"ActivityAnalyzerFacade" consuming high ammount of memory resources for a server and launched by root

JLo_Hernandez — Tue, 12 Dec 2017 02:28:17 GMT

We are observing mentioned process is consuming high CPU resources for a particular server and going through the clutser looking for same process, I 've founded on other 2 servers, running under a different user and they are not even close to the consumpltion level like the one I am having the doubt with.

What I want to know is if this is a normal behavior and if I should't worry abou it.

@Jorge Luis Hernandez Olmos,

We have seen this happen in some versions. There are some Tez analyzers that consume a lot of resources. Do this config change to disable the analyzers that consume more resources. Disabling these does not impact your normal processing or analysis.

Ambari > SmartSenseConfigs> custom activity-conf :

tez_job.activity.analyzers= com.hortonworks.smartsense.activity.job.tez.analyzer.SlowNodeAnalyzer, com.hortonworks.smartsense.activity.job.tez.analyzer.LocalityAnalyzer, com.hortonworks.smartsense.activity.job.tez.analyzer.SkewAnalyzer, com.hortonworks.smartsense.activity.job.tez.analyzer.SlowestVertexAnalyzer, com.hortonworks.smartsense.activity.job.tez.analyzer.SpillAnalyzer

This disables ContainerReuseAnalyzer, SlowTaskIdentifier, CriticalPathAnalyzerandShuffleTimeAnalyzer.

Pls note, by default activity analysis consumes minimum of 8 GB of heap even if above analyzers are disabled. So, it is ok to see such consumption even after disabling these tez analyzers.
