5.2.0 release notes

The following release notes include information for the Amazon EMR 5.2.0 release. Changes are relative to the Amazon EMR 5.1.0 release.

Release date: November 21, 2016

Changes and enhancements
  • Added Amazon S3 storage mode for HBase.

  • Enables you to specify an Amazon S3 location for the HBase rootdir. For more information, see HBase on Amazon S3.

Upgrades
  • Upgraded to Spark 2.0.2

Known issues resolved from previous releases
  • Fixed an issue with /mnt being constrained to 2 TB on EBS-only instance types.

  • Fixed an issue with instance-controller and logpusher logs being output to their corresponding .out files instead of to their normal log4j-configured .log files, which rotate hourly. The .out files do not rotate, so this would eventually fill up the /emr partition. This issue only affects hardware virtual machine (HVM) instance types.

5.2.0 component versions

The components that Amazon EMR installs with this release are listed below. Some are installed as part of big-data application packages. Others are unique to Amazon EMR and installed for system processes and features. These typically start with emr or aws. Big-data application packages in the most recent Amazon EMR release are usually the latest version found in the community. We make community releases available in Amazon EMR as quickly as possible.

Some components in Amazon EMR differ from community versions. These components have a version label in the form CommunityVersion-amzn-EmrVersion. The EmrVersion starts at 0. For example, if open source community component named myapp-component with version 2.2 has been modified three times for inclusion in different Amazon EMR releases, its release version is listed as 2.2-amzn-2.
