Elasticsearch-hadoop sporadic timeouts

Hi - we're having problems with one of our map-reduce jobs that writes to
Elasticsearch. Lots of map tasks are failing due to ES being "unavailable",
with logs like this:

https://gist.githubusercontent.com/zcox/3d6cf4329d49ca03271b/raw/57c46a5e4c9ea04d5c4209414d6f847492d16c0d/gistfile1.txt

Seems like elasticsearch-hadoop tries talking to an ES node, it times out,
tries the next one, it times out, etc until all nodes in the cluster are
exhausted and then it gives up.

As far as I can tell, the ES cluster is healthy while this is occurring.
May map tasks are succeeding - probably about 10% of the attempts are
killed due to this issue. The main problem is that these killed tasks waste
a lot of time, and slow down the overall job execution.

I'm not sure where to troubleshoot this next. Does anyone have any idea
what would cause all of these time outs & failures?

I'm also curious about the lines like this:

2014-09-30 12:49:20,469 WARN org.apache.commons.httpclient.SimpleHttpConnectionManager: SimpleHttpConnectionManager being used incorrectly. Be sure that HttpMethod.releaseConnection() is always called and that only one thread and/or method is using this connection manager at a time.

Would that be related to the timeout problem we're seeing?

Thanks,
Zach

What version of es-hadoop/es/cascading are you using?

Can you please try the 2.0.2.BUILD-SNAPSHOT? I think you might be running into issue #256 which was fixed some time ago
and will be part of the upcoming
2.0.2, 2.1 Beta2.

Hi Costin - we updated our dependencies to use elasticsearch-hadoop
2.0.2.BUILD-SNAPSHOT, but that didn't seem to change anything. We're still
seeing the same task failures while trying to write to Elasticsearch. The
only difference in the logs is that now I don't see
the SimpleHttpConnectionManager warnings.

Any ideas what we could try next?

Thanks,
Zach

The error indicates the ES nodes don't reply in a timely fashion and thus the connection drops. Based on your logs it
seems to be either a GC or a network issue.
You could try turning on logging in package 'org.elasticsearch.hadoop.rest' to DEBUG.
How many tasks do you have and what's your bulk size/entries number?

This particular job has 1353 map tasks, Hadoop cluster has 5 nodes with
total map task capacity of 25. Elasticsearch cluster has 4 nodes.

Where can I find the bulk size/entries numbers?

Thanks,
Zach

Hi Costin - by "bulk size/entries number" are you referring to the
es.batch.size.bytes and es.batch.size.entries config values described here?

It looks like the only elasticsearch-related config values we're setting is
this:

es.input.json = true

So we must be using default values for those es.batch.size config values.

Thanks,
Zach

Is there anything else we could try here to debug elasticsearch-hadoop
being unable to write to Elasticsearch? We're still seeing the same number
of these fails during the nightly batch runs even after switching to
2.0.2.BUILD-SNAPSHOT,
and I don't see any additional lines from org.elasticsearch.hadoop.rest in
the tasktracker logs after adding to our logback.xml.

Here are example logs for a task that failed this morning:
https://gist.githubusercontent.com/zcox/c5c81f4f8ee26d7bedbf/raw/ac9bef7bfe3a8e1ef69a62aabe4c7c3983882f19/gistfile1.txt

Is it reasonable to expect 4 Elasticsearch nodes to handle the batch write
volume from 5 Hadoop nodes (25 map tasks)?

Thanks,
Zach

You can always enable TRACE though that is likely to create way too much information in production and slow things down
considerably.

The first thing you can do is minimize the batch size to give ES more breathing space by minimizing the batch size (say
to 512KB) or the number
of entries (500 instead of 1k, etc...).
However the error indicates a network issue not an Elasticsearch one so check whether there's some type of
service/network/firewall initialization happening at night. Do the errors occur around the same time? Is there some
backup procedure that potentially kicks in?

Potentially you can try and increase the default http timeout (es.http.timeout) from 1m to 3m or so. However this is
really a patch since if the ES server doesn't return a response in 1m, it means things are not going well at all.

Is it reasonable to expect 4 Elasticsearch nodes to handle the batch write volume from 5 Hadoop nodes (25 map tasks)?

It looks like the only elasticsearch-related config values we're setting is this:

So we must be using default values for those es.batch.size config values.

Our Hadoop and Elasticsearch are all on AWS. We have 2 MR jobs that write
to ES - 1 of them works fine, and one of them takes forever due to 10-20%
of tasks failing in the way I've described. So I don't think it's any kind
of network/firewall issue. There are no nightly backups related to ES or
anything.

Would 25 map tasks batch writing to a 4-node Elasticsearch cluster cause it
so much pain that it stops responding to writes? If I ssh to the ES nodes
while this job is running and some tasks are failing, it doesn't seem like
ES is under much stress.

Thanks,
Zach

What type of AWS instances are you using? Virtualization tends to interfere in various ways with a running system -
sometime for good, sometimes for worse.

The number of tasks is good to compute the total number of data and entries you are throwing at ES at one time. You are
looking at a maximum of 25 MBs or 25K entries against the 4 node Elastic. Depending on how beefy the machines are and
what type of storage and mapping you have, it might be quick or slow - we can only guess. Try using Marvel or other
monitoring tools so you can see whether there's load building up or if anything unusual happens.

Since it's unclear what the issue might be, take baby steps [1] and start with minimal load (smaller bulk size + less
tasks) see whether there are any issues and keep on going.

Our Hadoop and Elasticsearch are all on AWS. We have 2 MR jobs that write to ES - 1 of them works fine, and one of them
takes forever due to 10-20% of tasks failing in the way I've described. So I don't think it's any kind of
network/firewall issue. There are no nightly backups related to ES or anything.

Would 25 map tasks batch writing to a 4-node Elasticsearch cluster cause it so much pain that it stops responding to
writes? If I ssh to the ES nodes while this job is running and some tasks are failing, it doesn't seem like ES is under
much stress.

Thanks,

You can always enable TRACE though that is likely to create way too much information in production and slow things
down considerably.

The first thing you can do is minimize the batch size to give ES more breathing space by minimizing the batch size
(say to 512KB) or the number
of entries (500 instead of 1k, etc...).
However the error indicates a network issue not an Elasticsearch one so check whether there's some type of
service/network/firewall initialization happening at night. Do the errors occur around the same time? Is there some
backup procedure that potentially kicks in?

Potentially you can try and increase the default http timeout (es.http.timeout) from 1m to 3m or so. However this is
really a patch since if the ES server doesn't return a response in 1m, it means things are not going well at all.

    Is there anything else we could try here to debug elasticsearch-hadoop being unable to write to Elasticsearch? We're
    still seeing the same number of these fails during the nightly batch runs even after switching to
    2.0.2.BUILD-SNAPSHOT,
    and I don't see any additional lines from org.elasticsearch.hadoop.____rest in the tasktracker logs after adding
    <logger
    name="org.elasticsearch.__hadoop.rest" level="DEBUG"/> to our logback.xml.

    Here are example logs for a task that failed this morning:
    https://gist.__githubusercontent.com/zcox/__c5c81f4f8ee26d7bedbf/raw/__ac9bef7bfe3a8e1ef69a62aabe4c7c__3983882f19/gistfile1.txt

    Is it reasonable to expect 4 Elasticsearch nodes to handle the batch write volume from 5 Hadoop nodes (25 map
    tasks)?

         Hi Costin - by "bulk size/entries number" are you referring to the es.batch.size.bytes and
    es.batch.size.entries
         config values described here?

    http://www.elasticsearch.org/__guide/en/elasticsearch/hadoop/__master/configuration.html#__configuration-serialization
    <http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/hadoop/master/configuration.html#configuration-serialization>

         It looks like the only elasticsearch-related config values we're setting is this:

         es.input.json = true

         So we must be using default values for those es.batch.size config values.

Our 4 ES nodes are all m1.large (
Amazon EC2 Instance Comparison) and our 5 Hadoop nodes are
all m1.xlarge (Amazon EC2 Instance Comparison).

Thanks for the troubleshooting pointers - we'll do some more research.

What type of AWS instances are you using? Virtualization tends to
interfere in various ways with a running system - sometime for good,
sometimes for worse.

The number of tasks is good to compute the total number of data and
entries you are throwing at ES at one time. You are looking at a maximum of
25 MBs or 25K entries against the 4 node Elastic. Depending on how beefy
the machines are and what type of storage and mapping you have, it might be
quick or slow - we can only guess. Try using Marvel or other monitoring
tools so you can see whether there's load building up or if anything
unusual happens.

Since it's unclear what the issue might be, take baby steps [1] and start
with minimal load (smaller bulk size + less tasks) see whether there are
any issues and keep on going.

Our Hadoop and Elasticsearch are all on AWS. We have 2 MR jobs that write
to ES - 1 of them works fine, and one of them
takes forever due to 10-20% of tasks failing in the way I've described.
So I don't think it's any kind of
network/firewall issue. There are no nightly backups related to ES or
anything.

Would 25 map tasks batch writing to a 4-node Elasticsearch cluster cause
it so much pain that it stops responding to
writes? If I ssh to the ES nodes while this job is running and some tasks
are failing, it doesn't seem like ES is under
much stress.

Thanks,

You can always enable TRACE though that is likely to create way too

much information in production and slow things
down considerably.

The first thing you can do is minimize the batch size to give ES more

breathing space by minimizing the batch size
(say to 512KB) or the number
of entries (500 instead of 1k, etc...).
However the error indicates a network issue not an Elasticsearch one
so check whether there's some type of
service/network/firewall initialization happening at night. Do the
errors occur around the same time? Is there some
backup procedure that potentially kicks in?

Potentially you can try and increase the default http timeout

(es.http.timeout) from 1m to 3m or so. However this is
really a patch since if the ES server doesn't return a response in
1m, it means things are not going well at all.

elasticsearch-hadoop being unable to write to Elasticsearch? We're

    Here are example logs for a task that failed this morning:

    Is it reasonable to expect 4 Elasticsearch nodes to handle the

batch write volume from 5 Hadoop nodes (25 map
tasks)?

         Hi Costin - by "bulk size/entries number" are you referring

to the es.batch.size.bytes and

         It looks like the only elasticsearch-related config values

we're setting is this:

         es.input.json = true

         So we must be using default values for those es.batch.size
