General Information about Custom Properties
INFO
A custom property consists of a name (key) and a value pair, separated by a "=".
Example: 'das.job.health.check=true'
List of DAS Properties
| Name | Default Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| das.aggregation.map-cache-size | ByteUnit.MB.toBytes(16) | Size of Cache for Map-Side Aggregation in bytes. Less than or equal to 0 means disable Map-Side Aggregation. |
das.big-decimal.precision | 32 | During data ingestion, data field types of big integer and big decimal have the maximum precision rounded to this value. |
| das.debug.job-metadata | enabled | Possible values are these from the enum JobMetaDataMode (ENABLED, DISABLED, DEFLATED) |
| das.debug.job.report-progress-interval | -1 | Interval in milliseconds a reporting thread will report progress to hadoop's tasktracker. If set to <= 0 no thread will be installed and progress is reported by mappers, reducers, readers, etc... as usual. |

| das.jobconf .cache-properties | Properties like " das.plugin-registry.conf,map-runnable,reducer,mapred.input.dir" | Properties are evacuated to the distributed cache. Evacuation means, before submitting the job, the properties are stripped out of the job-conf and written into one file in the distributed cache. On a task side, before any serious work happens, the properties are read from the distributed cache and added to the job-conf. Disable the whole mechanism by setting ' das.jobconf .cache-properties' to ''. |

List of Hadoop Properties
| Name | Default Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| fs.AbstractFileSystem.hdfs.impl | org.apache.hadoop.fs.Hdfs | Property is required for successfully starting yarn application as these properties are stripped out while setting up the overlay by DAS framework. |

Adding a Custom Property
INFO
Custom properties can be added to apply system-wide or to apply only for specific jobs.
Adding Custom Properties Applied to all Jobs
To add a system-wide custom property:
- Click on the "Admin" tab and select the menu tab "Hadoop Cluster". The overview page for the Hadoop Cluster configuration opens.
- Click on "Enter". The Hadoop Cluster configuration page opens.
- Enter the custom properties in the field "Custom Properties" and confirm with "Enter". The configuration is saved.
Adding Custom Properties Applied to Specific a Workbook Job
To add a workbook job specific custom property:
- Double-click the required workbook from the File Browser. The workbook opens.
- Select "File" and select "Configure". The workbook configuration page opens.
- Enter the required custom properties in the field "Custom Properties" and confirm with "Save". The workbook job configuration is saved.
Editing Custom Properties for Compressed Data
When importing compressed data, the requirements are different for settings custom properties than other custom properties.
To decompress data you're importing, all compression codec details need to be put within the conf/das-common.properties files.
This includes, for LZO compression:
io.compression.codecsio.compression.codec.lzo.classmapred.map.output.compression.codec
As a best practice, put all compression details in the properties files, and adjust their tuning parameters, if necessary, in the interface.
