Parallel copy a file or directory from Google Cloud Storage into the HDFS file system used by Spark
Category Other
Overview
Parallel copy a file or directory from Google Cloud Storage into the HDFS file system used by SparkThis tool uses a Spark cluster to do a parallel copy of either a single file or a directory from Google Cloud Storage (GCS) into the HDFS file system used by Spark to support Resilient Distributed Datasets (RDDs). Files are divided into chunks of size equal to the HDFS block size (with the exception of the final chunk) and each Spark task is responsible for copying one chunk. To copy all of the files in a GCS directory, provide the GCS directory path, including the trailing slash. Directory copies are non-recursive so subdirectories will be skipped. Within directories each file is divided into chunks independently (so this will be inefficient if you have lots of files smaller than the block size). After all chunks are copied, the HDFS concat method is used to stitch together chunks into single files without re-copying them.
This functionality is used by the structural variation workflow to copy reference data when a Spark cluster is created, and may also be used to copy sample data to a Spark cluster.
Inputs
- An gcs input file or directory.
Output
- A copy of the input as HDFS output.
Usage example
gatk ParallelCopyGCSDirectoryIntoHDFSSpark \ --input-gcs-path gs://bucket_name/input_reads.bam \ --output-hdfs-directory hdfs://cluster-name-m:8020/directory/input_reads.bam \ -- \ --spark-runner GCS \ --cluster my-dataproc-cluster
Additional Information
Read filters
This Read Filter is automatically applied to the data by the Engine before processing by ParallelCopyGCSDirectoryIntoHDFSSpark.

Disable all tool default read filters (WARNING: many tools will not function correctly without their default read filters on)
boolean false
--exclude-intervals / -XL
One or more genomic intervals to exclude from processing
Use this argument to exclude certain parts of the genome from the analysis (like -L, but the opposite).
This argument can be specified multiple times. You can use samtools-style intervals either explicitly on the
command line (e.g. -XL 1 or -XL 1:100-200) or by loading in a file containing a list of intervals
(e.g. -XL myFile.intervals).
List[String] []
--gatk-config-file
A configuration file to use with the GATK.

--gcs-max-retries / -gcs-retries
If the GCS bucket channel errors out, how many times it will attempt to re-initiate the connection
int 20 [ [ -∞ ∞ ] ]
--gcs-project-for-requester-pays
Project to bill when accessing "requester pays" buckets. If unset, these buckets cannot be accessed. User must have storage.buckets.get permission on the bucket being accessed.
String ""
--help / -h

boolean false
--input / -I

List[GATKPath] []
--input-file-glob
optional wildcard glob to subset files in the input directory to copy
String *
--input-gcs-path
input GCS file path (add trailing slash when specifying a directory)
R String null
--interval-exclusion-padding / -ixp
Amount of padding (in bp) to add to each interval you are excluding.
Use this to add padding to the intervals specified using -XL. For example, '-XL 1:100' with a
padding value of 20 would turn into '-XL 1:80-120'. This is typically used to add padding around targets when
analyzing exomes.
int 0 [ [ -∞ ∞ ] ]
--interval-merging-rule / -imr
Interval merging rule for abutting intervals
By default, the program merges abutting intervals (i.e. intervals that are directly side-by-side but do not
actually overlap) into a single continuous interval. However you can change this behavior if you want them to be
treated as separate intervals instead.
The --interval-merging-rule argument is an enumerated type (IntervalMergingRule), which can have one of the following values:
- ALL
- OVERLAPPING_ONLY
IntervalMergingRule ALL
--interval-padding / -ip
Amount of padding (in bp) to add to each interval you are including.
Use this to add padding to the intervals specified using -L. For example, '-L 1:100' with a
padding value of 20 would turn into '-L 1:80-120'. This is typically used to add padding around targets when
analyzing exomes.
int 0 [ [ -∞ ∞ ] ]
--interval-set-rule / -isr
Set merging approach to use for combining interval inputs
By default, the program will take the UNION of all intervals specified using -L and/or -XL. However, you can
change this setting for -L, for example if you want to take the INTERSECTION of the sets instead. E.g. to
perform the analysis only on chromosome 1 exomes, you could specify -L exomes.intervals -L 1 --interval-set-rule
INTERSECTION. However, it is not possible to modify the merging approach for intervals passed using -XL (they will
always be merged using UNION).
Note that if you specify both -L and -XL, the -XL interval set will be subtracted from the -L interval set.
The --interval-set-rule argument is an enumerated type (IntervalSetRule), which can have one of the following values:
- UNION
- Take the union of all intervals
- INTERSECTION
- Take the intersection of intervals (the subset that overlaps all intervals specified)
IntervalSetRule UNION
--intervals / -L
One or more genomic intervals over which to operate
List[String] []
--num-reducers
For tools that shuffle data or write an output, sets the number of reducers. Defaults to 0, which gives one partition per 10MB of input.
int 0 [ [ -∞ ∞ ] ]
--output-hdfs-directory
output directory on HDFS to into which to transfer the data (will be created by the tool)
R String null
--output-shard-tmp-dir

Whether to suppress job-summary info on System.err.
Boolean false
--read-filter / -RF

List[String] []
--read-index / -read-index

List[GATKPath] []
--read-validation-stringency / -VS
Validation stringency for all SAM/BAM/CRAM/SRA files read by this program. The default stringency value SILENT can improve performance when processing a BAM file in which variable-length data (read, qualities, tags) do not otherwise need to be decoded.
The --read-validation-stringency argument is an enumerated type (ValidationStringency), which can have one of the following values:
- STRICT
- LENIENT
- SILENT
ValidationStringency SILENT
--reference / -R
Reference sequence
GATKPath null
--sharded-output
For tools that write an output, write the output in multiple pieces (shards)
