<div dir="ltr">To Starcluster Mailing Archives and future self:<br><br>I couldn't diagnose the source of the problem, but there's a hacky workaround.<br><br>Find cluster.py in the installation. I found it here:<br>
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/StarCluster-0.9999-py2.7.egg/starcluster/cluster.py<br>If its not there, check the installation path that's written to terminal during the installation (if you can).<br><br>Look for the function wait_for_active_spots (it was around line 1360, they're different in 0.9999 and 0.95)<br>
At the top of the function, after the comments, add:<br>hackStop = raw_input('Hit Return When all nodes are up...')<br>Save, exit, and recompile cluster.py (better to make an old copy just in case).<br><br>This change will have the effect of hanging the program after starcluster sends spot requests. Watch the EC2 console and wait for the spot requests to be filled.<br>
When they are ALL in a running state, hit enter. Addnode should then proceed as usual. If you're not adding node (if its your intial spot cluster start), you can hit enter and let the program do the waiting, only addnode needs to be manually overseen.<br>
