[jira] [Comment Edited] (SPARK-27499) Support mapping spark.local.dir to hostPath volume

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27499?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16860519#comment-16860519 ]

Hi, [~dongjoon], I know SPARK_LOCAL_DIRS can be mounted as emptyDir. However, emptyDir just one directory on node. I opened this Jira to track a feature to setting multiple directories to full utilize the nodes' disks bandwidth for spilling, which I think currently it can not be achieve through setting spark.local.dir. Even I set to multiple dirs, they still map to one directory on node.

 

This Jira was intended to use hostPath volumes mounts as spark.local.dir, which needs build mountVolumeFeature to built before localDirFeature, while currently the localDirFeature is built before mountVolumeFeature.

This Jira is intended to use hostPath volumes mounts as spark.local.dir, for exmaple:

spark.kubernetes.executor.volumes.hostPath.spark-local-dir-1.mount.path=/data/mnt-x

> Currently, the k8s executor builder mount spark.local.dir as emptyDir or memory, it should satisfy some small workload, while in some heavily workload like TPCDS, both of them can have some problem, such as pods are evicted due to disk pressure when using emptyDir, and OOM when using tmpfs.
> In particular on cloud environment, users may allocate cluster with minimum configuration and add cloud storage when running workload. In this case, we can specify multiple elastic storage as spark.local.dir to accelerate the spilling.
