Amazon EMR WAL (EMRWAL) CLI reference

The EMRWAL Command Line Interface (EMRWAL CLI) is a unified tool to manage your write-ahead log (WAL) for Amazon EMR. The EMRWAL CLI ships with EMR clusters when you enable WAL at the time that you create a cluster. For more information about enabling WAL, see Write-ahead logs (WAL) for Amazon EMR.

The EMRWAL CLI includes the following commands:

createWorkspace

The createWorkspace command creates a new Amazon EMR WAL workspace.

emrwal createWorkspace [-tags <tags>] [-e {endpoint}] [-r {Region}] -w {workspacename} [-h]

Example:

aws emr createWorkspace -w examplews

deleteWal

The deleteWals command deletes the Amazon EMR WAL that you specify.

Usage:

emrwal deleteWal [-e {endpoint}] [-r {Region}] [-w {workspacename}] [-p <tablePrefix>] [-n <walName>] [-N <fullName>] [-R] [-m] [-h]

Example:

emrwal deleteWal -w examplews -p hbasetable -n examplewal

deleteWorkspace

The deleteWorkspace command deletes the Amazon EMR WAL workspace that you specify.

Usage:

emrwal deleteWorkspace [-e {endpoint}] [-r {Region}] -w {workspacename} [-h]

Example:

emrwal deleteWorkspace -w examplews

listTagsForResource

The listTagsForResource command lists all of the key-value pair tags for the Amazon EMR WAL workspace that you specify.

Usage:

emrwal listTagsForResource -arn {resource-arn} [-e {endpoint}] [-r {Region}] [-h]

emrwal listTagsForResource -arn arn:aws:emrwal::1234567891234:workspace/examplews

listWals

The listWals command lists all of the Amazon EMR WALs in the workspace that you specify.

Usage:

emrwal listWals [-nextToken {token-string}] [-pageSize {integer}] [-e {endpoint}] [-r {Region}] [-w {workspacename}] [-p <tablePrefix>] [-M {integer}] [-h]
