I need to export DynamoDB table to s3 bucket. I'm using this article: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/DynamoDBPipeline.html.

in Amazon EMR i found error:

__ Cluster: EmrClusterForBackup_2016-10-05T12:33:02Terminated with errorsNo subnet found in default VPC. At least one subnet is required. __

Maybe someone have faces similar error. I know the error is like self-explaining, but I'm new to AWS, probably might be missing something, and maybe something obvious.

Anyway, would be thankful for all the points.

Ivan.

are there any actual subnets in that default VPC?

If no: follow these instructions to create / add one: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonVPC/latest/UserGuide/VPC_Subnets.html#AddaSubnet

If yes: this may be a DynamoDB bug.

AWS Support helped in resolving this issue.

I needed to add to data pipeline properties subnetid identifier for the EMR cluster to proceed with exporting.

steps:

  • select your pipeline and click on actions -> edit pipeline
  • select the resource EmrCluster (EmrClusterForBackup) and add optional field Subnet Id.
  • locate subnets for your default VPC and provide it in this field
