Job Parameter Description

When you perform the operations in Creating a Job in a Specified Cluster or Creating and Executing a Job in a Random Cluster, the driver-config-values parameter specifies the job configuration, which includes the following functions:

  • Retry upon Failure: If a job fails to be executed, you can choose whether to automatically restart the job.
  • Job Group: CDM allows you to group jobs. You can filter, delete, start, or export jobs by group.
  • Schedule Execution: Specify whether to execute scheduled jobs.
  • Concurrent Extractors: Enter the number of concurrent extractors.
  • Write Dirty Data: Specify this parameter if data that fails to be processed or filtered out during job execution needs to be written to OBS for future viewing. Before writing dirty data, create an OBS link.
  • Delete Job After Completion: Specify whether to delete a job after the job is executed.

Parameter Description

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

throttlingConfig.numExtractors

No

Integer

Maximum number of concurrent extraction jobs. For example, 20.

groupJobConfig.groupName

No

Enumeration

Group to which a job belongs. The default group is DEFAULT.

throttlingConfig.numLoaders

No

Integer

This parameter is available only when HBase or Hive serves as the destination data source.

Maximum number of loading jobs. For example, 5.

throttlingConfig.recordDirtyData

No

Boolean

Whether to write dirty data. For example, true.

throttlingConfig.writeToLink

No

String

Link to which dirty data is written. Currently, dirty data can be written only to OBS or HDFS. For example, obslink.

throttlingConfig.obsBucket

No

String

Name of the OBS bucket to which dirty data is written. This parameter is valid only when dirty data is written to OBS. For example, dirtyData.

throttlingConfig.dirtyDataDirectory

No

String

Directory to which dirty data is written

  • To write dirty data to HDFS, set this parameter to the specified HDFS directory.
  • To write dirty data to OBS, set this parameter to the directory in the OBS bucket. For example, /data/dirtydata/.

throttlingConfig.maxErrorRecords

No

String

Maximum number of error records in a single shard. When the number of error records of a map exceeds the upper limit, the task automatically ends. The imported data will not be rolled back.

schedulerConfig.isSchedulerJob

No

Boolean

Whether to enable a scheduled task. For example, true.

schedulerConfig.cycleType

No

String

Cycle type of a scheduled task. The options are as follows:

  • minute: minute
  • hour: hour
  • day: day
  • week: week
  • month: month

schedulerConfig.cycle

No

Integer

Cycle of a scheduled task. If cycleType is set to minute and cycle is set to 10, the scheduled task is executed every 10 minutes.

schedulerConfig.runAt

No

String

Time when a scheduled task is triggered in a cycle. This parameter is valid only when cycleType is set to hour, week, or month.

  • If cycleType is set to month, cycle is set to 1, and runAt is set to 15, the scheduled task is executed on the 15th day of each month. You can set runAt to multiple values and separate the values with commas (,).

    For example, if runAt is set to 1,2,3,4,5, the scheduled task is executed on the first day, second day, third day, fourth day, and fifth day of each month.
