How to start, stop and re-start cluster manually in Bluemix Spark?

Question

What is the simplest way to start and stop Spark clusters manually in Bluemix? I would basically want to run the same things that

sbin/start-all.sh

and

sbin/stop-all.sh

do on a standalone Spark installment.

Answer 1

You can't. The Apache Spark service in Bluemix runs clusters that are shared by many users. No user is allowed to shut down or start these clusters.
