*Note*: Apache Mesos support is deprecated as of Apache Spark 3.2.0. It will be removed in a future version.

Spark can run on hardware clusters managed by [Apache Mesos](http://mesos.apache.org/).

The advantages of deploying Spark with Mesos include:

- dynamic partitioning between Spark and other
  [frameworks](https://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/frameworks/)
- scalable partitioning between multiple instances of Spark

# Security

Security features like authentication are not enabled by default. When deploying a cluster that is open to the internet
or an untrusted network, it's important to secure access to the cluster to prevent unauthorized applications
from running on the cluster.
Please see [Spark Security](security.html) and the specific security sections in this doc before running Spark.

# How it Works

In a standalone cluster deployment, the cluster manager in the below diagram is a Spark master
instance.  When using Mesos, the Mesos master replaces the Spark master as the cluster manager.

<p style="text-align: center;">
  <img src="img/cluster-overview.png" title="Spark cluster components" alt="Spark cluster components" />
</p>

Now when a driver creates a job and starts issuing tasks for scheduling, Mesos determines what
machines handle what tasks.  Because it takes into account other frameworks when scheduling these
many short-lived tasks, multiple frameworks can coexist on the same cluster without resorting to a
static partitioning of resources.

To get started, follow the steps below to install Mesos and deploy Spark jobs via Mesos.


# Installing Mesos

Spark {{site.SPARK_VERSION}} is designed for use with Mesos {{site.MESOS_VERSION}} or newer and does not
require any special patches of Mesos. File and environment-based secrets support requires Mesos 1.3.0 or
newer.

If you already have a Mesos cluster running, you can skip this Mesos installation step.

Otherwise, installing Mesos for Spark is no different than installing Mesos for use by other
frameworks.  You can install Mesos either from source or using prebuilt packages.

## From Source

To install Apache Mesos from source, follow these steps:

1. Download a Mesos release from a
   [mirror](http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/mesos/{{site.MESOS_VERSION}}/)
2. Follow the Mesos [Getting Started](http://mesos.apache.org/getting-started) page for compiling and
   installing Mesos

**Note:** If you want to run Mesos without installing it into the default paths on your system
(e.g., if you lack administrative privileges to install it), pass the
`--prefix` option to `configure` to tell it where to install. For example, pass
`--prefix=/home/me/mesos`. By default the prefix is `/usr/local`.

## Third-Party Packages

The Apache Mesos project only publishes source releases, not binary packages.  But other
third party projects publish binary releases that may be helpful in setting Mesos up.

One of those is Mesosphere.  To install Mesos using the binary releases provided by Mesosphere:

1. Download Mesos installation package from [downloads page](https://open.mesosphere.com/downloads/mesos/)
2. Follow their instructions for installation and configuration

The Mesosphere installation documents suggest setting up ZooKeeper to handle Mesos master failover,
but Mesos can be run without ZooKeeper using a single master as well.

## Verification

To verify that the Mesos cluster is ready for Spark, navigate to the Mesos master webui at port
`:5050`  Confirm that all expected machines are present in the agents tab.


# Connecting Spark to Mesos

To use Mesos from Spark, you need a Spark binary package available in a place accessible by Mesos, and
a Spark driver program configured to connect to Mesos.

Alternatively, you can also install Spark in the same location in all the Mesos agents, and configure
`spark.mesos.executor.home` (defaults to SPARK_HOME) to point to that location.

## Authenticating to Mesos

When Mesos Framework authentication is enabled it is necessary to provide a principal and secret by which to authenticate Spark to Mesos.  Each Spark job will register with Mesos as a separate framework.

Depending on your deployment environment you may wish to create a single set of framework credentials that are shared across all users or create framework credentials for each user.  Creating and managing framework credentials should be done following the Mesos [Authentication documentation](http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/authentication/).

Framework credentials may be specified in a variety of ways depending on your deployment environment and security requirements.  The most simple way is to specify the `spark.mesos.principal` and `spark.mesos.secret` values directly in your Spark configuration.  Alternatively you may specify these values indirectly by instead specifying `spark.mesos.principal.file` and `spark.mesos.secret.file`, these settings point to files containing the principal and secret.  These files must be plaintext files in UTF-8 encoding.  Combined with appropriate file ownership and mode/ACLs this provides a more secure way to specify these credentials.

Additionally, if you prefer to use environment variables you can specify all of the above via environment variables instead, the environment variable names are simply the configuration settings uppercased with `.` replaced with `_` e.g. `SPARK_MESOS_PRINCIPAL`.

### Credential Specification Preference Order

Please note that if you specify multiple ways to obtain the credentials then the following preference order applies.  Spark will use the first valid value found and any subsequent values are ignored:

- `spark.mesos.principal` configuration setting
- `SPARK_MESOS_PRINCIPAL` environment variable
- `spark.mesos.principal.file` configuration setting
- `SPARK_MESOS_PRINCIPAL_FILE` environment variable

An equivalent order applies for the secret.  Essentially we prefer the configuration to be specified directly rather than indirectly by files, and we prefer that configuration settings are used over environment variables.

### Deploy to a Mesos running on Secure Sockets

If you want to deploy a Spark Application into a Mesos cluster that is running in a secure mode there are some environment variables that need to be set.

- `LIBPROCESS_SSL_ENABLED=true` enables SSL communication
- `LIBPROCESS_SSL_VERIFY_CERT=false` verifies the ssl certificate
- `LIBPROCESS_SSL_KEY_FILE=pathToKeyFile.key` path to key
- `LIBPROCESS_SSL_CERT_FILE=pathToCRTFile.crt` the certificate file to be used

All options can be found at http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/ssl/

Then submit happens as described in Client mode or Cluster mode below

## Uploading Spark Package

When Mesos runs a task on a Mesos agent for the first time, that agent must have a Spark binary
package for running the Spark Mesos executor backend.
The Spark package can be hosted at any Hadoop-accessible URI, including HTTP via `http://`,
[Amazon Simple Storage Service](http://aws.amazon.com/s3) via `s3n://`, or HDFS via `hdfs://`.

To use a precompiled package:

1. Download a Spark binary package from the Spark [download page](https://spark.apache.org/downloads.html)
2. Upload to hdfs/http/s3

To host on HDFS, use the Hadoop fs put command: `hadoop fs -put spark-{{site.SPARK_VERSION}}.tar.gz
/path/to/spark-{{site.SPARK_VERSION}}.tar.gz`


Or if you are using a custom-compiled version of Spark, you will need to create a package using
the `dev/make-distribution.sh` script included in a Spark source tarball/checkout.

1. Download and build Spark using the instructions [here](index.html)
2. Create a binary package using `./dev/make-distribution.sh --tgz`.
3. Upload archive to http/s3/hdfs


## Using a Mesos Master URL

The Master URLs for Mesos are in the form `mesos://host:5050` for a single-master Mesos
cluster, or `mesos://zk://host1:2181,host2:2181,host3:2181/mesos` for a multi-master Mesos cluster using ZooKeeper.

## Client Mode

In client mode, a Spark Mesos framework is launched directly on the client machine and waits for the driver output.

The driver needs some configuration in `spark-env.sh` to interact properly with Mesos:

1. In `spark-env.sh` set some environment variables:
 * `export MESOS_NATIVE_JAVA_LIBRARY=<path to libmesos.so>`. This path is typically
   `<prefix>/lib/libmesos.so` where the prefix is `/usr/local` by default. See Mesos installation
   instructions above. On Mac OS X, the library is called `libmesos.dylib` instead of
   `libmesos.so`.
 * `export SPARK_EXECUTOR_URI=<URL of spark-{{site.SPARK_VERSION}}.tar.gz uploaded above>`.
2. Also set `spark.executor.uri` to `<URL of spark-{{site.SPARK_VERSION}}.tar.gz>`.

Now when starting a Spark application against the cluster, pass a `mesos://`
URL as the master when creating a `SparkContext`. For example:

{% highlight scala %}
val conf = new SparkConf()
  .setMaster("mesos://HOST:5050")
  .setAppName("My app")
  .set("spark.executor.uri", "<path to spark-{{site.SPARK_VERSION}}.tar.gz uploaded above>")
val sc = new SparkContext(conf)
{% endhighlight %}

(You can also use [`spark-submit`](submitting-applications.html) and configure `spark.executor.uri`
in the [conf/spark-defaults.conf](configuration.html#loading-default-configurations) file.)

When running a shell, the `spark.executor.uri` parameter is inherited from `SPARK_EXECUTOR_URI`, so
it does not need to be redundantly passed in as a system property.

{% highlight bash %}
./bin/spark-shell --master mesos://host:5050
{% endhighlight %}

## Cluster mode

Spark on Mesos also supports cluster mode, where the driver is launched in the cluster and the client
can find the results of the driver from the Mesos Web UI.

To use cluster mode, you must start the `MesosClusterDispatcher` in your cluster via the `sbin/start-mesos-dispatcher.sh` script,
passing in the Mesos master URL (e.g: mesos://host:5050). This starts the `MesosClusterDispatcher` as a daemon running on the host.
Note that the `MesosClusterDispatcher` does not support authentication.  You should ensure that all network access to it is
protected (port 7077 by default).

By setting the Mesos proxy config property (requires mesos version >= 1.4), `--conf spark.mesos.proxy.baseURL=http://localhost:5050` when launching the dispatcher, the mesos sandbox URI for each driver is added to the mesos dispatcher UI.

If you like to run the `MesosClusterDispatcher` with Marathon, you need to run the `MesosClusterDispatcher` in the foreground (i.e: `./bin/spark-class org.apache.spark.deploy.mesos.MesosClusterDispatcher`). Note that the `MesosClusterDispatcher` not yet supports multiple instances for HA.

The `MesosClusterDispatcher` also supports writing recovery state into Zookeeper. This will allow the `MesosClusterDispatcher` to be able to recover all submitted and running containers on relaunch.   In order to enable this recovery mode, you can set SPARK_DAEMON_JAVA_OPTS in spark-env by configuring `spark.deploy.recoveryMode` and related spark.deploy.zookeeper.* configurations.
For more information about these configurations please refer to the configurations [doc](configuration.html#deploy).

You can also specify any additional jars required by the `MesosClusterDispatcher` in the classpath by setting the environment variable SPARK_DAEMON_CLASSPATH in spark-env.

From the client, you can submit a job to Mesos cluster by running `spark-submit` and specifying the master URL
to the URL of the `MesosClusterDispatcher` (e.g: mesos://dispatcher:7077). You can view driver statuses on the
Spark cluster Web UI.

For example:
{% highlight bash %}
./bin/spark-submit \
  --class org.apache.spark.examples.SparkPi \
  --master mesos://207.184.161.138:7077 \
  --deploy-mode cluster \
  --supervise \
  --executor-memory 20G \
  --total-executor-cores 100 \
  http://path/to/examples.jar \
  1000
{% endhighlight %}


Note that jars or python files that are passed to spark-submit should be URIs reachable by Mesos agents, as the Spark driver doesn't automatically upload local jars.

# Mesos Run Modes

Spark can run over Mesos in two modes: "coarse-grained" (default) and
"fine-grained" (deprecated).

## Coarse-Grained

In "coarse-grained" mode, each Spark executor runs as a single Mesos
task.  Spark executors are sized according to the following
configuration variables:

* Executor memory: `spark.executor.memory`
* Executor cores: `spark.executor.cores`
* Number of executors: `spark.cores.max`/`spark.executor.cores`

Please see the [Spark Configuration](configuration.html) page for
details and default values.

Executors are brought up eagerly when the application starts, until
`spark.cores.max` is reached.  If you don't set `spark.cores.max`, the
Spark application will consume all resources offered to it by Mesos,
so we, of course, urge you to set this variable in any sort of
multi-tenant cluster, including one which runs multiple concurrent
Spark applications.

The scheduler will start executors round-robin on the offers Mesos
gives it, but there are no spread guarantees, as Mesos does not
provide such guarantees on the offer stream.

In this mode Spark executors will honor port allocation if such is
provided from the user. Specifically, if the user defines
`spark.blockManager.port` in Spark configuration,
the mesos scheduler will check the available offers for a valid port
range containing the port numbers. If no such range is available it will
not launch any task. If no restriction is imposed on port numbers by the
user, ephemeral ports are used as usual. This port honouring implementation
implies one task per host if the user defines a port. In the future network,
isolation shall be supported.

The benefit of coarse-grained mode is much lower startup overhead, but
at the cost of reserving Mesos resources for the complete duration of
the application.  To configure your job to dynamically adjust to its
resource requirements, look into
[Dynamic Allocation](#dynamic-resource-allocation-with-mesos).

## Fine-Grained (deprecated)

**NOTE:** Fine-grained mode is deprecated as of Spark 2.0.0.  Consider
 using [Dynamic Allocation](#dynamic-resource-allocation-with-mesos)
 for some of the benefits.  For a full explanation see
 [SPARK-11857](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11857)

In "fine-grained" mode, each Spark task inside the Spark executor runs
as a separate Mesos task. This allows multiple instances of Spark (and
other frameworks) to share cores at a very fine granularity, where
each application gets more or fewer cores as it ramps up and down, but
it comes with an additional overhead in launching each task. This mode
may be inappropriate for low-latency requirements like interactive
queries or serving web requests.

Note that while Spark tasks in fine-grained will relinquish cores as
they terminate, they will not relinquish memory, as the JVM does not
give memory back to the Operating System.  Neither will executors
terminate when they're idle.

To run in fine-grained mode, set the `spark.mesos.coarse` property to false in your
[SparkConf](configuration.html#spark-properties):

{% highlight scala %}
conf.set("spark.mesos.coarse", "false")
{% endhighlight %}

You may also make use of `spark.mesos.constraints` to set
attribute-based constraints on Mesos resource offers. By default, all
resource offers will be accepted.

{% highlight scala %}
conf.set("spark.mesos.constraints", "os:centos7;us-east-1:false")
{% endhighlight %}

For example, Let's say `spark.mesos.constraints` is set to `os:centos7;us-east-1:false`, then the resource offers will
be checked to see if they meet both these constraints and only then will be accepted to start new executors.

To constrain where driver tasks are run, use `spark.mesos.driver.constraints`

# Mesos Docker Support

Spark can make use of a Mesos Docker containerizer by setting the property `spark.mesos.executor.docker.image`
in your [SparkConf](configuration.html#spark-properties).

The Docker image used must have an appropriate version of Spark already part of the image, or you can
have Mesos download Spark via the usual methods.

Requires Mesos version 0.20.1 or later.

Note that by default Mesos agents will not pull the image if it already exists on the agent. If you use mutable image
tags you can set `spark.mesos.executor.docker.forcePullImage` to `true` in order to force the agent to always pull the
image before running the executor. Force pulling images is only available in Mesos version 0.22 and above.

# Running Alongside Hadoop

You can run Spark and Mesos alongside your existing Hadoop cluster by just launching them as a
separate service on the machines. To access Hadoop data from Spark, a full `hdfs://` URL is required
(typically `hdfs://<namenode>:9000/path`, but you can find the right URL on your Hadoop Namenode web
UI).

In addition, it is possible to also run Hadoop MapReduce on Mesos for better resource isolation and
sharing between the two. In this case, Mesos will act as a unified scheduler that assigns cores to
either Hadoop or Spark, as opposed to having them share resources via the Linux scheduler on each
node. Please refer to [Hadoop on Mesos](https://github.com/mesos/hadoop).

In either case, HDFS runs separately from Hadoop MapReduce, without being scheduled through Mesos.

# Dynamic Resource Allocation with Mesos

Mesos supports dynamic allocation only with coarse-grained mode, which can resize the number of
executors based on statistics of the application. For general information,
see [Dynamic Resource Allocation](job-scheduling.html#dynamic-resource-allocation).

The External Shuffle Service to use is the Mesos Shuffle Service. It provides shuffle data cleanup functionality
on top of the Shuffle Service since Mesos doesn't yet support notifying another framework's
termination. To launch it, run `$SPARK_HOME/sbin/start-mesos-shuffle-service.sh` on all agent nodes, with `spark.shuffle.service.enabled` set to `true`.

This can also be achieved through Marathon, using a unique host constraint, and the following command: `./bin/spark-class org.apache.spark.deploy.mesos.MesosExternalShuffleService`.

    </p>
    <p>
      You can specify a secret's contents either (1) by value or (2) by reference.
    </p>
    <p>
      (1) To specify a secret by value, set the
      <code>spark.mesos.[driver|executor].secret.values</code>
      property, to make the secret available in the driver or executors.
      For example, to make a secret password "guessme" available to the driver process, set:

      <pre>spark.mesos.driver.secret.values=guessme</pre>
    </p>
    <p>
      (2) To specify a secret that has been placed in a secret store
      by reference, specify its name within the secret store
      by setting the <code>spark.mesos.[driver|executor].secret.names</code>
      property. For example, to make a secret password named "password" in a secret store
      available to the driver process, set:

      <pre>spark.mesos.driver.secret.names=password</pre>
    </p>
    <p>
      Note: To use a secret store, make sure one has been integrated with Mesos via a custom
      <a href="http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/secrets/">SecretResolver
      module</a>.
    </p>
    <p>
      To specify multiple secrets, provide a comma-separated list:

      <pre>spark.mesos.driver.secret.values=guessme,passwd123</pre>

      or

      <pre>spark.mesos.driver.secret.names=password1,password2</pre>

      A secret is specified by its contents and destination. These properties
      specify a secret's destination. To specify a secret's contents, see the cell above.
    </p>
    <p>
      You can specify a secret's destination in the driver or
      executors as either (1) an environment variable or (2) as a file.
    </p>
    <p>
      (1) To make an environment-based secret, set the
      <code>spark.mesos.[driver|executor].secret.envkeys</code> property.
      The secret will appear as an environment variable with the
      given name in the driver or executors. For example, to make a secret password available
      to the driver process as $PASSWORD, set:

      <pre>spark.mesos.driver.secret.envkeys=PASSWORD</pre>
    </p>
    <p>
      (2) To make a file-based secret, set the
      <code>spark.mesos.[driver|executor].secret.filenames</code> property.
      The secret will appear in the contents of a file with the given file name in
      the driver or executors. For example, to make a secret password available in a
      file named "pwdfile" in the driver process, set:

      <pre>spark.mesos.driver.secret.filenames=pwdfile</pre>
    </p>
    <p>
      Paths are relative to the container's work directory. Absolute paths must
      already exist. Note: File-based secrets require a custom
      <a href="http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/secrets/">SecretResolver
      module</a>.
    </p>
    <p>
      To specify env vars or file names corresponding to multiple secrets,
      provide a comma-separated list:

      <pre>spark.mesos.driver.secret.envkeys=PASSWORD1,PASSWORD2</pre>

      or

      <pre>spark.mesos.driver.secret.filenames=pwdfile1,pwdfile2</pre>

    Add a new queue for submitted drivers with the specified priority.
    Higher numbers indicate higher priority.
    The user can specify multiple queues to define a workload management policy for queued drivers in the dispatcher.
    A driver can then be submitted to a specific queue with <code>spark.mesos.dispatcher.queue</code>.
    By default, the dispatcher has a single queue with 0.0 priority (cannot be overridden).
    It is possible to implement a consistent and overall workload management policy throughout the lifecycle of drivers
    by mapping priority queues to weighted Mesos roles, and by specifying a
    <code>spark.mesos.role</code> along with a <code>spark.mesos.dispatcher.queue</code> when submitting an application.
    For example, with the URGENT Mesos role:
    <pre>
    spark.mesos.dispatcher.queue.URGENT=1.0

    spark.mesos.dispatcher.queue=URGENT
    spark.mesos.role=URGENT

# Troubleshooting and Debugging

A few places to look during debugging:

- Mesos master on port `:5050`
  - Agents should appear in the agents tab
  - Spark applications should appear in the frameworks tab
  - Tasks should appear in the details of a framework
  - Check the stdout and stderr of the sandbox of failed tasks
- Mesos logs
  - Master and agent logs are both in `/var/log/mesos` by default

And common pitfalls:

- Spark assembly not reachable/accessible
  - Agents must be able to download the Spark binary package from the `http://`, `hdfs://` or `s3n://` URL you gave
- Firewall blocking communications
  - Check for messages about failed connections
  - Temporarily disable firewalls for debugging and then poke appropriate holes
