             Summary: Add spark-ec2 options to assigned launched instances into IAM roles and to set instance-initiated shutdown behavior
                 Key: SPARK-8576
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8576
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: EC2
            Reporter: Nicholas Chammas
            Priority: Minor


There are 2 EC2 options that would be useful to add.

* One is the ability to assign IAM roles to launched instances.
* The other is the ability to configure instances to self-terminate when they initiate a shutdown.

Both of these options are useful when spark-ec2 is being used as part of an automated pipeline and the engineers want to minimize the need to pass around AWS keys for access (replaced by IAM role) and to be able to launch a cluster that can terminate itself cleanly.
