SAP Hana Vora: Unable to create vora table - sap

Question

I am trying to do SAP HANA Vora installation on HDP 2.3 using Ambari 2.2 on a 5 node cluster having 1 management node, 1 master node, 2 worker nodes and 1 jump box node.
After installing all the Vora services, I was trying to validate my installation.
As per the SAP HANA Vora document, I need to create a vora table (table using com.sap.spark.vora) from spark-sql but I am getting Exception. Stack trace below.

Kindly help me with this issue...

Answer 1

The error message No cluster leader indicates that the Vora Discovery Service is not running correctly. You need min 3 Discovery Servers on 3 different nodes and Discover Clients on all other nodes (never run Client and Server on the same node; they are mutually exclusive as they use the same port 8500). The Discovery Servers will elect a leader amongst themselves - according to the message this step did not happen. Likely cause is that < 3 servers are running correctly.
To solve the issue, run at least 3 Discovery Servers. Given that you have 1 master and 2 workers you probably want to run a Discovery server on each of the 3 nodes (no Discovery Clients on nodes that run Discovery Servers). The jump box should get a Discovery Clinet. For troubleshooting please see the Vora Installation and Administration Guide and the Troubleshooting Blog (section 'How to?' -> How to check the status of the Vora discovery service?)
