YARN Timeline supports a notion of Entities. Entities are uniquely identified by a "Type" and an "Id". Entities can be related to other entities. Tez uses a set of Entity types:

  • TEZ_APPLICATION
    • Application-level data
    • Contains configuration used to initialize the Tez session/AM.
  • TEZ_APPLICATION_ATTEMPT
    • Application attempt specific data
  • TEZ_DAG_ID
    • DAG-specific data
    • Contains the dagPlan info as well as additional configuration info
    • Also contains the final status of the DAG, counters, diagnostics, etc.
    • Has event information on when it started, finished, etc.
  • TEZ_VERTEX_ID
    • Vertex-specific data
    • Also contains the final status of the Vertex, counters, diagnostics, etc.
    • Has event information on when it finished initializing, started, finished, etc.
  • TEZ_TASK_ID
    • Task-specific data
    • Also contains the final status of the Task, counters, diagnostics, etc.
    • Has event information on when it started, finished, etc.
  • TEZ_TASK_ATTEMPT_ID
    • TaskAttempt-specific data such as which container/node the attempt ran on.
    • Also contains the final status of the Attempt, counters, diagnostics, etc.
    • Has event information on when it started, finished, etc.

From a relationship perspective, you can think of TaskAttempt being a child of Task, Task a child of Vertex and Vertex a child of DAG. This relationship allows for pulling down all the necessary info for a given DAG.

Other then the above, Tez UI at times uses one more entity. And that is for displaying Hive query text in DAG details. When a hive query is run using latest version of Tez (0.7.1+), the query text would be added as part of the DAG JSON. For older versions when this is not available, the UI loads its from HIVE_QUERY_ID entity.

How to Build the Tez Ambari View

Tez UI and CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing):

Tez UI is a pure web application that runs completely in the browser, and by default the browser restricts loading data from a different domain/origin. For instance if the UI is hosted at http://localhost:8080/tez-ui, the UI wont be able to load data from ATS that’s running at http://localhost:8188. In such a case, to load data from ATS, you would have to enable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing at the ATS side. When ATS is provides history data (data for completed applications), Tez UI directly communicate with Tez Application Master via the RM web proxy for real-time data (running application). Hence you might hit a CORS issue with running application if CORS is not enabled in RM and the required configurations are not set.

UI errors for CORS:

In the latest UI, an yellow error bar will pop-up at the bottom with following errors if CORS is not enabled.

  • When CORS is not enabled in ATS side: Adapter operation failed » Timeline server (ATS) is out of reach. Either it's down, or CORS is not enabled.
  • When CORS is not enabled in RM side: Application Master (AM) is out of reach. Either it's down, or CORS is not enabled for YARN ResourceManager. & Resource Manager (RM) is out of reach. Either it's down, or CORS is not enabled.

How to confirm if its a CORS issue:

Click on the error message in the error-bar. It would display the error details with the REST endpoint URL that caused the error (In older versions of the UI, URL was part of the message). Try accessing this URL from a new tab, and if you are able to access it. Then you can confirm that its a CORS issue.

Fixing CORS issue:

By setting the following configurations and restarting the respective services you must be able to enable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing.

  1. Enable CORS in timeline server side by following https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/TimelineServer.html. CORS configuration can be found under "Web and RPC Configuration".
  2. Enable CORS in the RM side by following https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-site/ResourceManagerRest.html#Enabling_CORS_support
  3. As mentioned in https://tez.apache.org/tez-ui.html, ensure that the tez.tez-ui.history-url.base configuration is set to the address where UI is hosted?
