Overview

Namejob_flows
TypeResource
Idaws.emr.job_flows

Fields

The following fields are returned by SELECT queries:

NameDatatypeDescription
job_flowsarrayA list of job flows matching the parameters supplied.

Methods

The following methods are available for this resource:

NameAccessible byRequired ParamsOptional ParamsDescription
describe_job_flowsselectregionThis API is no longer supported and will eventually be removed. We recommend you use ListClusters, DescribeCluster, ListSteps, ListInstanceGroups and ListBootstrapActions instead. DescribeJobFlows returns a list of job flows that match all of the supplied parameters. The parameters can include a list of job flow IDs, job flow states, and restrictions on job flow creation date and time. Regardless of supplied parameters, only job flows created within the last two months are returned. If no parameters are supplied, then job flows matching either of the following criteria are returned: Job flows created and completed in the last two weeks Job flows created within the last two months that are in one of the following states: RUNNING, WAITING, SHUTTING_DOWN, STARTING Amazon EMR can return a maximum of 512 job flow descriptions.
set_termination_protectionupdateregion, JobFlowIds, TerminationProtectedSetTerminationProtection locks a cluster (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 cluster is similar to calling the Amazon EC2 DisableAPITermination API on all Amazon EC2 instances in a cluster. SetTerminationProtection is used to prevent accidental termination of a cluster and to ensure that in the event of an error, the instances persist so that you can recover any data stored in their ephemeral instance storage. To terminate a cluster 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, see Managing Cluster Termination in the Amazon EMR Management Guide.
set_unhealthy_node_replacementupdateregion, JobFlowIds, UnhealthyNodeReplacementSpecify whether to enable unhealthy node replacement, which lets Amazon EMR gracefully replace core nodes on a cluster if any nodes become unhealthy. For example, a node becomes unhealthy if disk usage is above 90%. If unhealthy node replacement is on and TerminationProtected are off, Amazon EMR immediately terminates the unhealthy core nodes. To use unhealthy node replacement and retain unhealthy core nodes, use to turn on termination protection. In such cases, Amazon EMR adds the unhealthy nodes to a denylist, reducing job interruptions and failures. If unhealthy node replacement is on, Amazon EMR notifies YARN and other applications on the cluster to stop scheduling tasks with these nodes, moves the data, and then terminates the nodes. For more information, see graceful node replacement in the Amazon EMR Management Guide.
set_visible_to_all_usersupdateregion, JobFlowIds, VisibleToAllUsersThe SetVisibleToAllUsers parameter is no longer supported. Your cluster may be visible to all users in your account. To restrict cluster access using an IAM policy, see Identity and Access Management for Amazon EMR. Sets the Cluster$VisibleToAllUsers value for an Amazon EMR cluster. When true, IAM principals in the Amazon Web Services account can perform Amazon EMR cluster actions that their IAM policies allow. When false, only the IAM principal that created the cluster and the Amazon Web Services account root user can perform Amazon EMR actions on the cluster, regardless of IAM permissions policies attached to other IAM principals. This action works on running clusters. When you create a cluster, use the RunJobFlowInput$VisibleToAllUsers parameter. For more information, see Understanding the Amazon EMR Cluster VisibleToAllUsers Setting in the Amazon EMR Management Guide.
terminate_job_flowsdeleteregionTerminateJobFlows shuts a list of clusters (job flows) down. When a job flow is shut down, any step not yet completed is canceled and the Amazon EC2 instances on which the cluster is running are stopped. Any log files not already saved are uploaded to Amazon S3 if a LogUri was specified when the cluster was created. The maximum number of clusters allowed is 10. The call to TerminateJobFlows is asynchronous. Depending on the configuration of the cluster, it may take up to 1-5 minutes for the cluster to completely terminate and release allocated resources, such as Amazon EC2 instances.
