localtask启动失败

问题背景与现象

1. 执行join等操作，数据量较小时，会启动localtask执行，执行过程会报错：

   jdbc:hive2://10.*.*.*:21066/> select a.name ,b.sex from student a join student1 b on (a.name = b.name);
   ERROR : Execution failed with exit status: 1
   ERROR : Obtaining error information
   ERROR : 
   Task failed!
   Task ID:
     Stage-4
   ...
   Error: Error while processing statement: FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.mr.MapredLocalTask (state=08S01,code=1)
   ...

2. 查看对应hiveserver日志，发现是启动localtask失败

3. 查看对应hiveserver日志目录(/var/log/Bigdata/hive/hiveserver)下，hs_err_pid_*****.log，发现有内存不够的错误

   # There is insufficient memory for the Java Runtime Environment to continue.
   # Native memory allocation (mmap) failed to map 20776943616 bytes for committing reserved memory.
     ...

原因分析

Hive在执行join操作，数据量小时会生成MapJoin，执行MapJoin时会生成localtask任务，localtask启动的jvm内存继承了父进程的内存。

当有多个join执行的时候，启动多个localtask，如果机器内存不够，就会导致启动localtask失败。

解决办法

1. 登录FusionInsight Manager页面，选择“服务 > Hive > 配置 > 全部配置”。
2. 搜索“hive.auto.convert.join”参数并修改hive的配置hive.auto.convert.join 为false，保存配置并重启服务。

   该参数修改后会对业务性能有一定影响。继续执行后续步骤可不影响业务性能。

3. 搜索“HIVE_GC_OPTS”参数并修改 hive的HIVE_GC_OPTS，把Xms调小，具体要根据业务评估，最小设置为Xmx的一半，修改完后保存配置并重启服务。
