Troubleshoot NoHostAvailableException and NoNodeAvailableException

NoHostAvailableException is a top-level wrapper exception with many possible causes and inner exceptions, many of which can be client-related. This exception tends to occur if there are some issues with the cluster or connection settings, or if one or more Cassandra nodes are unavailable.

This article explores possible reasons for this exception, and it discusses specific details about the client driver that's being used.

Driver settings

One of the most common causes of NoHostAvailableException is the default driver settings. We recommend that you use the settings listed at the end of this article. Here is some explanatory information:

  • The default value of the connections per host is 1, which we don't recommend for Azure Cosmos DB. We do recommend a minimum value of 10. Although more aggregated Request Units (RU) are provided, increase the connection count. The general guideline is 10 connections per 200,000 RU.
  • Use the Azure Cosmos DB retry policy to handle intermittent throttling responses. For more information, see the Azure Cosmos DB extension libraries:
  • For multi-region accounts, use the Azure Cosmos DB load-balancing policy in the extension.
  • The read request timeout should be set at greater than 1 minute. We recommend 90 seconds.

Exception messages

If the exception persists after you've made the recommended changes, review the exception messages in the next three sections. If your error log contains any of these exception messages, follow the recommendation for that exception.

BusyPoolException

This client-side error indicates that the maximum number of request connections for a host has been reached. If you're unable to remove the request from the queue, you might see this error. If the connection per host has been set to minimum of 10, the exception could be caused by high server-side latency.

Java driver v3 exception:
All host(s) tried for query failed (tried: :10350 (com.datastax.driver.core.exceptions.BusyPoolException: [:10350] Pool is busy (no available connection and the queue has reached its max size 256)))
All host(s) tried for query failed (tried: :10350 (com.datastax.driver.core.exceptions.BusyPoolException: [:10350] Pool is busy (no available connection and timed out after 5000 MILLISECONDS)))
C# driver 3:
All hosts tried for query failed (tried :10350: BusyPoolException 'All connections to host :10350 are busy, 2048 requests are in-flight on each 10 connection(s)')

Recommendation

Instead of tuning max requests per connection, make sure that connections per host is set to a minimum of 10. See the code sample section.

TooManyRequest(429)

OverloadException is thrown when the request rate is too great, which might happen when insufficient throughput is provisioned for the table and the RU budget is exceeded. For more information, see large request and server-side retry.

Recommendation

Apply one of the following options:

  • If throttling is persistent, increase the provisioned RU.
  • If throttling is intermittent, use the Azure Cosmos DB retry policy.
  • If the extension library can't be referenced, enable server-side retry.

All hosts tried for query failed

When the client is set to connect to a region other than the primary contact point region, during the initial few seconds at startup, you'll get one of the following exception messages:

  • For Java driver 3: Exception in thread "main" com.datastax.driver.core.exceptions.NoHostAvailableException: All host(s) tried for query failed (no host was tried)at cassandra.driver.core@3.10.2/com.datastax.driver.core.exceptions.NoHostAvailableException.copy(NoHostAvailableException.java:83)

  • For Java driver 4: No node was available to execute the query

  • For C# driver 3: System.ArgumentException: Datacenter West US does not match any of the nodes, available datacenters: West US 2

Recommendation

Use CosmosLoadBalancingPolicy in Java driver 3 and Java driver 4. This policy falls back to the contact point of the primary write region where the specified local data is unavailable.

Note

If the preceding recommendations don't help resolve your issue, contact Azure Cosmos DB support. Be sure to provide the following details: exception message, exception stacktrace, datastax driver log, universal time of failure, consistent or intermittent failures, failing keyspace and table, request type that failed, and SDK version.
