File Not Found Error in Dask program run on cluste

问题:

I have 4 machines, M1, M2, M3, and M4. The scheduler, client, worker runs on M1. I've put a csv file in M1. Rest of the machines are workers.

When I run the program with read_csv file in dask. It gives me Error, file not found

回答1:

When one of your workers tries to load the CSV, it will not be able to find it, because it is not present on that local disc. This should not be a surprise. You can get around this in a number of ways:

• copy the file to every worker; this is obviously wasteful in terms of disc space, but the easiest to achieve
• place the file on a networked filesystem (NFS mount, gluster, HDFS, etc.)
• place the file on an external storage system such as amazon S3 and refer to that location
• load the data in your local process and distribute it with scatter; in this case presumably the data was small enough to fit in memory and probably dask would not be doing much for you.
