Research direction

Start by tracing how sparkImage.pullPolicy is applied to the submit pod, then compare the configuration passed to the driver and executor pods. Reproduce the issue with sparkImage.pullPolicy set to Always and verify that the driver and executor pod settings match the requested sparkImage configuration.

Description

type/bug
Affected Stackable version

26.7

Affected Apache Spark-on-Kubernetes version

4.x

Current and expected behavior

When setting sparkImage.pullPolicy to Always, this is configured for the submit pod, but at least the driver keeps the default setting. Expected would be that we use the pullPolicy (and other sparkImage settings) on driver and executor pods.

Workaround
spec:

  sparkConf:

    spark.kubernetes.container.image.pullPolicy: "Always"
