Part 2: AWS pricing

Extension to the earlier post on AWS pricing. Here is a small script that you can find out the prices of each On Demand instances. Please checkout the requirements.txt for some pre-installed libraries.

Here is how it looks like.

Asia Pacific (Singapore): server2 t2.medium 2017-10-11 06:16:19
 * Price OnDemand t2.medium effective from 2017-11-09T22:41:06Z: 0.0584000000 USD/hour
 * Total accumulated price in USD: 45.44
 * Monthly charged price in USD: 16.37

Part 1: AWS Pricing

Hi

AWS pricing seem to be difficult to find out, because aws yields out a list of json files for user to parse on prices(https://pricing.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/offers/v1.0/aws/index.json). This index.json will eventually guide you to download another set of index.json files as per service Code, for example: AmazonEC2. Here is a link describing how you could achieve the purpose.

Recently, boto3 is allowing the developers to query is the json pricing objects online without downloading the json files. One of the most important blog that published recently from Amazon about the same objective. From the set of API libraries that you could call from boto3.client('pricing'). You can basically do full range of filtering based on the EC2 Attributes and values in order to nail down that is the instance price.

For example, I have an Linux instance located at US East (N. Virginia), the instance type is t2.nano
. So, the filter function call will be as below

Filters = [
         {'Type' :'TERM_MATCH', 'Field':'operatingSystem', 'Value':'Linux'},
         {'Type' :'TERM_MATCH', 'Field':'instanceType', 'Value':'t2.nano'},
         {'Type' :'TERM_MATCH', 'Field':'location', 'Value':'US East (N. Virginia)'}
     ],

However, the result of the json object is a bit overwhelming for us to parse the detail of the price per hours. With the helps of python library e.g. objectpath, it could help us to drill down the price easily. The small python code will be look like below.

import boto3
import json
import objectpath


pricing = boto3.client('pricing')
print("Selected EC2 Products")
print("=====================")
response = pricing.get_products(
     ServiceCode='AmazonEC2',
     Filters = [
         {'Type' :'TERM_MATCH', 'Field':'operatingSystem', 'Value':'Linux'},
         {'Type' :'TERM_MATCH', 'Field':'instanceType', 'Value':'t2.nano'},
         {'Type' :'TERM_MATCH', 'Field':'location', 'Value':'US East (N. Virginia)'}
     ],
     MaxResults=100
)
[price_info_dump] = response['PriceList']
price_tree = objectpath.Tree(json.loads(price_info_dump))
publish_date = price_tree.execute("$.publicationDate")
[sku] = price_tree.execute("$.terms.OnDemand")
[rateCode] = price_tree.execute("$.terms.OnDemand.'{}'.priceDimensions".format(sku))
print("Price per hours for OnDemand t2.nano effective from {}: {}".format(
        publish_date,
        price_tree.execute("$.terms.OnDemand.'{}'.priceDimensions.'{}'.pricePerUnit".format(sku, rateCode))
        ))

Here is output looks like

(python3-env1) nasilemak:Developments hiuy$ python3 aws_pricing.py

Finding out more on aws instances

hi all,

There is a quick way for you print all of the aws instances. Here is the small python code to help you. However, you do need to install boto3 library before everything starts to work. Please read the README.md to set thing up.

https://github.com/yenonn/server-inventory/blob/master/aws/aws_lib.py

The small function of show_ec2_instances will help you to print out all of the instances. Enjoy!

Potential problem to start name node after kerberizing HDP2.6

hi all,

Not sure this could be the potential problem that you will be facing. But, I have faced the same problem for twice when enable the kerberos on HDP2.6. Here is the log that you can find out from the log file.

  1. 2017-09-19 02:56:17,375 - Execute['ambari-sudo.sh su hdfs -l -s /bin/bash -c 'ulimit -c unlimited ; /usr/hdp/current/hadoop-client/sbin/hadoop-daemon.sh --config /usr/hdp/current/hadoop-client/conf start namenode''] {'environment': {'HADOOP_LIBEXEC_DIR': '/usr/hdp/current/hadoop-client/libexec'}, 'not_if': 'ambari-sudo.sh -H -E test -f /var/run/hadoop/hdfs/hadoop-hdfs-namenode.pid && ambari-sudo.sh -H -E pgrep -F /var/run/hadoop/hdfs/hadoop-hdfs-namenode.pid'}

After all, when you dig more details at the hadoop-hdfs.log. You will find out log file as below.

Caused by: javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: Receive timed out at com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule.attemptAuthentication(Krb5LoginModule.java:808) at com.sun.security.auth.module.Krb5LoginModule.login(Krb5LoginModule.java:617) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498) at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.invoke(LoginContext.java:755) at javax.security.auth.login.LoginContext.access$000(LoginContext.java:195) at 


Please pay attention at the highlighted line. With the hint above, basically we can find out cause of problem due to the communication time out in between the KDC server. There is a useful link that documented the problem.



The solution on this problem will be adding a line to krb5.conf under the [libdefaults] section:

udp_preference_limit = 1

There is a small trick to make this setting available on all nodes within the cluster. You have to go to ambari > kerberos > Configs > Advanced krb5-conf to make the change.

Hope that helps. Thanks for reading.

Parsing XML hadoop files

hi all,

I find reading the cloudera hadoop xml files are a most tedious job in this world. Partly, some of the xml files, e.g. hdfs-site.xml and yarn-site.xml are too long and repetitive. So, I am thinking of an idea to read the xml files with a python parser and print it out to stdout and to an output file (.out). It has the name = value pattern. With that, my eyes will be way.. comfortable reading it. I would like to share the simple python code with you.

from xml.etree import ElementTree
import os
import sys

input_file_name = sys.argv[1]
full_file_name = os.path.abspath(input_file_name)
file_name = input_file_name.split('.')[0]+'.out'

dom = ElementTree.parse(full_file_name)
property = dom.findall('property')

with open(file_name, 'w') as write_xml_conf:
  for p in property:
    name = p.find('name').text
    value = p.find('value').text
    print("{} = {}".format(name, value))
    write_xml_conf.write("{} = {}\n".format(name, value))

Here is the output of the script. With the standard output printed on the screen, I have written the same output to a file too.

[root@ip-172-31-9-77 21-yarn-NODEMANAGER]# decode_xml.py hdfs-site.xml
dfs.namenode.name.dir = file:///dfs/nn
dfs.namenode.servicerpc-address = ip-172-31-14-234.ap-southeast-1.compute.internal:8022
dfs.https.address = ip-172-31-14-234.ap-southeast-1.compute.internal:50470
dfs.https.port = 50470
dfs.namenode.http-address = ip-172-31-14-234.ap-southeast-1.compute.internal:50070
dfs.replication = 3
dfs.blocksize = 134217728
dfs.client.use.datanode.hostname = false
fs.permissions.umask-mode = 022
dfs.namenode.acls.enabled = false
dfs.client.use.legacy.blockreader = false
dfs.client.read.shortcircuit = false
dfs.domain.socket.path = /var/run/hdfs-sockets/dn
dfs.client.read.shortcircuit.skip.checksum = false
dfs.client.domain.socket.data.traffic = false
dfs.datanode.hdfs-blocks-metadata.enabled = true

With this small script, I could discover more xml files from cloudera, especially those reside at /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process/

[root@ip-172-31-9-77 process]# cd /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process/
[root@ip-172-31-9-77 process]# find . -type f -name *.xml

yarn application stops when uid is too low


hi all,

Just want to share the experience when the min.user.id has not changed by default, no yarn application could be submitted. Usually, you will have something like below.

Diagnostics: Application application_1500628462670_0096 initialization failed (exitCode=255) with output: main : command provided 0
main : run as user is hiuy
main : requested yarn user is hiuy
Requested user hiuy is not whitelisted and has id 501,which is below the minimum allowed 1000

Failing this attempt. Failing the application.
 ApplicationMaster host: N/A
 ApplicationMaster RPC port: -1
 queue: root.users.hiuy
 start time: 1500632228942
 final status: FAILED
 user: hiuy

In order to solve the problem, you could either bump up the UID for the yarn application user to any integer value that above 1000, or you could set the min.user.id at YARN configuration. Make sure that you need to restart YARN when after the configuration alteration is done.

Hope that helps. Thanks!

Python code: python acting like awk

hi all,

I am really love to use unix utility such as "awk". It is useful when I wish to retrieve a certain column in a delimited file, e.g. /etc/passwd. I believe everyone should know. It is simple and easy.

root@lynx-vm:~# cat /etc/passwd | awk -F":" '{print $1}'
root
daemon
bin
sys
sync
games
man
lp
mail
news
uucp
proxy


However, I would like to show you on how to get it done with Python. Personally, I have struggled a lot when doing a similar operation in unix command, as compared in Python. Hope that small tricks could save your times.

>>>
>>>
>>> passwdlines = [ line.split(":") for line in open("/etc/passwd") if "#" not in line]
>>> passwdlines[:5]
[['root', 'x', '0', '0', 'root', '/root', '/bin/bash\n'], ['daemon', 'x', '1', '1', 'daemon', '/usr/sbin', '/usr/sbin/nologin\n'], ['bin', 'x', '2', '2', 'bin', '/bin', '/usr/sbin/nologin\n'], ['sys', 'x', '3', '3', 'sys', '/dev', '/usr/sbin/nologin\n'], ['sync', 'x', '4', '65534', 'sync', '/bin', '/bin/sync\n']]
>>> 


If you would like to know the first column.
>>>
>>> firstcolumn = [column[0] for column in passwdlines]
>>>
>>>
>>> firstcolumn[:5]
['root', 'daemon', 'bin', 'sys', 'sync']
>>> 


If you would like to know the line contains "root".
>>>
>>> rootline = [ line for line in passwdlines if "root" in line]
>>>
>>>
>>> rootline
[['root', 'x', '0', '0', 'root', '/root', '/bin/bash\n']]

Python code: Calculating stack of balanced brackets in a string

Hi

I am solving the problem of a string of brackets, to detect if the string of brackets are matching and balanced. e.g. a string like following:


[]][{]{(({{)[})(}[[))}{}){[{]}{})()[{}]{{]]]){{}){({(}](({[{[{)]{)}}}({[)}}([{{]]({{
or 
(}{(()[][[){{}{{[}][]{{{{[{{[](}{)}](}}()]}(}(}}]}[](]]){{{()}({[[}}{{[]}(]}{(]{}}[()(}]{[[]{){{

I felt this is something fun and challenging to do. if you have good and creative answers, or detecting my code is buggy for some cases please keep me posted. Thanks!

def is_matched(expression):
    DictBracket = {"{":"}", "[":"]", "(":")"}
    OpenBracket = []
    for counter, char in iter(enumerate(expression)):
        if char in DictBracket.keys():
            OpenBracket.append(char)
        else:
            if counter == 0 and char not in DictBracket.keys():
                return False            
            if counter > 0 and char in DictBracket.values():
                if len(OpenBracket) and DictBracket[OpenBracket.pop()] in char:
                    continue                
            else:
                    return False    
     return len(OpenBracket) == 0
expression = input().strip()
if is_matched(expression) == True:
 print("YES")
else:
 print("NO")

HDFS Explorer

Hi all,

Hadoop HDFS command is good. But somehow it becomes hair-wired when we have a long arguments inputs. Those are error-prone and tedious to structure one. So with this notion of in mind, I just developed a wrapper script to facilitate this operation. Easy to install, easy to use too. Here is more descriptions and details about the tool.

Thank you.

Example of the output:

Hadoop explorer
HDFS > ls /
 * Running: hdfs dfs -ls /
