Hadoop Archive Logs Guide
=========================
- [Overview](#Overview)
- [How to Archive Logs](#How_to_Archive_Logs)
Overview
--------
For clusters with a lot of Yarn aggregated logs, it can be helpful to combine
them into hadoop archives in order to reduce the number of small files, and
hence the stress on the NameNode. This tool provides an easy way to do this.
Aggregated logs in hadoop archives can still be read by the Job History Server
and by the `yarn logs` command.
For more on hadoop archives, see
[Hadoop Archives Guide](../hadoop-archives/HadoopArchives.html).
How to Archive Logs
-------------------
usage: mapred archive-logs
-force Force recreating the working directory if
an existing one is found. This should
only be used if you know that another
instance is not currently running
-help Prints this message
-maxEligibleApps <n> The maximum number of eligible apps to
process (default: -1 (all))
-maxTotalLogsSize <megabytes> The maximum total logs size (in
megabytes) required to be eligible
(default: 1024)
-memory <megabytes> The amount of memory (in megabytes) for
each container (default: 1024)
-minNumberLogFiles <n> The minimum number of log files required
to be eligible (default: 20)
-verbose Print more details.
The tool only supports running one instance on a cluster at a time in order
to prevent conflicts. It does this by checking for the existance of a
directory named ``archive-logs-work`` under
``yarn.nodemanager.remote-app-log-dir`` in HDFS
(default: ``/tmp/logs/archive-logs-work``). If for some reason that
directory was not cleaned up properly, and the tool refuses to run, you can
force it with the ``-force`` option.
The ``-help`` option prints out the usage information.
The tool works by performing the following procedure:
1. Determine the list of eligible applications, based on the following
criteria:
- is not already archived
- its aggregation status has successfully completed
- has at least ``-minNumberLogFiles`` log files
- the sum of its log files size is less than ``-maxTotalLogsSize`` megabytes
2. If there are are more than ``-maxEligibleApps`` applications found, the
newest applications are dropped. They can be processed next time.
3. A shell script is generated based on the eligible applications
4. The Distributed Shell program is run with the aformentioned script. It
will run with ``-maxEligibleApps`` containers, one to process each
application, and with ``-memory`` megabytes of memory. Each container runs
the ``hadoop archives`` command for a single application and replaces
its aggregated log files with the resulting archive.
The ``-verbose`` option makes the tool print more details about what it's
doing.
The end result of running the tool is that the original aggregated log files for
a processed application will be replaced by a hadoop archive containing all of
those logs.
