    Description

      spark-ec2 launches EC2 instances with no names. It would be nice if it gave each instance it launched a descriptive name.

      I suggest:

      spark-{spark-cluster-name}-{master,slave}-{instance-id}
      

      For example, the instances of a Spark cluster called prod1 would have the following names:

      spark-prod1-master-i-18a1f548
      spark-prod1-slave-i-01a1f551
      spark-prod1-slave-i-04a1f554
      spark-prod1-slave-i-05a1f555
      spark-prod1-slave-i-06a1f556
      

      Amazon implements instance names as tags, so that's what would need to be set for each launched instance.
