title: "Ozone Containers" summary: Ozone uses containers extensively for testing. This page documents the usage and best practices of Ozone.
Docker heavily is used at the ozone development with three principal use-cases:
Let's check out each of the use-cases in more detail:
Ozone artifact contains example docker-compose directories to make it easier to start Ozone cluster in your local machine.
From distribution:
cd compose/ozone
docker-compose up -d
After a local build:
cd hadoop-ozone/dist/target/ozone-*/compose
docker-compose up -d
These environments are very important tools to start different type of Ozone clusters at any time.
To be sure that the compose files are up-to-date, we also provide acceptance test suites which start the cluster and check the basic behaviour.
The acceptance tests are part of the distribution, and you can find the test definitions in smoketest
directory.
You can start the tests from any compose directory:
For example:
cd compose/ozone
./test.sh
compose
tests are based on the apache/hadoop-runner docker image. The image itself does not contain
any Ozone jar file or binary just the helper scripts to start ozone.
hadoop-runner provdes a fixed environment to run Ozone everywhere, but the ozone distribution itself is mounted from the including directory:
(Example docker-compose fragment)
scm:
image: apache/hadoop-runner:jdk11
volumes:
- ../..:/opt/hadoop
ports:
- 9876:9876
The containers are configured based on environment variables, but because the same environment variables should be set for each containers we maintain the list of the environment variables in a separated file:
scm:
image: apache/hadoop-runner:jdk11
#...
env_file:
- ./docker-config
The docker-config file contains the list of the required environment variables:
OZONE-SITE.XML_ozone.om.address=om
OZONE-SITE.XML_ozone.om.http-address=om:9874
OZONE-SITE.XML_ozone.scm.names=scm
OZONE-SITE.XML_ozone.enabled=True
#...
As you can see we use naming convention. Based on the name of the environment variable, the
appropriate hadoop config XML (ozone-site.xml
in our case) will be generated by a
script which is
included in the hadoop-runner
base image.
The entrypoint
of the hadoop-runner
image contains a helper shell script which triggers this transformation and
can do additional actions (eg. initialize scm/om storage, download required keytabs, etc.)
based on environment variables.
The docker-compose
based approach is recommended only for local test, not for multi node cluster.
To use containers on a multi-node cluster we need a Container Orchestrator like Kubernetes.
Kubernetes example files are included in the kubernetes
folder.
Please note: all the provided images are based the hadoop-runner
image which contains all the
required tool for testing in staging environments. For production we recommend to create your own,
hardened image with your own base image.
The release can be tested with deploying any of the example clusters:
cd kubernetes/examples/ozone
kubectl apply -f
Plese note that in this case the latest released container will be downloaded from the dockerhub.
To test a development build you can create your own image and upload it to your own docker registry:
mvn clean install -f pom.ozone.xml -DskipTests -Pdocker-build,docker-push -Ddocker.image=myregistry:9000/name/ozone
The configured image will be used in all the generated kubernetes resources files (image:
keys are adjusted during the build)
cd kubernetes/examples/ozone
kubectl apply -f
You can use the source of our development images as an example:
Most of the elements are optional and just helper function but to use the provided example kubernetes resources you may need the scripts from here

# | Container | Repository | Base | Branch | Tags | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | apache/ozone | https://github.com/apache/hadoop-docker-ozone | ozone-... | hadoop-runner | 0.3.0,0.4.0,0.4.1 | For each Ozone release we create new release tag. |
2 | apache/hadoop-runner | https://github.com/apache/hadoop | docker-hadoop-runner | centos | jdk11,jdk8,latest | This is the base image used for testing Hadoop Ozone. This is a set of utilities that make it easy for us run ozone. |
