HBase Table does not exists, but exists

Often we come across this situation with HBase that, table creation says: "ERROR: Table already exists: hbaseFeatures!", however that table wont exist when you list tables.




This Often happens when HBase is upgraded to new version, but then there is stale data in Zookeeper. If you are not interested in those tables any more, One way to solve this is to Clear the corresponding data in Zookeeper. Here are some instructions:




Now try to create the HBase table, which should succeed.



All happy!

Spark Cluster Mode - Too many open files

When running complex Spark Jobs in Cluster mode (Yarn-Client or Yarn-Cluster) mode, it is quite possible the default ulimit (number of open files) of 1024 is not sufficient and hence gets error "Too many open files". One way to address this is issue is by increasing the ulimit size. Steps (as root user): 1) vim /etc/sysctl.conf, append the file with:     fs.file-max = 65536 2) vim /etc/security/limits.conf, append the file with: * soft nproc 65535 * hard nproc 65535 * soft nofile 65535 * hard nofile 65535 3) ulimit -n 65535

Binary Data to Float using Spark SQL

Often when there is massive data communication among the enterprise applications, the data is converted to binary datatype, for reasons like: Faster I/O, Smaller Size, any type of data can be represented, etc. This brings in need to convert binary back to known/readable data type for further analysis/processing etc. For example, here floating point data is represented in Decimal Array[Byte] then stored in Binary format. Ex: [62, -10, 0, 0] Whole floating point equivalent is: 0.480 To achieve above conversion using Apache Spark Sql DataFrames: Voila!

HDFS filenames without rest of the file details

Get the list of file names and absolute path alone from HDFS: General hdfs list output would be: $ hdfs dfs -ls -rw-r--r--   3 foo bar    6346268 2016-12-28 02:52 /user/foo/data/file007.csv -rw-r--r--   3 foo bar    4397850 2016-12-28 02:52 /user/foo/data/file014.csv -rw-r--r--   3 foo bar   13297361 2016-12-28 02:52 /user/foo/data/file020.csv -rw-r--r--   3 foo bar   10400852 2016-12-28 02:53 /user/foo/data/file118.csv -rw-r--r--   3 foo bar   10184639 2016-12-28 02:52 /user/foo/data/file205.csv -rw-r--r--   3 foo bar    5542293 2016-12-28 02:53 /user/foo/data/file214.csv -rw-r--r--   3 foo bar    6085128 2016-12-28 02:53 /user/foo/data/file307.csv But we would need get just the absolute hdfs file paths especially in shell scripts to perform CRUD operations, like: /user/foo/data/file007.csv /user/foo/data/file014.csv /user/foo/data/file020.csv /user/foo/data/file118.csv /user/foo/data/file205.csv /user/foo/data/file214.csv One way to achieve this is using awk, like: $
