AWS EMR S3DistCp: The auxService:mapreduce_shuffle does not exist


I am connected to an AWS EMR v5.4.0 instance over SSH and I want to call s3distcp. This link demonstrates how to setup an emr step to call it, but when I run it I get the following error:

Container launch failed for container_1492469375740_0001_01_000002 : org.apache.hadoop.yarn.exceptions.InvalidAuxServiceException: The auxService:mapreduce_shuffle does not exist

I followed the instructions here but it still didn't work.


Solution

  • It turns out I needed to restart the yarn nodemanager service after configuring mapreduce_shuffle:

    $ initctl list | grep yarn
    hadoop-yarn-resourcemanager start/running, process 1256
    hadoop-yarn-proxyserver start/running, process 702
    hadoop-yarn-nodemanager start/running, process 896
    $ sudo stop hadoop-yarn-nodemanager
    $ sudo start hadoop-yarn-nodemanager
    

    Also, in case it helps the yarn-site.xml file was located at: /etc/hadoop/conf/yarn-site.xml. It already had an entry for yarn.nodemanager.aux-services but mapreduce_shuffle wasn't configured:

    <property>
      <name>yarn.nodemanager.aux-services</name>
      <value>spark_shuffle,</value>
    </property>
    
    <property>
      <name>yarn.nodemanager.aux-services.spark_shuffle.class</name>
      <value>org.apache.spark.network.yarn.YarnShuffleService</value>
    </property>
    

    So I added it like this:

    <property>
      <name>yarn.nodemanager.aux-services</name>
      <value>spark_shuffle,mapreduce_shuffle</value>
    </property>
    
    <property>
      <name>yarn.nodemanager.aux-services.mapreduce_shuffle.class</name>
      <value>org.apache.hadoop.mapred.ShuffleHandler</value>
    </property>
    
    <property>
      <name>yarn.nodemanager.aux-services.spark_shuffle.class</name>
      <value>org.apache.spark.network.yarn.YarnShuffleService</value>
    </property>
