Why Does FetchFailedException Occur When the Network Connection Is Timed out

Question

On a large cluster of 380 nodes, run the ScalaSort test case in the HiBench test that runs the 29T data, and configure Executor as --executor-cores 4. The following abnormality is displayed:

Answer

When an application is run, configure the Executor parameter as --executor-cores 4. The degree of parallelism (DOP) is high in a single process, resulting in that the IO is highly occupied and the task works slowly.

16/02/26 10:04:53 INFO TaskSetManager: Finished task 2139.0 in stage 1.0 (TID 151149) in 376455 ms on 10-196-115-2 (694/153378)

Because running a single task takes more than 6 minutes. The network connection is timed out and the running task fails.

Set the number of cores as 1, which is --executor-cores 1. A task is executed smoothly in proper time (within 15s).

16/02/29 02:24:46 INFO TaskSetManager: Finished task 59564.0 in stage 1.0 (TID 208574) in 15088 ms on 10-196-115-6 (59515/153378)

Therefore, to process the task of network connection timed out and avoid such error, you can reduce the core number of a single Executor.
