Nicholas Chammas updated SPARK-5629: ------------------------------------ Description: You can launch multiple clusters using spark-ec2. At some point, you might just want to get some information about an existing cluster. Use cases include: * Wanting to check something about your cluster in the EC2 web console. * Wanting to feed information about your cluster to another tool (e.g. as described in [SPARK-5627]). For example: So, in addition to the [existing actions|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/9b746f380869b54d673e3758ca5e4475f76c864a/ec2/spark_ec2.py#L115]: * {{launch}} * {{destroy}} * {{login}} * {{stop}} * {{start}} * {{get-master}} * {{reboot-slaves}} We add a new action, {{describe}}, which describes an existing cluster if given a cluster name, and all clusters if not.
