Daniel Darabos commented on SPARK-2291: --------------------------------------- I don't know if something has changed on Amazon's end or if I'm missing something. (I'm pretty clueless.) But we still see missing SSDs. This change fixed it for us: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2081/files. The block device mapping entries are necessary according to http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/InstanceStorage.html#InstanceStore_UsageScenarios. I guess you tested PR #1156. Actually it seemed to have worked for us too for a while. But now some of the machines come up without SSDs. (/dev/sdb and /dev/sdc do not exist.) So I read the docs and tried adding the block device mappings. Seems to work. With PR #2081 all machines have the SSDs. Hope this makes sense. > Update EC2 scripts to use instance storage on m3 instance types > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-2291 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2291 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: EC2 > Affects Versions: 0.9.0, 0.9.1, 1.0.0 > Reporter: Alessandro Andrioni > > [On January > 21|https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2014/01/21/announcing-new-amazon-ec2-m3-instance-sizes-and-lower-prices-for-amazon-s3-and-amazon-ebs/], > Amazon added SSD-backed instance storages for m3 instances, and also added > two new types: m3.medium and m3.large. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
