Corrupt PARQUET dump when dumping over 2^31 rows

Vertica v10.1.1-7 and v11.0.0-0 (these are the version I have tried) have a bug when exporting a parquet with more than 2^31/2^32 rows since it generates a num_rows that is invalid.

When I try to load the parquet file, Vertica reports that 0 rows were loaded.
If I inspect the parquet with parquet-tools, I get a negative number of rows, see https://github.com/ktrueda/parquet-tools/issues/18

Output for a v10.1.1-7 dump:

~/.local/bin/parquet-tools inspect ./dump-1.parquet 

############ file meta data ############
created_by: parquet-cpp version 1.0.0-v10.1.1 (build Vertica Analytic Database)
num_columns: 3
num_rows: -1803805480
num_row_groups: 1
format_version: 1.0
serialized_size: 329

Output for a v11.0.0-0 dump:

~/.local/bin/parquet-tools inspect ./dump-2parquet 

############ file meta data ############

Seems like you're using a really old parquet-cpp, maybe bump to a newer version? https://github.com/apache/parquet-cpp/releases

    @nicolaerosia : Thank you for the update. Did you try to run export to parquet to HDFS or local? Could you please share your export to parquet SQL statement?

  • nicolaerosianicolaerosia Vertica Customer

    Hello, sorry for the delay.
    I ran the export to local, e.g. EXPORT TO PARQUET (directory='/mnt/aaa', compression='ZSTD') AS SELECT * FROM mytable;
    Any feedback?

  • SruthiASruthiA Administrator

    @nicolaerosia : I tried to run the test. It created 3 parquet files for me. Vertica provides an inbuilt function called GET_METADATA and all the 3 files are showing positive row counts. I was able copy data back to new table. However copied row count is not same as the source table. I will check on that part.

    If I run the test on a single node cluster, then I can see the negative row count in the parquet file. Are you running it on a single node cluster?

    @nicolaerosia : I have raised a bug with engineering. VER-78969 is the bug number. If you need more information regarding it, please raise a support case so that I can provide more details

  • nicolaerosianicolaerosia Vertica Customer

    Yes, I'm running a single node vertica, thank you.

  • nicolaerosianicolaerosia Vertica Customer

    @SruthiA I see VER-78969 is mentioned as fixed in 11.0.1 - I will give it a try!

  • SruthiASruthiA Administrator

    @nicolaerosia : Thank you for reporting the bug. Yes. it has been fixed in 11.0.1 and is being backported to 10.1.1. I thought of updating here once 10.1.1 hotfix is released since you mentioned 10.1.1 and 11.0 in the description of the issue.
