Monitoring vertical autoscaling for Amazon EMR on EKS

You can use the kubectl Kubernetes command line tool to list the active, vertical autoscaling-related recommendations on your cluster. You can also view your tracked job signatures, and purge any unneeded resources that are associated with the signatures.

List the vertical autoscaling recommendations for your cluster

Use kubectl to get the verticalpodautoscaler resource, and view the current status and recommendations. The following example query returns all active resources on your Amazon EKS cluster.

kubectl get verticalpodautoscalers \
-o custom-columns="NAME:.metadata.name,"\
"SIGNATURE:.metadata.labels.emr-containers\.amazonaws\.com/dynamic\.sizing\.signature,"\
"MODE:.spec.updatePolicy.updateMode,"\
"MEM:.status.recommendation.containerRecommendations[0].target.memory" \
--all-namespaces

The output from this query resembles the following:

NAME                  SIGNATURE                MODE      MEM
ds-example-id-1-vpa   job-signature-1          Off       none
ds-example-id-2-vpa   job-signature-2          Initial   12936384283

Query and delete the vertical autoscaling recommendations for your cluster

When you delete an Amazon EMR vertical autoscaling job-run resource, it automatically deletes the associated VPA object that tracks and stores recommendations.

The following example uses kubectl to purge recommendations for a job that is identified by a signature:

kubectl delete jobrun -n emr -l=emr-containers\.amazonaws\.com/dynamic\.sizing\.signature=integ-test
jobrun.dynamicsizing.emr.services.k8s.aws "ds-job-signature" deleted

If you don't know the specific job signature, or want to purge all of the resources on the cluster, you can use --all or --all-namespaces in your command instead of the unique job ID, as shown in the following example:

kubectl delete jobruns --all --all-namespaces
jobrun.dynamicsizing.emr.services.k8s.aws "ds-example-id" deleted
