npawar opened a new issue #6308: URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-pinot/issues/6308
Just in the last day, we had 2 reports of consumption stopping completely for a partition, because of some error occurrences in consumption. Example 1: User saw this error, and reported that consumption is totally stopped for that partition. ``` ERROR [LLRealtimeSegmentDataManager_spanEventView__0__15__20201201T0448Z] [spanEventView__0__15__20201201T0448Z] Could not build segment java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot create output dir: /var/pinot/server/data/index/spanEventView_REALTIME/_tmp/tmp-spanEventView__0__15__20201201T0448Z-160688315943 ``` This is coming from LLRealtimeSegmentDataManager#buildSegmentInternal(). As a result of this, we reach this in LLRealtimeSegmentDataManager ``` // We could not build the segment. Go into error state. _state = State.ERROR; ``` Problem: After that, the consumer thread exits. I believe an assumption is made here that some other replica will have built the segment, and this errored replica can simply download the segment. **But this assumption fails if user has only 1 replica.** Lack of detection mechanism: Because the ideal state and external view match, the Cluster Manager continues to report GOOD. Users find out of the problem because they notice data lag in their application. Most users who are just starting out have not set up metrics monitoring, so asking them to look for LLC_PARTITION_CONSUMING metric is also not an option. Lack of easy recovery mechanism: The validation manager does nothing to fix this, because the ideal state is still CONSUMING and segment metadata is still IN_PROGRESS. Only way to recover is restarting that server. Example 2: Again, user reported that consumption is totally stopped on the partition, and reported this error. ``` Exception while executing a state transition task

CONSUMING was being processed (during memory allocation for beginning consumption of a new segment. The consumption loop hasn't been reached). The state transition method `onBecomeOnlineFromOffline` threw the exception, and the segment must've gone into ERROR state in the external view. Ideal state will still be CONSUMING, and segment metadata will be IN_PROGRESS. Problem: Similar to above case, the ideal state and segment metadata indicate that nothing is wrong with the system. But consumption is not happening, the consumer thread never even started. Lack of detection mechanism: This should've been flagged on the Cluster Manager as BAD, as there is a mismatch between IS and EV. Lack of recovery mechanism: Again, the validation manager won't fix this, because it only looks at Ideal State, and according to the IS everything looks fine. Only way to recover will be restart of the server. We need 1. A way to restart consumption automatically in both cases - Possibly make Validation Manager handle both these cases. 2. A way to track state of consumers for every CONSUMING segment - an API on the controller would be ideal ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
