Update spark_ec2.py #4

Closed jumping closed 11 years ago

jumping commented 11 years ago

according to the description, changed the default type of instances to m2.xlarge, but the AWS EC2 instances(instance type from t1.micro to cc2.8xlarge) could boot up from 64bit AMI.

Hi @jumping - The exercises are designed to work with m1.xlarge -- Rather than changing the default value, could you point me to where in the description is it specified as m2.xlarge ? http://ampcamp.berkeley.edu/3/exercises/launching-a-bdas-cluster-on-ec2.html says m1.xlarge as far as I can see

Thanks for catching that. The image is outdated and needs to be fixed rather than the spark_ec2.py script. Could you close this pull request and open a pull request to replace the screenshot at amplab/training repo ? (The file is at https://github.com/amplab/training/blob/master/ampcamp/img/aws-runninginstances.png).

If you don't have a screenshot handy feel free to open an new issue at https://github.com/amplab/training/issues and one of us will fix it soon.
