Apache Spark for anonymous UID (no username)
I am running Apache node spark slave on OpenShift platform. OpenShift internally runs the docker image as an anonymous user (User with no name, but only UID). I am getting the following exception
17/07/17 16:46:53 INFO SignalUtils: Registered signal handler for INT

code> I tried to set the following properties on spark-default.conf, still no use.
spark.eventLog.enabled false

Could you please help me on this issue.

Here's an alternative approach that doesn't require nss_wrapper
.
By default, OpenShift containers run with an anonymous user ID and group ID 0
(also called "root"). First, set up your images to be /etc/passwd
owned by group-id 0
and have write access to the group, for example this Dockerfile snippet:
RUN chgrp root /etc/passwd && chmod ug+rw /etc/passwd
Then you can add the following logic when starting the container, for example the following script can be used like ENTRYPOINT
:
#!/bin/bash
myuid=$(id -u)
mygid=$(id -g)
uidentry=$(getent passwd $myuid)
if [ -z "$uidentry" ] ; then
# assumes /etc/passwd has root-group (gid 0) ownership
echo "$myuid:x:$myuid:$mygid:anonymous uid:/tmp:/bin/false" >> /etc/passwd
fi
exec "$@"
This script entry point will automatically provide a passwd file entry for the anonymous uid, so the required tools don't crash.
There is a nice blog post on this and related topics regarding anonymous uids in OpenShift: https://blog.openshift.com/jupyter-on-openshift-part-6-running-as-an-assigned-user-id/
(I'm keeping this answer because it's useful to know about nss_wrapper
, however this other answer works without the need for an installation or user nss_wrapper)
Spark wants to find its UID in passwd. This integral kink can be resolved with nss_wrapper; a good example of using this solution at the entry point for an image can be found here:
https://github.com/radanalyticsio/openshift-spark/blob/master/scripts/spark/added/entrypoint
# spark likes to be able to lookup a username for the running UID, if
# no name is present fake it.
cat /etc/passwd > /tmp/passwd
echo "$(id -u):x:$(id -u):$(id -g):dynamic uid:$SPARK_HOME:/bin/false" >> /tmp/passwd
export NSS_WRAPPER_PASSWD=/tmp/passwd
# NSS_WRAPPER_GROUP must be set for NSS_WRAPPER_PASSWD to be used
export NSS_WRAPPER_GROUP=/etc/group
export LD_PRELOAD=libnss_wrapper.so
exec "$@"
If you are interested in Spark previews that can be used in Openshift, I recommend starting here:
https://github.com/radanalyticsio/openshift-spark
These images were generated as part of a tool for the community project Radanalytics.io, which has created many tools to easily create spark clusters in Openshift. You can find out more about this project here:
