---------------------------------------

             Summary: Reduce number of tagging calls in spark-ec2
                 Key: SPARK-7900
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-7900
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: EC2
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
            Reporter: Nicholas Chammas
            Priority: Minor


spark-ec2 currently tags each instance with its own name:

https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/4615081d7a10b023491e25478d19b8161e030974/ec2/spark_ec2.py#L684-L692

Quite often, one of these tagging calls will fail:

{code}

Launched 10 slaves in us-west-2a, regid = r-89656e83
Launched master in us-west-2a, regid = r-07646f0d

{code}

This is presumably a problem with AWS metadata taking time to become available on all the servers that spark-ec2 hits as it makes the several tagging calls.

Instead of retrying the tagging calls, we should just reduce them to 2 calls--one for the master, one for the slaves.
