Specifying a Queue When Submitting a Hive Task

Symptom

How do I specify a queue when Hive submits a job?

Procedure

1. Before submitting the job, set the job queue, for example, submitting the job to QueueA.

   set mapred.job.queue.name=QueueA;

   select count(*) from rc;

   

   The queue name is case sensitive. For example, in this example, queueA and Queuea are invalid. In addition, the queue must be a leaf queue, and jobs cannot be submitted to a non-leaf queue.

2. After job submission, go to the Yarn page to check the job. The job has been submitted to QueueA.
