You can try to increase tez.counters.max, Tez default is 2000, but in the latest version of Ambari it's set to 10000. Also, make sure you are using Pig-0.15 packaged in one of the latest versions of HDP. In Pig-0.14 tez_local mode was unstable. So, you can change tez.counters.max in Ambari or set it per Pig run:</P><PRE>pig -D tez.counters.max=10000 -x tez_local</PRE><P>By the way, what happens if you run your command in Tez mode, on a cluster?</P> Sat, 23 Apr 2016 10:41:30 GMT pminovic 2016-04-23T10:41:30Z https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Archives-of-Support-Questions/Pig-x-tez-local-counters-LimitExceedsException/m-p/112914#M26025 <P>Hi,</P><P>How to increase the counter limit for a pig session. -Dmapreduce.job.counters.limit is what I saw for a session.
