Configuring jute.maxbuffer on ZooKeeper Nodes

["Kamoliddinov, Elbek" <el...@sap.com>]

Hi Zookeeper community, we had a system issue and we hit max buffer limit on zk side, Now to analyze I am trying to set up zk from snapshot that has big znode in it. When I start the standalone zk I get:
2018-09-18 10:21:13,358 [myid:] - INFO  [main:Util@190] - Invalid snapshot /path/tmp/version-2/snapshot.520000fe8e len = 808529968 byte = 56

I tried various ways to set -Djute.maxbuffer=1610612736 but still get the same error.
I changed zoo.cfg and added following line:
jute.maxbuffer=1610612736

and created zookeeper-env.sh file under conf directory where zoo.cfg and the file content is:
JVMFLAGS="$JVMFLAGS -Djute.maxbuffer=1610612736"

Also created java.env file under conf dir and it has:
export JVMFLAGS="-Djute.maxbuffer=1610612736"

still no luck.

I tried to change zkServer.sh to have -Djute.maxbuffer=1610612736 as extra jvm param without any luck.

On solr page it mentions 3 ways which I tried without any luck. https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_4/setting-up-an-external-zookeeper-ensemble.html

Anybody has any idea what I might be doing wrong.

Thanks.
Elbek.

Hi Elbek,

jute.maxbuffer is stored as an int value, which means it's maximum value is
231-1 = 2147483647.
The buffer itself is an array, where the theoretical maximum size is the
same 231-1 = 2147483647 (but it depends on the JVM)
Of course it doesn't mean you should use that large values since you have
to store the buffer on the Java heap, which also limits the buffer size.
Just as Steph mentioned I would set it to 4MB too, you can go a bit higher,
but we should never use much higher numbers.

If you need a huge jute.maxbuffer it is a good idea to check your
application why you need it.

Regards, Tamaas

Be careful not to set it too high as ZK seems to ignore it then.
I have a SOLR installation where I set it to several GB and it still had
the issue.
Set it to something reasonable, like 4MB or so.
