think I'm "only running one mapper at a time in an MR job that has 4 mappers total.". I have 2 mapper slots per node. My hadoop is set up so that one machine is the namenode and the other 3 are datanodes. This gives me 6 slots total. (This is not congruent to my accumulo where the master is also a slave - giving 4 total slaves). My map reduce job is not a chain job, so all 4 tablets should be able to run at the same time. Here is my job class code below: import org.apache.accumulo.core.security.Authorizations; import org.apache.accumulo.core.client.mapreduce.AccumuloOutputFormat; import org.apache.accumulo.core.client.mapreduce.AccumuloRowInputFormat; import org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configured; import org.apache.hadoop.io.DoubleWritable; import org.apache.hadoop.io.Text; import org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job; import org.apache.hadoop.util.Tool; import org.apache.log4j.Level; public class Accumulo_FE_MR_Job extends Configured implements Tool{ private void runOneTable() throws Exception { System.out.println("Running Map Reduce Feature Extraction Job"); Job job = new Job(getConf(), getClass().getName()); job.setJarByClass(getClass()); job.setJobName("MRFE"); job.setInputFormatClass(AccumuloRowInputFormat.class); AccumuloRowInputFormat.setZooKeeperInstance(job.getConfiguration(), HMaxConstants.INSTANCE, HMaxConstants.ZOO_SERVERS); AccumuloRowInputFormat.setInputInfo(job.getConfiguration(), HMaxConstants.USER, HMaxConstants.PASSWORD.getBytes(), HMaxConstants.FEATLESS_IMG_TABLE, new Authorizations()); AccumuloRowInputFormat.setLogLevel(job.getConfiguration(), Level.FATAL); job.setMapperClass(AccumuloFEMapper.class); job.setMapOutputKeyClass(Text.class); job.setMapOutputValueClass(DoubleWritable.class); job.setNumReduceTasks(4); job.setReducerClass(AccumuloFEReducer.class); job.setOutputKeyClass(Text.class); job.setOutputValueClass(Text.class); job.setOutputFormatClass(AccumuloOutputFormat.class); AccumuloOutputFormat.setZooKeeperInstance(job.getConfiguration(), HMaxConstants.INSTANCE, HMaxConstants.ZOO_SERVERS); AccumuloOutputFormat.setOutputInfo(job.getConfiguration(), HMaxConstants.USER, HMaxConstants.PASSWORD.getBytes(), true, HMaxConstants.ALL_IMG_TABLE); AccumuloOutputFormat.setLogLevel(job.getConfiguration(), Level.FATAL); job.waitForCompletion(true); if (job.isSuccessful()) { System.err.println("Job Successful"); } else { System.err.println("Job Unsuccessful"); } } @Override public int run(String[] arg0) throws Exception { runOneTable(); return 0; } } Thanks, Duane From: John Vines [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Sent: Friday, November 02, 2012 5:04 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Accumulo Map Reduce is not distributed This sounds like an issue with how your MR environment is configured and/or how you're kicking off your mapreduce. Accumulo's input formats with automatically set the number of mappers to the number of tablets you have, so you should have seen your job go from 1 mapper to 4. What you describe is you now do 4 MR jobs instead of just one, is that correct? Because that doesn't make a lot of sense, unless by presplitting your table you meant you now have 4 different support tables. Or do you mean that you're only running one mapper at a time in an MR job that has 4 mappers total? I believe it's somewhere in your kickoff that things may be a bit misconstrued. Just so I'm clear, how many mapper slots do you have per node, is your job a chain MR job, and do you mind sharing your code which sets up and kicks off your MR job so I have an idea of what could be kicking off 4 jobs.

I have a map reduce job that I want to run over data in a table. I have an index table and a support table which contains a subset of the data in the index table. I would like to map reduce over the support table on my small 4 node cluster. I have written a map reduce job that uses the AccumuloRowInputFormat class and sets the support table as its input table. In my mapper, I read in a row of the support table, and make a call to a static function which pulls information out of the index table. Next, I use the data pulled back from the function call as input to a call to an external .so file that is stored on the name node. I then make another static function call to ingest the new data back into the index table. (I know I could emit this in the reduce step, but what I'm ingesting is formatted in a somewhat complex java object and I already had a static function that ingested it the way I needed it.) My reduce step is completely empty. I output print statements from my mapper to see my progress. The problem that I'm getting is that my entire job appears to run in sequence not in parallel. I am running it from the accumulo master on the 4 node system. I realized that my support table is very small and was not being split across any tables. I am now presplitting this table across all 4 nodes. Now, when I run the map reduce job it appears that 4 separate map reduce jobs run one after each other. The first map reduce job runs, gets to 100%, then the next map reduce job runs, etc. The job is only called once, why are there 4 jobs running? Why won't these jobs run in parallel? Is there any way to set the number of tasks that can run? This is possible from the hadoop command line, is it possible from the java API? Also, could my problem stem from the fact that during my mapper I am making static function calls to another class in my java project, accessing my accumulo index table, or making a call to an exteral .so library? I could restructure the job to avoid making static function calls and I could write directly to the Accumulo table from my map reduce job if that would fix my problem. I can't avoid making the external .so library call. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Duane
