EDIT: Update. This happens regardless of the number of users. Even with one user, it still happens.
The databricks notebook is repeatedly detaching while in use.
Our data scientist comes from a Jupyter background, and since Koalas has some gaps, he's continued to use Pandas with a few workarounds, which has meant much heavier load on the driver, but the notebook seems functional.
I've looked for people experiencing similar issues, but have not seen this.
This is my spark config:
spark.driver.extraJavaOptions -XX:+UseG1GC
spark.driver.cores 8
spark.driver.memory 16g
spark.executor.extraJavaOptions -XX:+UseG1GC
The two errors the data scientist sees when it detaches:
Notebook detached
Notebook detached
Exception when creating execution context:
java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException: Exchange timed out after 15 seconds.
Spark context stopped
The spark context has been stopped or the cluster has been terminated.
Please restart the cluster or attach this notebook to a different cluster.
The cluster seems fine, in the sense that I can connect another notebook and run commands.
What I expect to happen is that at no point will the notebook be randomly detached and lose all work.
When I look through the driver logs, these are the only messages that stand out:
