Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-13249: --------------------------------------- Please spell out txns in the description of *hive.count.open.txns.interval* in HiveConf.java (and a period at the end would be nice, even though it's a sentence fragment): {code} + HIVE_COUNT_OPEN_TXNS_INTERVAL("hive.count.open.txns.interval", "1s", + new TimeValidator(TimeUnit.SECONDS), "Time in seconds between checks to count open txns"), {code} > Hard upper bound on number of open transactions > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-13249 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13249 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Transactions > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Wei Zheng > Assignee: Wei Zheng > Attachments: HIVE-13249.1.patch, HIVE-13249.2.patch, > HIVE-13249.3.patch, HIVE-13249.4.patch, HIVE-13249.5.patch > > > We need to have a safeguard by adding an upper bound for open transactions to > avoid huge number of open-transaction requests, usually due to improper > configuration of clients such as Storm. > Once that limit is reached, clients will start failing. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
