<h1 id="introduction">Introduction</h1>
<p>Don&rsquo;t know where to start? The Aurora configuration schema is very
powerful, and configurations can become quite complex for advanced use
cases.</p>
<p>For examples of simple configurations to get something up and running
quickly, check out the <a href="/documentation/0.9.0/tutorial/">Tutorial</a>. When you feel comfortable with the basics, move
on to the <a href="/documentation/0.9.0/configuration-tutorial/">Configuration Tutorial</a> for more in-depth coverage of
configuration design.</p>
<p>For additional basic configuration examples, see <a href="#BasicExamples">the end of this document</a>.</p>
<h1 id="process-schema">Process Schema</h1>
<p>Process objects consist of required <code>name</code> and <code>cmdline</code> attributes. You can customize Process
behavior with its optional attributes. Remember, Processes are handled by Thermos.</p>

</tbody></table>
<h4 id="name">name</h4>
<p>The name is any valid UNIX filename string (specifically no
slashes, NULLs or leading periods). Within a Task object, each Process name
must be unique.</p>
<h4 id="cmdline">cmdline</h4>
<p>The command line run by the process. The command line is invoked in a bash
subshell, so can involve fully-blown bash scripts. However, nothing is
supplied for command-line arguments so <code>$*</code> is unspecified.</p>
<h4 id="max_failures">max_failures</h4>
<p>The maximum number of failures (non-zero exit statuses) this process can
have before being marked permanently failed and not retried. If a
process permanently fails, Thermos looks at the failure limit of the task
containing the process (usually 1) to determine if the task has
failed as well.</p>
<p>Setting <code>max_failures</code> to 0 makes the process retry
indefinitely until it achieves a successful (zero) exit status.
It retries at most once every <code>min_duration</code> seconds to prevent
an effective denial of service attack on the coordinating Thermos scheduler.</p>
<h4 id="daemon">daemon</h4>
<p>By default, Thermos processes are non-daemon. If <code>daemon</code> is set to True, a
successful (zero) exit status does not prevent future process runs.
Instead, the process reinvokes after <code>min_duration</code> seconds.
However, the maximum failure limit still applies. A combination of
<code>daemon=True</code> and <code>max_failures=0</code> causes a process to retry
indefinitely regardless of exit status. This should be avoided
for very short-lived processes because of the accumulation of
checkpointed state for each process run. When running in Mesos
specifically, <code>max_failures</code> is capped at 100.</p>
<h4 id="ephemeral">ephemeral</h4>
<p>By default, Thermos processes are non-ephemeral. If <code>ephemeral</code> is set to
True, the process&rsquo; status is not used to determine if its containing task
has completed. For example, consider a task with a non-ephemeral
webserver process and an ephemeral logsaver process
that periodically checkpoints its log files to a centralized data store.
The task is considered finished once the webserver process has
completed, regardless of the logsaver&rsquo;s current status.</p>
<h4 id="min_duration">min_duration</h4>
<p>Processes may succeed or fail multiple times during a single task&rsquo;s
duration. Each of these is called a <em>process run</em>. <code>min_duration</code> is
the minimum number of seconds the scheduler waits before running the
same process.</p>
<h4 id="final">final</h4>
<p>Processes can be grouped into two classes: ordinary processes and
finalizing processes. By default, Thermos processes are ordinary. They
run as long as the task is considered healthy (i.e., no failure
limits have been reached.) But once all regular Thermos processes
finish or the task reaches a certain failure threshold, it
moves into a &ldquo;finalization&rdquo; stage and runs all finalizing
processes. These are typically processes necessary for cleaning up the
task, such as log checkpointers, or perhaps e-mail notifications that
the task completed.</p>
<p>Finalizing processes may not depend upon ordinary processes or
vice-versa, however finalizing processes may depend upon other
finalizing processes and otherwise run as a typical process
schedule.</p>
<h1 id="task-schema">Task Schema</h1>
<p>Tasks fundamentally consist of a <code>name</code> and a list of Process objects stored as the
value of the <code>processes</code> attribute. Processes can be further constrained with
<code>constraints</code>. By default, <code>name</code>&rsquo;s value inherits from the first Process in the
<code>processes</code> list, so for simple <code>Task</code> objects with one Process, <code>name</code>
can be omitted. In Mesos, <code>resources</code> is also required.</p>

<h4 id="name">name</h4>
<p><code>name</code> is a string denoting the name of this task. It defaults to the name of the first Process in
the list of Processes associated with the <code>processes</code> attribute.</p>
<h4 id="processes">processes</h4>
<p><code>processes</code> is an unordered list of <code>Process</code> objects. To constrain the order
in which they run, use <code>constraints</code>.</p>
<h5 id="constraints">constraints</h5>
<p>A list of <code>Constraint</code> objects. Currently it supports only one type,
the <code>order</code> constraint. <code>order</code> is a list of process names
that should run in the order given. For example,</p>
<pre class="highlight plaintext"><code> process = Process(cmdline = "echo hello {{name}}")
task = Task(name = "echoes",
processes = [process(name = "jim"), process(name = "bob")],
constraints = [Constraint(order = ["jim", "bob"]))
</code></pre>
<p>Constraints can be supplied ad-hoc and in duplicate. Not all
Processes need be constrained, however Tasks with cycles are
rejected by the Thermos scheduler.</p>
<p>Use the <code>order</code> function as shorthand to generate <code>Constraint</code> lists.
The following:</p>
<pre class="highlight plaintext"><code> order(process1, process2)
</code></pre>
<p>is shorthand for</p>
<pre class="highlight plaintext"><code> [Constraint(order = [process1.name(), process2.name()])]
</code></pre>
<h4 id="resources">resources</h4>
<p>Takes a <code>Resource</code> object, which specifies the amounts of CPU, memory, and disk space resources
to allocate to the Task.</p>
<h4 id="max_failures">max_failures</h4>
<p><code>max_failures</code> is the number of times processes that are part of this
Task can fail before the entire Task is marked for failure.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<pre class="highlight plaintext"><code> template = Process(max_failures=10)
task = Task(
name = "fail",
processes = [
template(name = "failing", cmdline = "exit 1"),
template(name = "succeeding", cmdline = "exit 0")
],
max_failures=2)
</code></pre>
<p>The <code>failing</code> Process could fail 10 times before being marked as
permanently failed, and the <code>succeeding</code> Process would succeed on the
first run. The task would succeed despite only allowing for two failed
processes. To be more specific, there would be 10 failed process runs
yet 1 failed process.</p>
<h4 id="max_concurrency">max_concurrency</h4>
<p>For Tasks with a number of expensive but otherwise independent
processes, you may want to limit the amount of concurrency
the Thermos scheduler provides rather than artificially constraining
it via <code>order</code> constraints. For example, a test framework may
generate a task with 100 test run processes, but wants to run it on
a machine with only 4 cores. You can limit the amount of parallelism to
4 by setting <code>max_concurrency=4</code> in your task configuration.</p>
<p>For example, the following task spawns 180 Processes (&ldquo;mappers&rdquo;)
to compute individual elements of a 180 degree sine table, all dependent
upon one final Process (&ldquo;reducer&rdquo;) to tabulate the results:</p>
<pre class="highlight plaintext"><code>def make_mapper(id):
return Process(
name = "mapper%03d" % id,
cmdline = "echo 'scale=50;s(%d\*4\*a(1)/180)' | bc -l &gt;
temp.sine_table.%03d" % (id, id))
def make_reducer():
return Process(name = "reducer", cmdline = "cat temp.\* | nl \&gt; sine\_table.txt
&amp;&amp; rm -f temp.\*")
processes = map(make_mapper, range(180))
task = Task(
name = "mapreduce",
processes = processes + [make\_reducer()],
constraints = [Constraint(order = [mapper.name(), 'reducer']) for mapper
in processes],
max_concurrency = 8)
</code></pre>
<h4 id="finalization_wait">finalization_wait</h4>
<p>Tasks have three active stages: <code>ACTIVE</code>, <code>CLEANING</code>, and <code>FINALIZING</code>. The
<code>ACTIVE</code> stage is when ordinary processes run. This stage lasts as
long as Processes are running and the Task is healthy. The moment either
all Processes have finished successfully or the Task has reached a
maximum Process failure limit, it goes into <code>CLEANING</code> stage and send
SIGTERMs to all currently running Processes and their process trees.
Once all Processes have terminated, the Task goes into <code>FINALIZING</code> stage
and invokes the schedule of all Processes with the &ldquo;final&rdquo; attribute set to True.</p>
<p>This whole process from the end of <code>ACTIVE</code> stage to the end of <code>FINALIZING</code>
must happen within <code>finalization_wait</code> seconds. If it does not
finish during that time, all remaining Processes are sent SIGKILLs
(or if they depend upon uncompleted Processes, are
never invoked.)</p>
<p>Client applications with higher priority may force a shorter
finalization wait (e.g. through parameters to <code>thermos kill</code>), so this
is mostly a best-effort signal.</p>
<h3 id="constraint-object">Constraint Object</h3>
<p>Current constraint objects only support a single ordering constraint, <code>order</code>,
which specifies its processes run sequentially in the order given. By
default, all processes run in parallel when bound to a <code>Task</code> without
ordering constraints.</p>

<p>If the <code>announce</code> field in the Job configuration is set, each task will be
registered in the ServerSet <code>/aurora/role/environment/jobname</code> in the
zookeeper ensemble configured by the executor. If no Announcer object is specified,
no announcement will take place. For more information about ServerSets, see the <a href="/documentation/0.9.0/user-guide/">User Guide</a>.</p>

<h3 id="port-aliasing-with-the-announcer-portmap">Port aliasing with the Announcer <code>portmap</code></h3>
<p>The primary endpoint registered in the ServerSet is the one allocated to the port
specified by the <code>primary_port</code> in the <code>Announcer</code> object, by default
the <code>http</code> port. This port can be referenced from anywhere within a configuration
as <code>{{thermos.ports[http]}}</code>.</p>
<p>Without the port map, each named port would be allocated a unique port number.
The <code>portmap</code> allows two different named ports to be aliased together. The default
<code>portmap</code> aliases the <code>aurora</code> port (i.e. <code>{{thermos.ports[aurora]}}</code>) to
the <code>http</code> port. Even though the two ports can be referenced independently,
only one port is allocated by Mesos. Any port referenced in a <code>Process</code> object
but which is not in the portmap will be allocated dynamically by Mesos and announced as well.</p>
<p>It is possible to use the portmap to alias names to static port numbers, e.g.
<code>{&#39;http&#39;: 80, &#39;https&#39;: 443, &#39;aurora&#39;: &#39;http&#39;}</code>. In this case, referencing
<code>{{thermos.ports[aurora]}}</code> would look up <code>{{thermos.ports[http]}}</code> then
find a static port 80. No port would be requested of or allocated by Mesos.</p>
<p>Static ports should be used cautiously as Aurora does nothing to prevent two
tasks with the same static port allocations from being co-scheduled.
External constraints such as slave attributes should be used to enforce such
guarantees should they be needed.</p>

<h4 id="gracefulshutdownendpoint">graceful<em>shutdown</em>endpoint</h4>
<p>If the Job is listening on the port as specified by the HTTPLifecycleConfig
(default: <code>health</code>), a HTTP POST request will be sent over localhost to this
endpoint to request that the task gracefully shut itself down. This is a
courtesy call before the <code>shutdown_endpoint</code> is invoked a fixed amount of
time later.</p>

does not shut down on its own after this, it will be forcefully killed</p>
<h1 id="specifying-scheduling-constraints">Specifying Scheduling Constraints</h1>
<p>Most users will not need to specify constraints explicitly, as the
scheduler automatically inserts reasonable defaults that attempt to
ensure reliability without impacting schedulability. For example, the
scheduler inserts a <code>host: limit:1</code> constraint, ensuring
that your shards run on different physical machines. Please do not
set this field unless you are sure of what you are doing.</p>
<p>In the <code>Job</code> object there is a map <code>constraints</code> from String to String
allowing the user to tailor the schedulability of tasks within the job.</p>
<p>Each slave in the cluster is assigned a set of string-valued
key/value pairs called attributes. For example, consider the host
<code>cluster1-aaa-03-sr2</code> and its following attributes (given in key:value
format): <code>host:cluster1-aaa-03-sr2</code> and <code>rack:aaa</code>.</p>
<p>The constraint map&rsquo;s key value is the attribute name in which we
constrain Tasks within our Job. The value is how we constrain them.
There are two types of constraints: <em>limit constraints</em> and <em>value
constraints</em>.</p>
<table><thead>
<tr>
<th>constraint</th>
<th>description</th>
</tr>
</thead><tbody>
<tr>
<td>Limit</td>
<td>A string that specifies a limit for a constraint. Starts with <code>&#39;limit:</code> followed by an Integer and closing single quote, such as <code>&#39;limit:1&#39;</code>.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Value</td>
<td>A string that specifies a value for a constraint. To include a list of values, separate the values using commas. To negate the values of a constraint, start with a <code>!</code> <code>.</code></td>
</tr>
</tbody></table>
<p>You can also control machine diversity using constraints. The below
constraint ensures that no more than two instances of your job may run
on a single host. Think of this as a &ldquo;group by&rdquo; limit.</p>
<pre class="highlight plaintext"><code>constraints = {
'host': 'limit:2',
}
</code></pre>
<p>Likewise, you can use constraints to control rack diversity, e.g. at
most one task per rack:</p>
<pre class="highlight plaintext"><code>constraints = {
'rack': 'limit:1',
}
</code></pre>
<p>Use these constraints sparingly as they can dramatically reduce Tasks&rsquo; schedulability.</p>
<h1 id="template-namespaces">Template Namespaces</h1>
<p>Currently, a few Pystachio namespaces have special semantics. Using them
in your configuration allow you to tailor application behavior
through environment introspection or interact in special ways with the
Aurora client or Aurora-provided services.</p>
<h3 id="mesos-namespace">mesos Namespace</h3>
<p>The <code>mesos</code> namespace contains the <code>instance</code> variable that can be used
to distinguish between Task replicas.</p>

<h3 id="thermos-namespace">thermos Namespace</h3>
<p>The <code>thermos</code> namespace contains variables that work directly on the
Thermos platform in addition to Aurora. This namespace is fully
compatible with Tasks invoked via the <code>thermos</code> CLI.</p>
<table><thead>

</tbody></table>
<p>The <code>thermos.ports</code> namespace is automatically populated by Aurora when
invoking tasks on Mesos. When running the <code>thermos</code> command directly,
these ports must be explicitly mapped with the <code>-P</code> option.</p>
<p>For example, if &rsquo;{{<code>thermos.ports[http]</code>}}&rsquo; is specified in a <code>Process</code>
configuration, it is automatically extracted and auto-populated by
Aurora, but must be specified with, for example, <code>thermos -P http:12345</code>
to map <code>http</code> to port 12345 when running via the CLI.</p>
