So as it is, it is too cumbersome to implement and for sure hard to document so someone inexperienced can follow easily. </div><div><br></div><div>The quickest least painful solution that may be open for me now would be to try the plugin pointed to by <a href="https://github.com/scrappythekangaroo">scrappythekangaroo</a> about 3 months ago in:</div><div><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 19px; white-space: nowrap; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875); -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-text-size-adjust: none; "><a href="https://github.com/jtriley/StarCluster/issues/44">https://github.com/jtriley/StarCluster/issues/44</a></span></div><div><br></div><div>So unless you can fix the 0.94 installation quick, I will have to try the plugin solution in hope it fully resolves the issue. </div><div><br></div><div>I hope I can reach an easy and quick solution for increasing the available disk space. </div><div><br></div><div> Jacob</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Sent from my iPhone</div><div><br>On Jul 28, 2013, at 10:04 PM, Rayson Ho <<a href="mailto:raysonlogin@gmail.com">raysonlogin@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div><span>I believe you are hitting this bug:</span><br><span></span><br><span><a href="https://github.com/jtriley/StarCluster/pull/147">https://github.com/jtriley/StarCluster/pull/147</a></span><br><span></span><br><span>And I verified that 0.93.3 does not have the fix, and 0.94 or the dev</span><br><span>version should be fine.</span><br><span></span><br><span>Rayson</span><br><span></span><br><span>==================================================</span><br><span>Open Grid Scheduler - The Official Open Source Grid Engine</span><br><span><a href="http://gridscheduler.sourceforge.net/">http://gridscheduler.sourceforge.net/</a></span><br><span></span><br><span></span><br><span>On Sun, Jul 28, 2013 at 3:58 AM, Jacob Barhak <<a href="mailto:jacob.barhak@gmail.com">jacob.barhak@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span><br><blockquote type="cite"><span>Hello,</span><br></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><span></span><br></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><span>Perhaps someone in the group can help out with using an EBS volume.</span><br></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><span></span><br></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><span>I created an EBS volume and want to launch a cluster that uses it.
