Managing the Spark History Server

The Spark History Server displays information about the history of completed Spark applications. For further information, see Monitoring Spark Applications.

For instructions for configuring the Spark History Server to use Kerberos, see Spark Authentication.

  1. Go to the Spark service.
  2. Click the Instances tab.
  3. Click the Add Role Instances button.
  4. Select a host in the column under History Server, and then click OK.
  5. Click Continue.
  6. Check the checkbox next to the History Server role.
  7. Select Actions for Selected > Start and click Start.
  8. Click Close when the action completes.
