RunJobFlow (new) Link ¶

RunJobFlow creates and starts running a new job flow. The job flow will run the steps specified. Once the job flow completes, the cluster is stopped and the HDFS partition is lost. To prevent loss of data, configure the last step of the job flow to store results in Amazon S3. If the JobFlowInstancesConfig KeepJobFlowAliveWhenNoSteps parameter is set to TRUE, the job flow will transition to the WAITING state rather than shutting down once the steps have completed.

For additional protection, you can set the JobFlowInstancesConfig TerminationProtected parameter to TRUE to lock the job flow and prevent it from being terminated by API call, user intervention, or in the event of a job flow error.

A maximum of 256 steps are allowed in each job flow.

If your job flow is long-running (such as a Hive data warehouse) or complex, you may require more than 256 steps to process your data. You can bypass the 256-step limitation in various ways, including using the SSH shell to connect to the master node and submitting queries directly to the software running on the master node, such as Hive and Hadoop. For more information on how to do this, go to Add More than 256 Steps to a Job Flow in the Amazon Elastic MapReduce Developer's Guide.

For long running job flows, we recommend that you periodically store your results.

TerminateJobFlows (new) Link ¶

TerminateJobFlows shuts a list of job flows down. When a job flow is shut down, any step not yet completed is canceled and the EC2 instances on which the job flow is running are stopped. Any log files not already saved are uploaded to Amazon S3 if a LogUri was specified when the job flow was created.

The maximum number of JobFlows allowed is 10. The call to TerminateJobFlows is asynchronous. Depending on the configuration of the job flow, it may take up to 5-20 minutes for the job flow to completely terminate and release allocated resources, such as Amazon EC2 instances.

Request Syntax

    JobFlowIds=[
        'string',
    ]
)
type JobFlowIds:

list

param JobFlowIds:

[REQUIRED]

A list of job flows to be shutdown.

  • (string) --

returns:

None

AddJobFlowSteps (new) Link ¶

AddJobFlowSteps adds new steps to a running job flow. A maximum of 256 steps are allowed in each job flow.

If your job flow is long-running (such as a Hive data warehouse) or complex, you may require more than 256 steps to process your data. You can bypass the 256-step limitation in various ways, including using the SSH shell to connect to the master node and submitting queries directly to the software running on the master node, such as Hive and Hadoop. For more information on how to do this, go to Add More than 256 Steps to a Job Flow in the Amazon Elastic MapReduce Developer's Guide.

A step specifies the location of a JAR file stored either on the master node of the job flow or in Amazon S3. Each step is performed by the main function of the main class of the JAR file. The main class can be specified either in the manifest of the JAR or by using the MainFunction parameter of the step.

Elastic MapReduce executes each step in the order listed. For a step to be considered complete, the main function must exit with a zero exit code and all Hadoop jobs started while the step was running must have completed and run successfully.

You can only add steps to a job flow that is in one of the following states: STARTING, BOOTSTRAPPING, RUNNING, or WAITING.

Request Syntax

        Indicates whether Amazon EMR will lock the cluster to prevent the EC2 instances from being terminated by an API call or user intervention, or in the event of a cluster error.

      • VisibleToAllUsers (boolean) --

        Indicates whether the job flow is visible to all IAM users of the AWS account associated with the job flow. If this value is set to true, all IAM users of that AWS account can view and manage the job flow if they have the proper policy permissions set.

This structure contains a list of strings that indicates the software to use with the cluster and accepts a user argument list. Amazon EMR accepts and forwards the argument list to the corresponding installation script as bootstrap action argument. For more information, see Launch a Job Flow on the MapR Distribution for Hadoop. Currently supported values are:

          • "mapr-m3" - launch the job flow using MapR M3 Edition.

          • "mapr-m5" - launch the job flow using MapR M5 Edition.

          • "mapr" with the user arguments specifying "--edition,m3" or "--edition,m5" - launch the job flow using MapR M3 or M5 Edition, respectively.

      • ServiceRole (string) --

        The IAM role that will be assumed by the Amazon EMR service to access AWS resources on your behalf.

      • NormalizedInstanceHours (integer) --

        An approximation of the cost of the job flow, represented in m1.small/hours. This value is incremented one time for every hour an m1.small instance runs. Larger instances are weighted more, so an EC2 instance that is roughly four times more expensive would result in the normalized instance hours being incremented by four. This result is only an approximation and does not reflect the actual billing rate.

      • MasterPublicDnsName (string) --

        The public DNS name of the master Ec2 instance.

SetTerminationProtection (new) Link ¶

SetTerminationProtection locks a job flow so the Amazon EC2 instances in the cluster cannot be terminated by user intervention, an API call, or in the event of a job-flow error. The cluster still terminates upon successful completion of the job flow. Calling SetTerminationProtection on a job flow is analogous to calling the Amazon EC2 DisableAPITermination API on all of the EC2 instances in a cluster.

SetTerminationProtection is used to prevent accidental termination of a job flow and to ensure that in the event of an error, the instances will persist so you can recover any data stored in their ephemeral instance storage.

To terminate a job flow that has been locked by setting SetTerminationProtection to true, you must first unlock the job flow by a subsequent call to SetTerminationProtection in which you set the value to false.

For more information, go to Protecting a Job Flow from Termination in the Amazon Elastic MapReduce Developer's Guide.

    JobFlowIds=[

ListClusters (new) Link ¶

Provides the status of all clusters visible to this AWS account. Allows you to filter the list of clusters based on certain criteria; for example, filtering by cluster creation date and time or by status. This call returns a maximum of 50 clusters per call, but returns a marker to track the paging of the cluster list across multiple ListClusters calls.

              The descriptive message for the state change reason.

          • Timeline (dict) --

            A timeline that represents the status of a cluster over the lifetime of the cluster.

            • CreationDateTime (datetime) --

        • NormalizedInstanceHours (integer) --

          An approximation of the cost of the job flow, represented in m1.small/hours. This value is incremented one time for every hour an m1.small instance runs. Larger instances are weighted more, so an EC2 instance that is roughly four times more expensive would result in the normalized instance hours being incremented by four. This result is only an approximation and does not reflect the actual billing rate.

    • Marker (string) --

      The pagination token that indicates the next set of results to retrieve.
