title: Does spark standalone cluster supports deploye mode = cluster for python applications?
body: <p>I was going through the spark guide 2.1.0 and saw the following line 
  on  <a href="http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/submitting-applications.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/submitting-applications.html</a>
  Currently, standalone mode does not support cluster mode for Python applications.</p>
  
  <p>But below that they have an example 
   Run on a Spark standalone cluster in cluster deploy mode with supervise</p>
  
  <pre><code>./bin/spark-submit \
    --class org.apache.spark.examples.SparkPi \
    --master spark://207.184.161.138:7077 \
    --deploy-mode cluster \
    --supervise \
    --executor-memory 20G \
    --total-executor-cores 100 \
    /path/to/examples.jar \
    1000
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>now i am confused... at one point they are saying that cluster mode is not supported for spark standalone cluster for python application but on the other hand they have given an example where they have deploye-mode = cluster for python application with spark standalone cluster
  can anyone correct me if my interpretation is wrong ??</p>
