Given a Hadoop job configured with LZO compression, what will happen if the LZO native libraries are missing on the cluster?
AJob will run but without compression
BJob will fail with a runtime error
CJob will automatically switch to Gzip compression
DJob will run with Snappy compression instead
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand LZO dependency

    LZO requires native libraries installed on all nodes to work properly.
  2. Step 2: Consequence of missing native libraries

    If native libraries are missing, Hadoop cannot use LZO codec and the job fails at runtime.
  3. Final Answer:

    Job will fail with a runtime error -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    LZO missing libs = runtime failure [OK]
Quick Trick: LZO needs native libs; missing causes failure [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming fallback to other codec
  • Thinking job runs without compression
  • Confusing with Snappy behavior
