"LOST" node in EMR Cluster


EMR nodes are ephemeral and you cannot recover them once they are marked as LOST. You can avoid this in first place by enabling 'Termination Protection' feature during a cluster launch.

Regarding finding reason for LOST node, you can probably check YARN ResourceManager logs and/or Instance controller logs of your cluster to find out more about root cause.
