Why is an Amazon EMR step running even though my application on the YARN completed?
An Amazon EMR step is still in the RUNNING state even though the respective Apache Spark or YARN application completed.
"An Amazon EMR step is still in the RUNNING state even though the respective Apache Spark or YARN application completed.ResolutionUse one of the following methods to resolve the issue:Validate the status of respective YARN application and then end the step.Cancel the Step ID manually using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI).Validate the status of the YARN application and then end the step1.    Identify the YARN applicationId from the step logs stderr file. For more information, see How do I troubleshoot a failed step in Amazon EMR?2.    Connect to the primary node using SSH.3.    Use the following YARN command to find the state of the YARN application. In the following example command, replace application_id with your application ID. An example application ID is application_1234567891011_001.yarn application -status application_idOr, use the following YARN command to list all applications:yarn application -list -appStates ALL4.    Check the output of the preceding command for the state of the application.Application-States: [NEW, NEW_SAVING, SUBMITTED, ACCEPTED, RUNNING, FINISHED, FAILED, KILLED]The following is example output of an application that completed successfully:Progress : 100%State : FINISHEDFinal-State : SUCCEEDEDIf the output of the preceding command has the states FINISHED, FAILED, or KILLED, then the YARN application is completed.If the application status is NEW, NEW_SAVING, SUBMITTED, ACCEPTED, or RUNNING then the YARN application is still running. Wait for the application to complete or end the application to cancel the step.7.    Run the following command to end the application. In the following example command, replace application_id with your application ID. An example application ID is application_1234567891011_001.yarn application -kill application_id8.    Check the status of the Amazon EMR step again after ending the application.Cancel the Amazon EMR step manually using the AWS CLINote: If you receive errors when running AWS CLI commands make sure that you’re using the most recent version of the AWS CLI.1.    Use the describe-step command to view the step's status. In the following command, replace cluster-id and step-id with the correct values for your use case.aws emr describe-step --cluster-id j-xxxxxxxxxxxxx --step-ids s-xxxxxxxx2.    Use the cancel-steps command to cancel the step. In the following command, replace cluster-id and step-id with the correct values for your use case.aws emr cancel-steps --cluster-id j-xxxxxxxxxxxxx \--step-ids s-3M8DXXXXXXXXX \--step-cancellation-option SEND_INTERRUPTFor more information, see Canceling steps.Follow"
