TeraSort Benchmark

This repository provides an execution wrapper for the Hadoop TeraSort 
benchmark. TeraSort is a widely used benchmark for Hadoop distributions. As 
the name implies, it is a sorting benchmark. The TeraSort package includes 
3 map/reduce applications: TeraGen (data generator), TeraSort (map/reduce 
sorting), and TeraValidate (sort validation). For more information see:

https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/api/org/apache/hadoop/examples/terasort/package-summary.html


RUNTIME PARAMETERS
Use of run.sh requires the Hadoop cluster to be provisioned and accessible to 
the user via the 'hadoop' command. The following runtime parameters and 
environment metadata may be specified (using run.sh arguments):

* collectd_rrd              If set, collectd rrd stats will be captured from 
                            --collectd_rrd_dir. To do so, when testing starts,
                            existing directories in --collectd_rrd_dir will 
                            be renamed to .bak, and upon test completion 
                            any directories not ending in .bak will be zipped
                            and saved along with other test artifacts (as 
                            collectd-rrd.zip). User MUST have sudo privileges
                            to use this option

                            default is /var/lib/collectd/rrd

* hadoop_conf_dir           Hadoop conf directory (see 'settings_*' output 
                            parameters below). Default is [hadoop_home]/etc/hadoop

* hadoop_home               The base directory where hadoop is installed. Default 
                            is /usr/local/hadoop. If [hadoop_home]/bin is not 
                            already included in PATH, it will be added

* meta_compute_service      The name of the compute service this test pertains
                            to. May also be specified using the environment 
                            variable bm_compute_service
                            
* meta_compute_service_id   The id of the compute service this test pertains
                            to. Added to saved results. May also be specified 
                            using the environment variable bm_compute_service_id
                            
* meta_cpu                  CPU descriptor - if not specified, it will be set 
                            using the 'model name' attribute in /proc/cpuinfo

                            the environment variable bm_instance_id

* meta_hdfs_nodes           Number of data nodes in the HDFS cluster. If not 
                            specified, an attempt to determine this value will 
                            be tried using 'hdfs dfsadmin -report'. However, 
                            only the 'hdfs' user has access to this information 
                            using that command and if not accessible, the value 
                            of this parameter defaults to 1

                            to. May also be specified using the environment

* meta_region               The compute service region this test pertains to. 
                            May also be specified using the environment 
                            variable bm_region

                            specified using the environment variable 
                            bm_storage_config

                            completion
                            
* output                    The output directory to use for writing test data 
                            (logs and artifacts). If not specified, the current 
                            working directory will be used
                            
* tera_args                 Optional -D arguments for teragen, terasort and 
                            teravalidate - multiple OK
                            e.g. "dfs.block.size=134217728". Any of the *_args
                            parameters may contain the following tokens:
                              {cpus} : number of CPU cores on the host

                              e.g. mapred.map.tasks={cpus}*{nodes}
                            or a ternary expression - reduce jobs are 64GB but 
                            at least equal to the number of cluster nodes:
                              e.g. mapreduce.job.reduces={nodes}>({gb}/64)?{nodes}:({gb}/64)
                            
* teragen_args              Optional -D arguments for teragen - multiple OK
                            e.g. "dfs.block.size=134217728"
                              
* teragen_balance           when set, the hdfs cluster will be balanced 
                            to this threshold following execution of teragen 
                            (sudo -u hdfs hdfs balancer -threshold [teragen_balance])
                            User must have sudo privilege. The balance 
                            operation can be very slow - increase the 
                            hdfs-site.xml property 
                            dfs.datanode.balance.bandwidthPerSec from the 
                            default 8 Mb/s (1048576) something higher to 
                            increase balancing speed. Value should be between
                            3 and 50

                            deleted prior to testing. Default is 
                            'terasort-input'
                            
* teragen_rows              Number of 100 byte rows to generate - default is 
                            10 billion == 1 TB. This parameter will be 
                            validated against the available HDFS capacity 
                            prior to test execution
                            
* terasort_args             Optional -D arguments for terasort - multiple OK
                            e.g. "mapred.map.tasks=4"
                            
* terasort_dir              hdfs directory where terasort output should be 
                            written to - if it already exists, it will be 
                            deleted prior to testing. Default is 
                            'terasort-output'
                            
* teravalidate_args         Optional -D arguments for teravalidate - multiple 
                            OK
                            
* teravalidate_dir          hdfs directory where teravalidate output should be 
                            written to - if it already exists, it will be 
                            deleted prior to testing. Default is 
                            'terasort-validate'
                            
* verbose                   Show verbose output
