How do I start multiple instances of spark?

Spark Spark Support

I was able to do this before, where I would be able to start multiple instances of spark for testing purposes on the same machine. Now I’‘m unable to do this. Is there a way to change this behavior in spark? I’'m running spark 2.0.5

Thanks for any advice.

Alex.

Hi Alex,

copy Spark.exe to Spark2.exe and then you can launch both, this does work at least on Windows.

Thanks LG, that was exactly what I needed.
